Jupiter-N Technical Report

We present Jupiter-N, a hybrid reasoning model post-trained from Nemotron 3 Super, a fully open-source 120 billion parameter LLM. We target three objectives: (1) agentic capability via uncertainty-curated trajectories; (2) UK cultural alignment via synthetic data grounded in cultural norms; and (3) Welsh language support via parallel corpora and LLM-translated Welsh conversations. Our data curation strategy carefully preserves the base model's capabilities: using our Forget-Me-Not framework, we mix on-policy synthetic replay with off-policy task data to mitigate catastrophic forgetting, and include a mixture of reasoning and non-reasoning traces to maintain Nemotron's hybrid reasoning ability. Jupiter-N achieves standout gains over Nemotron in Welsh (+18 on ARC-Easy, +5.25 on MMLU-Lite), terminal-use (+9.1 on Terminal Bench 2) and instruction following (+4.4 on IFBench), while retaining the base model capabilities. We frame this work as a reproducible template for sovereign post-training: substituting cultural knowledge, institutional corpora, and target languages produces an equivalent pipeline for any country. All model weights and all post-training datasets are publicly released under open licences.
