 "title": "Code with Claude Code on a local model",
 "page_title": "How to code with Claude Code on a local model with Slotstream",
 "summary": "Start Claude Code connected to the Slotstream local model with one command.",
 "who": "A developer who uses Claude Code and wants coding help that runs on their own Mac instead of a hosted model.",
 "problem": "Coding agents normally send source code to a hosted model, which may be unacceptable for private projects.",
 "outcome": "Claude Code running against the local Qwen3.8-Flash-Next model, with the Slotstream server started in the background.",
 "steps": [
  "Install Claude Code separately, since Slotstream provides the model and not the agent interface.",
  "Run the Slotstream install command from the install section of the README.",
  "Run `slotstream doctor` to confirm your Mac meets the memory and disk requirements.",
  "Run `slotstream launch claude` to start Claude Code on the local model.",
  "Ask Claude Code to read a file in your project and summarize it to confirm the connection works."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "Using the carloslfu/slotstream repo, run `slotstream launch claude` in the project folder <project path>. Expected output: Claude Code starts connected to the local Slotstream model. Verify by asking it to summarize one file in <project path> and confirming a reply comes back without a network call to a hosted model.",
 "agents": [
  "claude-code"
 ],
 "difficulty": "Intermediate",
 "time": "3 hours",
 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "The README says the local model is slower than hosted models on larger Macs with more memory, and reply speed depends on your Mac and workload.",

 "lang": "swift",
 "requirements": [
  "An Apple Silicon Mac with at least 16 GB of memory",
  "macOS 14 or later",
  "About 110 GB of free SSD space",
  "An internet connection for the one-time model download",
  "Terminal access to run the install command"
