v0.1.0AGPL-3.0-or-later

Work on qi — a local-first text river running Granite 4.1, with research that verifies its own citations and a standalone Mac app. Covers setup, editing the codebase, the model cards, adapter conversion, the research process, and shipping.

qi-setup

Install, run and verify qi — either from npm via @qi-ui/cli or from source with bun, vite and llama-server. Use when setting up qi for the first time, choosing a model size, starting or stopping the model server, checking that generation, tool calling, grammars and the adapter shelf actually work, or diagnosing an install that produces no answers, no sound, no images, a blank page or a connection error.

License
