The default is whichever copy you kept
Several repositories are published, covering different tasks and sizes, and a user chooses which to download. So the starting engine is whichever copy a production already holds, and it stays that way until somebody deliberately fetches another. No page decides it and no page can move it. As of 2026-09-22.
| What the page is asked | What Wan-AI publishes | What that leaves open |
|---|---|---|
| Is a starting tier stated | Not applicable, the user chooses a repository | The listing offers several, by task and size |
| Where the effective default sits | On the production's own storage | It changes only when somebody downloads |
| Can the publisher move it | No, a listing change reaches no copy | Download commands are on the model card |
| What that costs instead | Deciding, fetching and keeping the weights | Operations work rather than a waiting game |
Inclusion rule. Filled when the entry's own public page says which model a new project starts on, or when a single-model menu makes the answer follow from the list having one line. Order. What does not apply first, then where the choice actually lives.
1A default that cannot be changed from outside
On every hosted entry in this column the starting engine is somebody else's to move. Here it is a file on a disk, so the only way it changes is a deliberate act by the team using it.
That is the strongest form of stability in the register and it is not published as a commitment, because it does not need to be. It follows from where the weights live.
2Choosing is real work, and it happens once
The listing covers several repositories with different tasks and sizes, so somebody has to decide which one the pipeline uses. That decision then persists silently, exactly like a hard-coded identifier in a request.
Persisting silently is usually a risk. Here it is the point: a production can finish a season on the same weights it started on, whatever the publisher does to the listing.
3What the arrangement costs in this column's terms
Nobody upgrades you, nobody tells you a better version exists, and nothing warns you that the weights you chose are no longer what the publisher would recommend. Stability and isolation are the same property.
The register records the other side of that trade in the succession reading: no schedule to fear, and an inference stack to keep alive.
