 "title": "Run board agents on a local model with no cloud account",
 "page_title": "How to run board agents on a local model with no cloud account with Tasktrooper",
 "summary": "Point agents at Ollama or LM Studio so code stays on your machine.",
 "who": "A developer who cannot send source code to a hosted model and needs agents that run against a local model server.",
 "problem": "Most agent setups call a hosted API, which may not be allowed for private or regulated code.",
 "outcome": "Agents answer from a local OpenAI-compatible endpoint, and tasks progress on the board without a cloud model.",
 "steps": [
  "Start your local model server, such as Ollama or LM Studio, and note its OpenAI-compatible endpoint address.",
  "Install TaskTrooper and choose any OpenAI-compatible endpoint as the API provider during first run.",
  "Assign that provider to one or more agents in the agent settings.",
  "Put a small task on the board and confirm it completes against the local endpoint."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "In the makifbaysal/tasktrooper repo, set an OpenAI-compatible provider pointing at <local endpoint URL> for the product-manager agent. Create a small Backlog task and report whether the agent's run completed and which model answered.",
 "agents": [
  "any"
 ],
 "difficulty": "Advanced",
 "time": "1 hour 30 minutes",
 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "Local models must be served separately, and the README does not say which local model works best with the role agents.",

 "lang": "go",
 "requirements": [
  "git installed on the machine",
  "At least one agent CLI (Claude Code, Cursor, Antigravity or OpenCode) or an API key for a model provider",
  "A GitHub account connected during first run",
  "macOS, Windows or Linux desktop"
