  Ollama handling the heavy lifting while Claude Code does the talking. Beautiful combo.

  Hey man just wanted to say that I have seen some other YouTubers explain the same thing but they didn’t explain half of what u did like mentioning where u can be charged and how much and explaining other different nuances etc. u saved my time rather than me discovering hidden billings myself when i am half way through. Good job man

  A lot of the harness is built around frontier model capabilties, you have to write a lot of it yourself. A local model can&apos;t use tools and emit JSON reliably, but they are emitting unix commands pretty much flawlessly. Write an IDE that sandboxes him in a unix shell environment instead of forcing him to obey to protocols, run his unix commands, he&apos;ll accomplish most of what frontier models can do. The harness exists so the least qualified people don&apos;t destroy themselves using AI and it&apos;s such an expensive harness that it eats a significant portion of their frontier model capabilties.

  An easier appraoch to open Claude Code without API key is to just pass an environment variable with a random key that will open up claude and then we can link it with any of our local model. I tried this with LM Studio &amp; Claude code and it worked

  HI, I wish the graphics were clearer in this video. The charts show names either in a small font or in grey over black background which is not really legible. Aside from this I really enjoyed this video and the knowledge it imparted as I am learning how to use Claude as we speak.

  You should use open code and tune it to your models. Claude code is a harness that&apos;s pretty coupled to the Claude models

  @nate, very good. I tried to use some prompt transformations to make the models work with Claude code tools, but it requires adding an extra layer between the llm and the Claude code.
