- LLM GlossaryShort definitions of terms used across the AI sheets.
- LM StudioDesktop app for downloading and chatting with local models, with a local OpenAI-compatible server and the lms command line. Suits a workstation more than a…
- Model Context Protocol (MCP)An open protocol that lets AI clients (Claude Code, Claude Desktop, IDEs, Open WebUI and others) call tools and read data exposed by servers. Use it to give an…
- OllamaRun open-weight language models locally with one command and a local HTTP API. Use it as the model backend for Open WebUI, Aider and scripts.
- Open WebUI and Self-Hosted AI StacksOpen WebUI is a self-hosted chat interface for Ollama and any OpenAI-compatible API. Run it with Ollama in Docker Compose for a private ChatGPT-style stack.
- OpenAI APIThe OpenAI HTTP API with curl and the Python SDK, plus how to point OpenAI-compatible clients at local servers such as Ollama and llama.cpp. For the Anthropic…
- Prompting and Context EngineeringPatterns for writing prompts and managing what an agent sees. Applies to Claude, OpenAI and local models alike; details differ per model.
