 "title": "Add local GGUF text generation to a Go program",
 "page_title": "How to add local GGUF text generation to a Go program with Go Llama",
 "summary": "Call a local GGUF model from Go code and get generated text back, with no cgo.",
 "who": "A Go backend developer who needs text generation in a service and wants to avoid cgo or a separate inference server.",
 "problem": "Calling a hosted model API adds a network dependency, and cgo-based bindings complicate builds and cross-compiling.",
 "outcome": "A Go program that loads a GGUF file, generates text from a prompt, and prints the result.",
 "steps": [
  "Install a Go toolchain and download a GGUF model file to your machine.",
  "Run `go get github.com/goccy/go-llama` in your Go module. (inferred, check the README)",
  "Copy the README example into main.go and set the LoadModel path to your model file.",
  "Run `CGO_ENABLED=0 go run .` to build and run without cgo. (inferred, check the README)"
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "In the Go module at <project-path>, add the goccy/go-llama package and use the README example to load <model-file>.gguf and generate text from the prompt \"Once upon a time\". Expected output: the generated text printed to stdout. Verify that the program exits without error when built with CGO_ENABLED=0.",
 "agents": [
  "any"
 ],
 "difficulty": "Intermediate",
 "time": "1 hour",
 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "The README example uses a model file named model.gguf, and generation speed and memory use depend on the model size and quantization you choose.",
 "category": "Software and DevOps",
 "tags": [
  "Software and DevOps"
 ],
 "lang": "go",
 "requirements": [
  "A Go toolchain installed on your machine",
  "A GGUF model file, such as model.gguf",
  "Enough memory for the model weights and KV cache, since the README notes wasm32 caps linear memory at 4 GiB"
