Consumer-hardware inference with hardware profiling, tok/s estimates before download, speculative decoding, and one-click wiring to Pi / OpenCode / Claude Code / Cline / Codex and friends. Desktop + CLI; free offline path once models are local. Download from magnitude.dev.","theCatch":"Do NOT install bare npm/crates `magnitude` — name collision with unrelated packages; get the product from magnitude.dev (and the magnitudedev org), not a random registry hit. ★5,479 in about 21 weeks (~261 a week): judge it on the profiler + agent wiring, not the star count. Vs Ollama / llmfit / vLLM: Ollama is the simple local runner; llmfit sizes models to hardware; vLLM is throughput serving — Magnitude’s catch is consumer profiler + agent harness wiring in one desktop/CLI.","verdict":"Apache local inference when agents need hardware-aware models on the desk — download magnitude.dev; ignore registry name twins and the ★ spike.","addedAt":"2026-09-30","featured":false,"domain":"AI Agents","subSpecialty":"Local Inference","subcategory":"Inference & Local Models","tags":["cli","desktop-app","self-host","local-first","permissive","local-llm","active","young-repo"],"capabilities":["inference","local","agents"],"surfaces":["CLI","Self-host"],"ecosystem":["Multi-platform"],"licenseModel":"Apache-2.0","githubStars":7169,"starsPerWeek":387,"access":"free","archived":false,"repo":{"createdAt":"2026-06-12","pushedAt":"2026-10-19","license":"Apache-2.0","archived":false,"checkedAt":"2026-10-19"}},"related":[{"slug":"claude-code","name":"Claude Code","tagline":"Terminal-first coding agent with deep repository context"},{"slug":"cursor","name":"Cursor","tagline":"The AI-first code editor that understands your codebase"},{"slug":"devin","name":"Devin","tagline":"Autonomous AI engineer for defined engineering tasks"},{"slug":"stagehand","name":"Stagehand","tagline":"AI-native browser automation that mixes code and natural language"},{"slug":"browser-use","name":"Browser Use","tagline":"Open-source framework for LLM-driven browser agents"}],"links":{"self":"/api/gems/magnitude","html":"/gems/magnitude","markdown":"/gems/magnitude.md","category":"/api/gems?category=agents","categoryPage":"/stacks/agents"}}
