Try Ember-1 to cut Kimi K3 reasoning tokens by about 40%

Fireworks Research released Ember-1, a Kimi K3 derivative trained to reason in about 40% fewer tokens while holding quality steady, cutting output cost and context growth for long coding and agent sessions. Artificial Analysis separately measured roughly 80% more tokens per task on Claude Opus 5.5, nearly canceling its 20% price cut and cheaper cache reads. NVIDIA also released OpenShell 0.1.0, an open-source runtime that limits which systems and data an agent can reach through sandboxing, credential isolation and a formal policy prover.
