 Mail is a first-class corpus (retrievable through the same search):
 
 ```bash
 bin/mail/sync.go --source onlyoffice,gmail --workers 8 --out var/mail  # raw sync (Go)
 bin/mail/import.go --from-raw var/mail                                  # JSON → markdown

+2dph is the memory/fact gate. Compose profile `picoclaw` runs the official

+
+There is **no official Qwen3.6-9B**. Do not invent that id.
+
+Qwen3.5-9B has documented upstream tool-call XML bugs. A 9B win on tools
+is only claimed if this bake-off records OpenAI `tool_calls` (not
+`<tool_call>` XML in `content`).
+
+The 2dph API image does not `COPY` GGUF/safetensors. Pull at runtime into
+the `reasoner-ollama` volume.

+`device: cpu`, `vram_mb: 0`. Date: 2026-08-13. Same three prompts
+(`search` / `get` / `audit`). PicoClaw binary was not used; the OpenAI
+tools payload is the surface it would send.

+| `Qwen/Qwen3.6-27B` | `Qwen/Qwen3.6-27B` | not loaded | — | — | too heavy for this CPU box |
+
+Both loaded models emitted OpenAI `tool_calls` (not `<tool_call>` XML) on
+this runtime. **Do not claim 9B is better at tools** — the score is tied
+at 3/3. 9B is smaller and faster. Bonsai RSS includes weights + KV
