+  description: |
+    NVIDIA Nemotron 3.5 Lightning is a text-only hybrid Mamba-2, attention, and
+    mixture-of-experts model with 30B total parameters and 3B active parameters.
+    It targets reasoning, coding, tool use, multilingual chat, and long-context
+    agent workflows, with a context window of up to one million tokens.
+
+    This entry uses the official Q4_K_M GGUF. Automatic variant selection can
+    choose the smaller NVFP4 build or the higher-quality Q8_0 build when it fits.
