geeks-accelerator Local Coding Assistant — Code Models Across Your Fleet
Run the best open-source coding models on your own hardware. DeepSeek-Coder, Codestral, StarCoder, and Qwen-Coder routed across your devices — the fleet picks the best machine for every code generation request.
Your code never leaves your network. No GitHub Copilot subscription, no cloud API costs.

Quick start
pip install ollama-herd # PyPI: https://pypi.org/project/ollama-herd/
herd # start the router (port 11435)
herd-node # run on each device — finds the router automatically
No models are downloaded during installation. All pulls require user confirmation.
Code generation
Write new code
from openai import OpenAI
client = OpenAI(base_url="http://localhost:11435/v1", api_key="not-needed")
response = client.chat.completions.create(
model="codestral",
messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Write a thread-safe LRU cache in Python with TTL support"}],
)
print(response.choices[0].message.content)
Code review
curl http://localhost:11435/v1/chat/completions \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"model": "deepseek-coder-v2:16b",
"messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Review this code for bugs and security issues:\n\n```python\ndef process_payment(amount, card_number):\n ...\n```"}]
}'
Refactoring
curl http://localhost:11435/api/chat -d '{
"model": "qwen2.5-coder:32b",
"messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Refactor this to use async/await: ..."}],
"stream": false
}'
Works with your IDE tools
The fleet exposes an OpenAI-compatible API at http://localhost:11435/v1. Point any coding tool at it:
| Tool | Config |
|---|---|
| Aider | aider --openai-api-base http://localhost:11435/v1 --model codestral |
| Continue.dev | Set API base to http://localhost:11435/v1 in VS Code settings |
| Cline | Set provider to OpenAI-compatible, base URL http://localhost:11435/v1 |
| Open WebUI | Set Ollama URL to http://localhost:11435 |
| LangChain | ChatOpenAI(base_url="http://localhost:11435/v1", model="codestral") |
Pick the right model for your RAM
Cross-platform: These are example configurations. Any device (Mac, Linux, Windows) with equivalent RAM works.
| Device | RAM | Best coding model |
|---|---|---|
| MacBook Air (8GB) | 8GB | starcoder2:3b or deepseek-coder:6.7b |
| Mac Mini (16GB) | 16GB | codestral or starcoder2:15b |
| Mac Mini (32GB) | 32GB | qwen2.5-coder:32b or deepseek-coder:33b |
| Mac Studio (128GB) | 128GB | deepseek-coder-v2 — frontier code quality |

Guardrails
- Model downloads require explicit user confirmation — coding models range from 2GB to 130GB+. Always confirm before pulling.
- Model deletion requires explicit user confirmation.
- Never delete or modify files in
~/.fleet-manager/. - No models are downloaded automatically — all pulls are user-initiated or require opt-in.
- Your code stays local — no prompts or generated code leave your network.
