In plain language

A bot can now run on a local model with nothing else installed — no Claude Code, no Codex, no account. Just Ollama (or LM Studio / oMLX / EXO / Unsloth) running on the machine.

  • What changes in the app: a new "Local models" engine in the model picker (below the rail, with the other custom engines). If Ollama is installed but not running, its card says "Start Ollama" with ollama serve and a "Start in Terminal" button — not an install card. Once it's up, the models you've pulled appear, running ones first and flagged, and you pick one like any other model.
  • What kind of bot you get: a plain chat bot — streams token by token, remembers the thread — with no tools, no computer, no approvals (it's a bare API; the card's capabilities say so). When you do have Claude Code or Codex installed, keep using the existing route where a CLI is pointed at Ollama — that one keeps tools.
  • If the host goes away mid-conversation you get a clear "no model to run — Ollama isn't running…", not a hang.

Why this shape

main already covers local models by injecting them into installed agent CLIs (#174/#177): the better route when a CLI exists. The plan's 3.1 "done when" — a bot runs on a locally pulled model with no cloud credentials configured anywhere — still failed on a CLI-less machine. This fills exactly that gap and nothing more.

Changes

  • server/drivers/local.ts — factored from grok.ts: OpenAI-shaped /v1/chat/completions SSE client, transcript replay (fed by the harness's rebuild), generateText, system role (not developer — local servers know the classic shape), bearer on keyless hosts (some hide models without one). Hosts from LOCAL_HOSTS or { host: "custom", url }. Catalog from the host: /v1/models = pulled, /api/ps (Ollama) = running (+ real contextWindow from Let a message reach a running Claude turn (steer), one process per session #219's contextWindowsFromPs); refreshModels() re-probes without a restart. Capabilities: computerMcp/agentsMcp/composioMcp/queueing all false.
  • server/contracts.tsProviderSnapshot.notRunning?: boolean (additive). EngineSetup.tsx — when set and install.signInCommand exists, the card is "Start X" with that command.
  • server/drivers/builtIn.ts / server/config.ts — registered; a default local (Ollama) instance ships into existing fleets the same way Qwen/Hermes did (CUSTOM_ONLY).
  • Install descriptor: brew install ollama / the curl installer for linux, docs link, signInCommand: ollama serve (the "start it" slot).

Not in scope: vLLM as a named host (use custom), tools for the bare API (the injected-CLI route is for that), model-free tool-result pruning (waits for #193's rebuild).

Stacked on #219 (uses contextWindowsFromPs and capabilities.queueing); the diff shrinks to just this driver once #219 lands.

Item 3.1 of docs/plans/agent-harness-upgrades-v2.md.

Test plan

  • server/drivers/local.test.ts (5, against a fake OpenAI-shaped host): catalog from /v1/models + /api/ps (running first, flagged, window), bearer sent; nothing listening → unavailable "isn't running" and a clear send error; a streamed turn (system → transcript → user, system role, usage banked, settles); generateText; interrupt aborts and settles interrupted
  • server/config.test.tslocal in the default fleet and added onto existing product fleets
  • pnpm typecheck clean; pnpm vitest run green (94 files, 924 passed)
  • Manual: on this Mac (Ollama installed, not running) the picker shows the "Start Ollama" card with ollama serve; /api/instances reports notRunning: true with the reason

…ss per session

Verified against claude 2.1.221 with --input-format stream-json: the CLI
settles a turn with `result` while stdin stays OPEN (EOF is the exit
signal, not the turn signal); the next user message on the same stdin is
a new turn in the same process; a message that arrives MID-turn is
delivered before the model's next call and folded into the same turn's
one result. That last behaviour is exactly the "steer" the plan wanted.

- claude.ts keeps one live process per thread across turns: reused while
  idle, unchanged in spawn contract, and the session the harness wants;
  otherwise closed and respawned with --resume. `result` settles the
  turn, not the process; the process closes after 10 minutes idle
  (OMB_CLAUDE_SESSION_IDLE_MS). steer() writes into the open stdin.
- contract: capabilities.queueing and an optional adapter.steer() — the
  one-file driver promise holds; every other driver keeps the 409.
- harness: POST /messages while busy on a queueing engine steers instead
  of 409ing; the message is appended in order and marked `steered`. The
  composer stays open on such engines ("Enter sends this into the running
  turn"); a "sent mid-turn" tag on the bubble says the model saw it.
- 3.1 remainder: injected local models carry contextWindow from Ollama's
  /api/ps context_length when the model is running, so a small model's
  rebuild is sized to what it can hold instead of a name-based guess.
- fake claude rewritten line-driven (steer folding, `slow` mode).

Items 3.2 (and the 3.1 remainder) of docs/plans/agent-harness-upgrades-v2.md.
Answers the plan's open question 3.

…iver

main already reaches local models by INJECTING them into the installed
agent CLIs (Claude Code, Codex, ACP agents pointed at Ollama et al.) —
the right route when a CLI is present, since it keeps tools, approvals
and the computer. What it cannot do is run anything on a machine with
only Ollama or LM Studio and no CLI at all. This is that path.

