+### Decision 3.0
+
+The Decision 3.0 models ([`vllm-sr/d3`](https://huggingface.co/vllm-sr/d3) and
+its smaller variants such as `vllm-sr/d3-mini` and `vllm-sr/d3-edge`) are a
+Qwen3.5 backbone with an answer-code readout: one forward pass per question,
+and the readout scores the question's options at the last token. vLLM detects
+the checkpoint's `decision_config.json` and serves it as a classification
+model.
+
+```bash
+vllm serve vllm-sr/d3
+```
+
+- Each question is one read of the prompt the checkpoint's `d3_format.py`
+  writes: the state, the question and one line per option under an answer
+  code. A question's probabilities are the softmax of its options' code
+  logits at the checkpoint's temperature, so picks and probabilities match
+  `model.system_one()`. `confidence` and `usage` follow the definitions on
+  this page instead.
+- A choice can have up to 255 options. A JSON state is written as JSON text,
+  and an empty state as `(empty)`.
+- The full attention layers read the whole prompt in both directions, as the
+  checkpoint declares, so chunked prefill and prefix caching are off.
+- `instructions` returns 400, since the prompt is fixed.
+  `chat_template_kwargs` has no effect.
+- `images` and `videos` are placed before the text, images read at up to
+  1.6 megapixels and videos at 2 fps, at most 32 frames of up to
+  0.2 megapixels each, as the checkpoint's runtime does. The media are read
+  once and shared by every question of the request.
+- `/classify` and `/pooling` return the raw logits of all 255 codes; only the
+  first codes, one per option, belong to a question.
