Hunyuan Hy3 preview is designed for agent workloads, adopting a MoE architecture with 295B capacity and 21B activated parameters. It provides three modes within the same model—no_think (ultra-fast response), think_low (fast thinking), and think_high (deep reasoning)—to accommodate different latency and depth requirements from high-frequency interactions to complex engineering tasks. On code benchmarks such as SWE-bench Verified it approaches the current state of the art, and its 256K context supports cross-file code refactoring and long-document analysis. It is suitable for developers who require reliable task completion while being sensitive to inference costs.
