Local Code Community
Local Code Community: Local Code is a private AI agent app for Mac, iPad, and iPhone that runs on-device models and tools.
Local Code is a private AI agent app for Mac, iPad, and iPhone written mostly in Swift. It combines an LLM inference engine for Apple Silicon, a coding harness, and an agent runtime with built-in Python, Node.js, shell, and other tools. The agent can work through tasks on chosen files like analyzing data, charting, writing documents, and building software. It supports offline inference with models like DeepSeek and Qwen, or cloud models from Anthropic, OpenAI, and OpenRouter. All tools run inside an app sandbox restricted to allowed folders.
