- For
- Apple Silicon Mac users running local coding agents
- Worth noticing
- The page explicitly says its tiered setups are estimates and have not yet been hardware-tested.
Field notes
The recommendations pair each memory tier with a model, server, and context-size suggestion; some entries include commands for installing or pointing an agent at a local server. The page says it estimates model needs from published sizes and a rough 4-bit memory rule, then reserves headroom for macOS and context. Its linked material also compares local runtimes and covers fine-tuning with mlx_lm.lora.
