Earlier quoted context omitted.
Use Unsloth Studio, it's actually open source and I trust Unsloth via their quantized models a lot more than LM Studio.
Any VC-backed company will eventually pivot.

Re: LM Studio Bionic: the AI agent for open models
#53This kind of thing just makes me think Apple will get to a point where they have good enough local models and good enough harnesses for doing things, and most normal people will just use them… Does the LLM become another interface to computing?
Why wait? People are already doing their work on OpenAI and Anthropic's servers, Apple Intelligence servers could quickly subsume any "local" model work that you want to do.
That way everyone has access, even with older devices, and it's a subscription! Then Apple can tie their APIs into the ecosystem you love at a flat cost you can afford. No need to support local model integration in the first place, problem solved.

#55Hey everyone! Yagil the founder of LM Studio here. If you want to take Bionic for a spin with GLM 5.2 / Kimi K2.6 / Kimi Coder K2.7, email your lmstudio.ai username to hn-jul16@lmstudio.ai and I'll load your account with some credits!
Try it out for coding (in a "Code" project) and document creation / manipulation (in a "Work" project). In Work projects we have automatic checkpointing for every change the agent makes. Would love to hear your feedback.

#56Maybe I missed it, but can we use this with other cloud api’s? Like using Deepseek directly from their platform via their OpenAI endpoints?

#57Why would I use this over any other harness? I suppose they're wrapping it all up in a nice package for enterprise, especially ones that want to control their LLM usage for cost and data security compared to the cloud frontier models.
There’s actually not a lot of good harnesses that aren’t slopped together python or JS codebases, which are actually model-agnostic and don’t do some really silly things like bloating the context, too much compaction etc.
There is no way I’m running a python or JS agent which is probably vibe coded, it’s just too much risk from a security and supply chain standpoint.

Thanks! I have sent a mail :-D

Can I use my z.ai coding plan API key?

The harness is a security threat because it's vibecoded but the code you're having agents write for you isn't? Lol
