It is , so it can connect to or cloud models. The main tested setup is Linux with llama.cpp and Qwen 3.6 27b Q8, where it is reported to be stable.
Results may change with other models, and Gemma 4 did not work well in this setup. The tool has been used for coding, with Ghidra, building tools, writing OpenSCAD with , and online research.
