wtf is pi-local-models?

pi-local-models is a small add-on for the PI Coding Agent that helps it find and use AI models running locally on your own computer instead of only relying on cloud based models. It works with any local model server that speaks the same API style as OpenAI, which covers several popular local tools such as llama.cpp, Ollama, oMLX, llama-swap, and MTPLX. Once installed through PI's own package installer, you set it up by creating a small configuration file that points to your local model server, giving it the web address it is running at and an API key. This config file can be placed either for your whole user account or just for a single project, so you can have different local model setups for different projects if you want. After the configuration is in place, you run PI and use its built in /models command, which will then discover and list any local models it finds through this tool, letting you pick one to use inside PI. The readme is intentionally brief. It does not describe internal architecture, testing, or license terms, and it points to a separate example config file in the repository for a fuller reference.
