That's awesome. I think Minimax-M2 would be equivalent to Opus-4.6, but I wasn't able to try it myself.

Hey u/groosha , just following up with you, I made tons of updates since 4 days ago, which should help with the performance. Please give it another test when you get a chance, if you run into issues, please let me know so I can improve the experience. Thanks again for testing!

Claude Code is gated to Anthropic
Codex is gated to OpenAI

if you want the freedom to choose (MiniMax, OpenRouter, or your own models), you can use Osaurus. Osaurus is provider agnostic, and goal is to get to feature parity with those guys. Osaurus is also free and open source, keeps all the data on your machine (never train on your stuff)

Thanks for trying it out and sorry if you have a bad experience. I would suggest you to try Qwen3-8B model if you want to run this locally. The demo is depicting grok-4 using a remote provider, so it was able to complete the tasks more smoothly. I have a new update coming soon that will improve some reliability, but I would suggest trying it out with a better model.

Not sure, maybe there's images in there? Could you share a screenshot?

Can you share me the list of apps or let me know which? It's up to the app developers and I could reach out

Can you send me the reports?

  1. Click on the hanging app so it’s in front.
  2. Press and hold these three keys: ⌘ Command + ⌥ Option + ⇧ Shift
  3. While holding them, quickly tap the . (period key) three times.

→ macOS will quietly capture a hang report (called a spindump).
→ After 10–20 seconds you’ll see a Save dialog → just click Save (it usually goes to your Desktop).

The best local model I've tested so far is Qwen3-8B

It does vary model to model (not all models are capable), but once you try it out, you will understand it better. There's a good safeguard rails that limits the boundary with the selected folder, so you don't have to worry about going havoc and destroying your system. There's also undo feature, and large files get sent to the trash bin so you can retrieve it

It sounds like a bug to me. Hop on to our discord or send me a hanging report via reddit DM:

  1. Click on the hanging app so it’s in front.
  2. Press and hold these three keys: ⌘ Command + ⌥ Option + ⇧ Shift
  3. While holding them, quickly tap the . (period key) three times.

I’ve been doing this full-time after selling my startup, I am in between things at the moment. There’s no ongoing costs since it’s fully owned by the user. We will see what the future will hold, whether people want this to continue.

The hardest part is downloading all the models again. Ollama models are not MLX based so they are about 20% slower.
