On-Device Deep Research at 4B: Exposure Bounds Faithfulness, Retrieval Bounds Coverage

arXiv:2607.12257v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: On-device research agents search a corpus, read sources, and write a cited brief on a personal laptop. Whether their citations are faithful, and at what cost, is unmeasured for a deployable small model. This study fixes one 4B generator on a 24 GB laptop and asks what m
