When to use
Reach for Hy3 on general-purpose coding and agentic workflows that fit a 262K-token context: multi-file edits, tool-using agents, and everyday code generation. Tencent ships it Apache-2.0 as a 295B Mixture-of-Experts model that activates 21B parameters per token, so you get a large-model knowledge base at a mid-tier per-token price. Tencent reports ~78 on SWE-Bench Verified.
When to use something else
For tasks that need more than 262K tokens of context, use a 1M-context model such as Qwen 3.7 Flash, MiniMax M3, or Kimi K3. For the lowest token price, Qwen 3.7 Flash costs less; for frontier reasoning, use DeepSeek V4 Pro or Kimi K3.

FAQ
Tencent describes Hy3 as an Apache-2.0 open-weight 295B-parameter Mixture-of-Experts model that activates 21B parameters per token, with a 262K-token context window. It supports `reasoning_effort` values including `no_think`, `low`, and `high`; QSP defaults to direct non-thinking output.
Yes — Hy3 is an OpenAI-compatible chat completions endpoint on QuickSilver Pro. Set base_url=https://api.quicksilverpro.io/v1, paste your QSP key, and use model="hy3". Streaming, tool calling, json_schema strict mode, and usage.cost accounting all work. Migration is a base_url + key swap, dropping the `tencent/` provider prefix from the model ID.
QuickSilver Pro lists Hy3 at $0.1056 input / $0.4224 output per 1M tokens — 20% below Tencent's current $0.132 / $0.528 OpenRouter rate. QSP pins Tencent's official endpoint for consistent reasoning behavior; drop the `tencent/` prefix when migrating.
