Local model
local Performs the AI functions assigned to it with a model on your own hardware, through any server that speaks the OpenAI API: Ollama, LM Studio, llama.cpp or vLLM. Nothing is sent to a provider.
Setup
Connect to your model server
- Enter the address of the OpenAI-compatible server you run, ending
/v1. On this machine, by its default port:Server Address Ollama http://host.docker.internal:11434/v1 LM Studio http://host.docker.internal:1234/v1 llama.cpp http://host.docker.internal:9931/v1 vLLM http://host.docker.internal:8000/v1 - On another machine, use its address instead, such as
http://gpu.example:11434/v1. - On Linux, a server on this machine has to listen on an address other than
127.0.0.1, and hosted apps can reach it there too. - Enter an API key only if the server requires one:
--api-keyforllama-serverorvllm serve, Require Authentication in LM Studio.
- Enter the address of the OpenAI-compatible server you run, ending
Choose a model
- Enter the model's name as the server serves it:

- Enter the model's name as the server serves it:
