3 use cases
-
Run a private coding-agent model on your own GPU
Serve GLM-5.3-Flash locally so coding tools call it through an OpenAI- or Anthropic-compatible API.
- Project Maya
- Software and DevOps
- Advanced
View prompt
Use the GitHub repo mw00/project-maya. Set up a local GLM-5.3-Flash server on <target machine> using ./setup.sh --setup and ./maya.sh --bench, then send one OpenAI-compatible chat request with a tool definition to the local server. Expected output: the benchmark results and a valid chat response containing a tool call. Verify that the request was answered by the local server and not a remote API.
-
Ask questions about confidential files without cloud upload
Chat with a large model in the browser while your documents stay on your own machine.
- Project Maya
- Software and DevOps
- Intermediate
View prompt
Use the GitHub repo mw00/project-maya. Run ./setup.sh --setup on <target machine>, choose Maya-S24, then open the local browser chat and ask a summary question about <document path>. Expected output: a summary generated locally. Verify that the network traffic during the answer stays on the local machine.
-
Run DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash locally with picture input
Set up DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash-1017 on your GPUs and include vision support for images.
- Project Maya
- Software and DevOps
- Advanced
View prompt
Use the GitHub repo mw00/project-maya. On <target machine>, run ./setup.sh --model DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash-1017 and then ./maya.sh --bench. Expected output: benchmark numbers for the DeepSeek model and a successful image-plus-text answer. Verify that the vision component loaded (the setup should report it) before counting the test as passed.
How to use Project Maya
- Check you have what it needs: A PC with one or more NVIDIA or AMD GPUs, running Linux or Windows (AMD and Windows are marked experimental in the README); Enough combined RAM, VRAM and NVMe SSD space for the model you pick (Maya-S is 96.5 GB; DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash-1017 GGUF files are 340 GB or more); Time and bandwidth to download the model files from Hugging Face.
- Open mw00/project-maya on GitHub and read the README and license.
- Clone the repo and run
./setup.sh --setup, then pick the model the setup recommends for your PC (Maya-S is the default). - Run
./maya.sh --benchto confirm the model runs and see your decode and prefill speeds. - Start the local server through the setup or maya.sh and note the address it reports. (inferred, check the README)
- Point your OpenAI- or Anthropic-compatible client at that address and send one test request with a tool call. (inferred, check the README)
These steps come from our top use case, Run a private coding-agent model on your own GPU, which also has a copy-paste agent prompt.
