 "title": "Run a coding task on a local project with your own model",
 "page_title": "How to run a coding task on a local project with your own model with Open Vetta",
 "summary": "Point Vetta at a local project and get code changes with visible tool calls and approvals.",
 "who": "A developer with a local repository who needs a bounded coding or file task done and wants to review every step the agent takes.",
 "problem": "Chat tools that only return text leave the developer to copy changes by hand and cannot inspect the workspace or run commands in it.",
 "outcome": "The agent inspects the project, makes changes or runs commands with permission prompts, and leaves the plan, tool calls, and results visible for review.",
 "steps": [
  "Download the desktop app for your operating system from the Download link in the README, then follow the installation and first setup guide.",
  "Add a model provider using BYOK: a supported provider, an OpenAI-compatible endpoint, or a local inference server.",
  "Open your project folder as a workspace in a new session.",
  "Follow the first-task walkthrough, or describe a small coding task such as fixing a failing test, and review each permission request before approving it.",
  "Check the tool calls, plan, and results in the session history before accepting the changes."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "Use the Open Vetta repo (openvetta/open-vetta) on the workspace at <project-path>. Ask Vetta to fix one small failing test or add one small function, approve only the commands you need, and report the list of files changed and the execution trail. Verify that the changed files match the task and that no unrequested files were modified.",
 "agents": [
  "any"
 ],
 "difficulty": "Intermediate",
 "time": "30 minutes",
 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "Local-first does not mean no network traffic, because model providers, MCP servers, and plugins each create their own data boundary.",

 "tags": [
  "Software and DevOps"
 ],
 "lang": "typescript",
 "requirements": [
  "Download the desktop app for macOS, Windows, or Linux, or run from source with Bun 1.3+ and Node.js 20+",
  "An API key for a supported provider, an OpenAI-compatible endpoint, or a local inference server (BYOK)",
  "A local project folder or documents to work on"
