Official app downloads and supported devices

A local-first coding workspace with Ollama-backed model support. The project license file is MIT even though GitHub’s API did not classify it; model weights and device compute are separate, and the early-stage app may not match hosted assistant features.

Free MIT app; local model and hardware required

The MIT source and app are free; the repository’s root LICENSE was checked directly because the GitHub API returned NOASSERTION. Local Ollama use needs separately downloaded model weights with their own license and adequate device resources. No app subscription is required for that route.
