OmniRoute's memory feature is self-contained: its bundled sqlite-vec vector store plus a local ONNX embedding model (Transformers.js, ~400MB, fetched into the omniroute-data volume on first use) replace the external qdrant + bge-small-en-v1.5 embedding-server pair, which was never wired up in the dashboard. Two fewer containers, no second GGUF download, no EMBEDDING_MODEL_FILE var. Memory stays opt-in via the dashboard (Settings -> Memory, transformers source); nothing here changes the gateway's static config.

LLM-Server
Local AI inference stack: llama.cpp (ROCm) serving Qwen3.8-27B on an AMD Radeon AI PRO R9700, fronted by the OmniRoute AI gateway, with Lazytainer auto-suspending the inference container when idle.
See the wayfinder map (issue #1) for the full architecture rationale and open questions.
Quickstart
./scripts/update.sh
update.sh creates .env from .env.example if missing, fills in every random secret it can generate itself (via openssl, SEARXNG_LAN_IP resolved from search.home on this host), downloads the model GGUF into the models volume if it's not there yet, then pulls/builds/brings up the whole stack. Safe to re-run any time — it only fills in what's still blank, skips the model if already downloaded, and only recreates what changed.
llama.cpp's own API is internal-only — everything routes through the AI gateway below.
Pointing Claude Code CLI, Kimi CLI, or OpenCode CLI at the local endpoint: see docs/coding-cli-setup.md.
Known risk: Qwen3.8-27B's tool-calling reliability against llama.cpp's Anthropic shim is not yet verified (open upstream parser bugs against its model lineage) — see docs/research/qwen3.8-27b-tool-calling.md.
AI gateway (OmniRoute)
An AI gateway/proxy fronts llama.cpp: per-workload API keys and usage tracking. As of issue #31 this is OmniRoute, replacing the original LiteLLM setup. ./scripts/update.sh handles most of OmniRoute's secrets (see .env.example); per-workload API keys still need minting by hand in the dashboard — see docs/proxy-key-onboarding.md.
- Gateway API:
http://<this-machine>:${OMNIROUTE_PORT:-4000}/v1locally, orproxy-ai.home/proxy-ai.haylan.chonce routed through NPM — seedocs/network-access.md. - Dashboard (key/provider management): LAN/host-only, never published to the internet — see
docs/network-access.md. - Issuing a key for a new workload:
docs/proxy-key-onboarding.md.
Coding CLIs (see docs/coding-cli-setup.md) route through the gateway — llama-server has no published host port. Not yet verified: none of this has been smoke-tested on real hardware yet — see issue #31's tickets for the open items (provider registration, per-workload key minting).
Note on this choice: OmniRoute's own docs (docs/security/STEALTH_GUIDE.md, MITM-TPROXY-DECRYPT.md, PUBLIC_CREDS.md in its repo) describe shipped features for evading AI-provider client detection, system-wide HTTPS interception via a locally-installed root CA, and hiding credentials from secret scanners. None of that is used by this stack's configuration, but it's a real characteristic of the upstream project — see issue #31's Notes for the full research trail before extending this integration further.
Web search
The gateway also fronts SearXNG-backed web search — see docs/research/litellm-searxng-search.md for the original research (still applicable — same standalone-endpoint pattern, see issue #31's #35).
What's not here
- Open WebUI — this stack has no chat UI; every client is a coding CLI. Removed rather than kept idle.
- Gateway-level knowledgebase/memory (
litellm-pgvector,pgvector-db, a dedicated embedding model) — removed as unwanted, unrelated to OmniRoute's own lack of parity with it (see issue #31's #34). Superseded by OmniRoute's own built-in memory feature (opt-in via the dashboard, Settings → Memory): vector store is its bundledsqlite-vec, embeddings are a local ONNX model (Transformers.js, ~400MB, downloaded into theomniroute-datavolume on first use) — no external services, no static config here.
