Released August 26, it brings MLX support for Qwen3.8 Flash Next, adds structured output to mlxrunner, and stops Metal GPU timeouts when loading models from slow storage (GitHub). Structured output on the MLX path is the practical unlock: Apple Silicon local inference can now be driven by JSON-schema-constrained tool calls the same way the llama.cpp path already could.

AlexsJones/llmfit released v1.1.10 today, adding RamaLama runtime discovery to its MCP server, the Qwen3.8 model family and MiniMax M3 vision capability exposure (GitHub). It also merged 32 MLX benchmark results on an Apple M4 Pro, the project's first MLX entries, giving an ap...
For about a year, "run your agent locally" meant accepting a model that couldn't reliably call a tool twice in a row. That excuse is gone. Meta Superintelligence Labs published Muse Glimmer today: a 29.6B dense causal transformer, 52 layers, 6,656 hidden dim, with a ~1.8B ViT-...
Tauri 2 desktop app with a Three.js globe and deck.gl maps, ingesting 500+ feeds across 92 exchanges, using Ollama/Groq/OpenRouter for synthesis (GitHub). A mature open-source alternative to commercial intelligence platforms, and a clean example of local model inference doing...
The July 6 release delivers nearly 90% faster Gemma 4 token generation through multi-token prediction with automatic draft-length tuning, on by default, output-preserving, no config (Ollama). It also adds MLX-engine support for more model families and flash attention for older...
This Chrome/Firefox extension drives your existing authenticated tabs, spins up sandboxed JS notebooks and WASM Linux VMs, and (in preview) shares builds peer-to-peer over WebRTC, with no backend, no telemetry, and bring-your-own-key for Anthropic, OpenRouter, or Ollama (GitHu...
An MIT-licensed, local-first AI workspace published around May 31 that reached roughly 54,000 stars and 6,300 forks by June 5. It bundles chat over local and remote models (vLLM, llama.cpp, Ollama, OpenRouter, OpenAI), autonomous agents with bash/files/web/memory tools plus MC...
