The fastest local AI engine for Apple Silicon. 4.2x faster than Ollama, 0.08s cached TTFT, 100% tool calling. 17 tool parsers, prompt cache, reasoning separation, cloud routing. Drop-in OpenAI replacement. Works with Claude Code, Cursor, Aider.
Agent
Point Anthropic's Claude Code at a local rapid-mlx server. Claude Code speaks the Anthropic Messages API (POST /v1/messages); rapid-mlx implements that route natively, so you can drive Claude Code with any local model.
Agent
Point OpenAI's Codex CLI at a local rapid-mlx server. Codex is a Rust-based coding agent that talks to the OpenAI Responses API (POST /v1/responses); rapid-mlx implements that endpoint as a stateless shim, so any local model can drive Codex.
Agent
Run the official DeepSeek Harness against a local Rapid-MLX server. Rapid uses Harness's generic openai-completions provider; it does not impersonate the DeepSeek cloud API.
Agent
Point Nous Research's Hermes Agent at a local rapid-mlx server. Hermes is a tool-heavy CLI agent (it injects up to 62 tools per request) that speaks the OpenAI-compatible chat completions API (POST /v1/chat/completions).
Agent
This page renders the Tier-1 agent × model-family integration matrix truthfully from the authoritative test suite in tests/integrations/ — the matrix cells (testagentsmatrix.py), the family aliases and strict-xfail rules (conftest.py), and the pilot run recorded in tests/integrations/README.md.
Agent
Point OpenCode at a local rapid-mlx server. OpenCode is a Claude-Code-like terminal coding agent that speaks the OpenAI-compatible chat completions API (POST /v1/chat/completions) via the @ai-sdk/openai-compatible provider.
Agent
Point OpenHands (formerly OpenDevin) at a local rapid-mlx server. OpenHands drives its CodeActAgent inside a Docker sandbox and reaches the model over the OpenAI-compatible chat completions API (POST /v1/chat/completions) via LiteLLM.
Agent
Point Qwen Code at a local rapid-mlx server. Qwen Code is Alibaba's gemini-cli fork tuned for Qwen tool-calling; it speaks the OpenAI-compatible chat completions API (POST /v1/chat/completions) via an OpenAI entry in modelProviders that maps 1:1 onto rapid-mlx's default endpoint.