- server/drivers/local.ts, factored from grok.ts: an OpenAI-shaped SSE
  client spoken to directly, transcript-replay (the harness's rebuild
  feeds it), generateText, `system` role (not `developer`), a bearer on
  keyless hosts (some hide their models without one). Hosts come from
  LOCAL_HOSTS (Ollama, LM Studio, oMLX, EXO, Unsloth) or a custom URL.
- catalog from the HOST: /v1/models is what is pulled, /api/ps (Ollama)
  is what is running — running first and flagged — with each running
  model's real context window; refreshModels() re-probes live.
- detection in the CLI engines' vocabulary: nothing listening →
  unavailable with "Ollama isn't running — start it with `ollama serve`",
  ProviderSnapshot.notRunning, and the setup card offers "Start Ollama"
  (signInCommand) instead of an install; brew/curl install commands when
  it is not installed at all.
- capabilities honest: no MCP, no asks, no computer, no live session — a
  chat bot. Registered in builtIn.ts and shipped into existing fleets as
  `local` (Ollama) the way Qwen/Hermes were.

Item 3.1 of docs/plans/agent-harness-upgrades-v2.md, rescoped to what
main's injection does not cover. Stacked on #219 (uses its
contextWindowsFromPs and capabilities.queueing).

Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~120 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔴 Critical · up to 73e3b

This change adds direct local-model chat and updates CLI session handling, but the current implementation can break approval handling on follow-up turns, misroute or lose messages during steering, and leave background processes running after disposal. Merge should be blocked until the session and steering lifecycle issues are fixed.

dispose leaves live CLI processes running.

stopAll closes every retained session (line 776), but dispose only stops active turns. A session that sits between turns keeps its child process, its broker socket, and its MCP temp file after the instance is disposed. Close the sessions here too.

       dispose: async () => {
         for (const { stop } of active.values()) stop();

The snapshot sets notRunning for a stopped host, and the UI uses that flag to offer "Start Ollama". The test checks only state and reason, so a regression in the flag stays invisible.

Set the stdin encoding before buffering.

buf += c converts each Buffer chunk on its own. A multibyte character split across two reads becomes corrupted text. server/drivers/claude.ts line 665 avoids this on the other side of the pipe with setEncoding("utf8"). Apply the same here so a steered message with non-ASCII text stays intact.

notRunning is derived from prose.

Streaming turns lose the TURN_MS cap.

opts.signal ?? AbortSignal.timeout(TURN_MS) applies the timeout only when the caller passes no signal. sendTurn always passes abort.signal, so a streaming turn against a stalled local server never times out inside the driver. Combine both signals so the cap always applies.

Base-id collision can report the wrong window.

Two running tags from the same family (for example qwen3:8b and qwen3:32b) map to the same base key qwen3. The last row processed wins, so a lookup by base id can return the larger window and size the rebuild above what the smaller model holds. Keep the smallest value for a base key.

The provisional broker destroys the live session's permission socket.

permissionSocketPath(threadId) depends only on threadId (lines 194-197), so every turn on a thread builds its broker on the same socket path. In acceptEdits mode the code creates the broker at line 482 before it knows the session will be reused. createPermissionBroker unlinks the existing socket file and listens on the same path (lines 210-212, 259). The live session's broker then has no socket file, and broker?.close() at line 545 unlinks the path again. After the first follow-up turn on a reused session, the CLI's permission proxy cannot connect, every ask times out, and approvals become silent denials. The same collision applies on the respawn path: the old session's close handler calls session.broker?.close() at line 699 and unlinks the socket the new session already listens on.

Create the broker only on the spawn path, or make the socket path unique per session and keep the session's own broker untouched.

🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

turn.completed carries a field the contract does not declare.

RuntimeEvent for turn.completed declares ok, stopReason, cost, and denials only (server/contracts.ts lines 88-94). The spread adds usage, so TypeScript does not reject it, but typed consumers cannot read it. server/drivers/local.test.ts line 99 asserts on that field, which locks the test to an undeclared shape. Either declare usage on turn.completed in server/contracts.ts, or drop it here and rely on the thread.token-usage.updated event emitted on line 252.

🐛 Proposed fix (drop the undeclared field)
-          emit({ ...base(threadId, turnId), type: "turn.completed", ok: true, stopReason: null, cost: null, ...(usage ? { usage } : {}) });
+          emit({ ...base(threadId, turnId), type: "turn.completed", ok: true, stopReason: null, cost: null });

In `@server/drivers/local.ts` at line 254, Remove the conditional usage spread
from the turn.completed event emitted in the local driver, and update the
corresponding local driver test assertion so it no longer expects usage on that
event. Preserve token usage reporting through the existing
thread.token-usage.updated event.

Align steering eligibility with the active turn.

bot.busy does not prove that busyBot.threadId owns the active provider turn. A room turn marks its member busy but runs on the room thread, so this call attempts to steer a nonexistent personal-thread session. Also, steer() can reject after the provider turn settles while busy is still true. The fallback then calls startTurn(), which rejects with 409 because the store has not folded completion yet.

  • server/index.ts#L2656-L2669: identify the active turn thread before steering. Do not steer a personal-thread message into a room turn. When steering rejects during settlement, wait for completion before dispatching the next turn or return a result the client can safely queue.
  • src/components/Composer.tsx#L51-L54: enable canSteer only when the bot is busy on its personal thread.
  • src/components/Composer.tsx#L143-L143: preserve or queue the message when the direct-send request returns the busy fallback result.
