How to point Vomit at a different local LLM server with Vomit

Use Ollama, Apfel, or another OpenAI-API server as the model behind Vomit.

Short answer: Install and start a server from the README list, such as Ollama (https://github.com/ollama/ollama) or Apfel (https://github.com/Arthur-Ficial/apfel); then run go install github.com/zachahn/vomit@latest; run vomit init and enter the connection details for the server you started. All steps.

Who it is forA developer who already runs a local model server and does not want to install Llama.app.

The problemThe developer already has a local model server and wants Vomit to use it instead of a new one.

The outcomeVomit sends Claude's output to the chosen local server and returns rewritten text.

What you need first

  • Go toolchain, so `go install` works
  • Claude Code installed
  • A local LLM server such as Llama.app or Ollama, with a model downloaded
  • A Mac, since the README says it was only tested on Mac

Steps

  1. Install and start a server from the README list, such as Ollama (https://github.com/ollama/ollama) or Apfel (https://github.com/Arthur-Ficial/apfel).
  2. Run go install github.com/zachahn/vomit@latest.
  3. Run vomit init and enter the connection details for the server you started.
  4. Run vomit scrub -claude and follow its hook instructions.
  5. Send a Claude Code prompt and confirm the reply is rewritten.

Prompt for your agent

Install zachahn/vomit with `go install github.com/zachahn/vomit@latest`, then run `vomit init` pointed at the local server <server-url> that is already running. Report which server and connection details you entered, and verify by checking that a Claude Code reply is rewritten after `vomit scrub -claude` is applied.

Caveat. The README says Apfel is not very good, and it does not confirm that every OpenAI-API server works, since that line ends in a question.
