It supports any hardware from laptops to clusters with hand-tuned kernels for GPUs and CPUs. The site highlights integration with a local coding agent via the Pi tool and pi-llama plugin, and showcases supported models including Qwen 3.6, Gemma 4, GPT-OSS, and Gemma 3. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it. Read it at the original source: ## Questions this post answers ### How do I set up llama.cpp with a local coding agent using Pi? Run `llama serve` to start a local model server, then install the pi-llama plugin with `pi install git:github.com/huggingface/pi-llama`, and finally run `pi`. Pi automatically discovers the local model with no config or API keys required. All files stay on your machine and requests never leave it. _Developers building local AI coding workflows track llama.cpp updates and integrations on daily.dev._ ## Similar posts on daily.dev - [llama-farm/llamafarm: Deploy any AI model, agents, database, RAG, and pipeline locally in minutes](https://daily.dev/posts/llama-farm-llamafarm-deploy-any-ai-model-agents-database-rag-and-pipeline-locally-in-minutes-dplv4kag5) · Hacker News · 0 upvotes · 0 comments --- Tags: [#open-source](https://daily.dev/tags/open-source), [#local-ai](https://daily.dev/tags/local-ai), [#ai-inference](https://daily.dev/tags/ai-inference), [#llama-cpp](https://daily.dev/tags/llama-cpp) [View this post on daily.dev](https://daily.dev/posts/official-home-for-llama-cpp-bgx69sgjl) ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/dailydotdev","https://github.com/dailydotdev","https://www.linkedin.com/company/daily-dev-ltd"]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://daily.dev/#website","url":"https://daily.dev","name":"daily.dev","publisher":{"@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization"},"potentialAction":{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https://daily.dev/search?q={search_term_string}"},"query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"TechArticle","headline":"Official home for llama.cpp","url":"https://daily.dev/posts/official-home-for-llama-cpp-bgx69sgjl","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/official-home-for-llama-cpp-bgx69sgjl"},"datePublished":"2026-08-12T06:18:06.219Z","dateModified":"2026-08-12T06:18:28.464Z","description":"llama.app is the official home for llama.cpp, a tool for running frontier AI models entirely on your local machine with no API keys, telemetry, or data leaving...","image":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto/v1/posts/a5397a881df3bb4918a0f71f88c0bf3e?_a=AQAEuop","thumbnailUrl":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto/v1/posts/a5397a881df3bb4918a0f71f88c0bf3e?_a=AQAEuop","isAccessibleForFree":true,"articleSection":"Hacker News","inLanguage":"en","publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180}},"author":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Hacker News","logo":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/t_logo,f_auto/v1/logos/hn","url":"https://daily.dev/sources/hn"},"commentCount":0,"discussionUrl":"https://daily.dev/posts/official-home-for-llama-cpp-bgx69sgjl","interactionStatistic":[{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"LikeAction"},"userInteractionCount":2},{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"CommentAction"},"userInteractionCount":0}],"keywords":"open-source,local-ai,ai-inference,llama-cpp","timeRequired":"PT2M"} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https://daily.dev"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"Hacker News","item":"https://daily.dev/sources/hn"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"name":"Official home for llama.cpp"}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"FAQPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/official-home-for-llama-cpp-bgx69sgjl#faq","mainEntity":[{"@type":"Question","name":"How do I set up llama.cpp with a local coding agent using Pi?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Run `llama serve` to start a local model server, then install the pi-llama plugin with `pi install git:github.com/huggingface/pi-llama`, and finally run `pi`.
