name	local-llm-setup
plugin	cli-agents
description	Cross-platform setup wizard for the local Gemma 4 12B inference stack. Automates llama-server installation (binary download or Metal/CUDA/Vulkan/ROCm compile), model download, routing proxy daemon install (launchd/systemd/NSSM), and Mode A/B validation. Covers Day 1 bootstrap and Day 2+ reconfiguration.

User wants to set up local Gemma 4 for the first time on a Mac. User: Set up local LLM with Gemma 4 on my M1 Mac Agent: Detects Metal GPU, compiles llama-server from source, downloads gemma-4-12b-UD-Q4_K_XL.gguf, starts server, installs routing proxy via launchd, validates with a Mode B timing test (~2s). User wants to test Mode B task delegation speed vs Mode A proxy. User: Compare Mode B vs Mode A speed for local Gemma Agent: Runs `time python3 scripts/run_agent.py /dev/null /dev/null /tmp/t.md "hello" --cli llama` (~2s), then `time claude --model gemma-4-12b -p "hello"` (~30–60s cold), reports the delta.

Primary Use Case: Mode B Task Delegation

Mode B is the fast path. run_agent.py sends a lean prompt directly to llama-server — no proxy overhead, no 29K system prompt. Measured: ~2s wall clock for a typical bounded task.

# Start llama-server (required for cli=llama)
python3 scripts/run_server.py
curl http://localhost:8089/health   # must return {"status":"ok"}

# Mode B task delegation — fast path (~2s)
time python3 scripts/run_agent.py agents/refactor-expert.md target.py output.md \
  "List the top 3 issues." --cli llama

# Mode B with custom max tokens
python3 scripts/run_agent.py /dev/null /dev/null /tmp/out.md \
  "Summarize this architecture decision." --cli llama --max-tokens 300

Mode A (Optional — Interactive Proxy)

Mode A routes Claude Code itself through Gemma via a proxy. It carries ~29K tokens of system prompt overhead per session, making the first turn 30–60s. Not recommended for task delegation — use Mode B instead.
