# Ollama 0.40.8 adds Recursive Flint coding model with 262K-token context

> **Key takeaway:** Ollama's latest release integrates Recursive's Apache 2.0-licensed Flint model, a 40B-parameter MoE coding assistant currently limited to macOS.

## Summary
Ollama 0.40.8 ships with support for Recursive Flint, a coding-focused large language model designed for repository-level agent tasks. Flint is a 40B-parameter mixture-of-experts model with 2.5B active parameters per token and a 262K-token context window. The model is available under the Apache 2.0 license but currently runs only on macOS, with broader GPU support planned for a future release.

## Flint model specifications and availability
- **Architecture**: 40B-parameter mixture-of-experts (MoE) with ~2.5B active parameters per token
- **Context window**: 262K tokens for multi-file repository work
- **Capabilities**: Reasoning, multi-turn tool use, code understanding, bug tracing, feature implementation, test generation
- **Benchmarks**: 54.9% on Terminal-Bench 2.1, 74.2% on SWE-bench Verified (per Recursive's evaluation)
- **License**: Apache 2.0
- **Platform support**: macOS only at launch; other GPU support deferred to subsequent release

## Why it matters
The integration gives Ollama users access to a permissively licensed coding model competitive on SWE-bench, though the macOS-only launch limits immediate adoption among Linux-focused developers.
