🚀 How to Use​

Start the App​

cd /workspace/PROJECTS/t2
npm run dev

Open: http://localhost:5173

Workflow Example​

  1. Select Mode: Choose "Sequential"
  2. Primary Model: qwen/qwen3-coder-30b (LM Studio)
  3. Secondary Model: Claude Code
  4. Enter Prompt: "Write a Rust function to parse JSON"
  5. Result:
    • LM Studio generates initial code
    • Response piped to Claude Code
    • Claude Code reviews/refines with tools
    • Final enhanced result displayed

Available Models​

Your LM Studio has 16 models:

  • qwen/qwq-32b (reasoning)
  • qwen/qwen3-coder-30b (coding)
  • nousresearch/hermes-4-70b (general)
  • Plus 13 more specialized models

✨ Key Features Implemented​

Workflow Modes​

  1. Single Mode ✅

    • Use one llm at a time
    • Streaming responses from LM Studio
    • Direct Claude Code integration

  2. Parallel Mode ✅

    • Get responses from both llms
    • Display side-by-side
    • Compare approaches

  3. Sequential Mode ✅

    • Chain: LM Studio → Claude Code
    • First model's output becomes context
    • Refinement and enhancement

  4. Consensus Mode ✅

    • Both llms respond independently
    • Primary model synthesizes final answer
    • Combined wisdom

UI/UX Features​

  • ✅ Resizable panels (drag to adjust)
  • ✅ Dark VS Code-like theme
  • ✅ Monaco editor with syntax highlighting
  • ✅ xterm.js terminal
  • ✅ Real-time message display
  • ✅ Model badges on responses
  • ✅ Loading states and error handling
  • ✅ Keyboard shortcuts (Enter to send)
  • ✅ Clear chat functionality

🔮 Future Enhancements​

  • OPFS File System: Implement browser-based file storage
  • Full MCP Integration: Connect Claude Code via MCP protocol
  • File Explorer: Functional file tree with CRUD operations
  • terminal Commands: Execute real commands in terminal
  • Export/Import: Save conversations and projects
  • Settings Panel: Adjust temperature, max tokens, etc.
  • WASM Optimization: Rust/WASM for performance-critical operations
  • Syntax Themes: Multiple editor themes
  • Plugin System: Extensible architecture

🎯 Current Status​

Application: ✅ Running on http://localhost:5173 LM Studio Connection: ✅ Connected (16 models) MCP Server: ✅ Created and configured Core UI: ✅ Complete and functional llm Workflows: ✅ All 4 modes implemented

🐛 Known Limitations​

  1. File System: Currently placeholder (OPFS integration pending)
  2. Claude Code: Direct API used (MCP integration coming)
  3. terminal: Basic shell emulation (no real command execution yet)
  4. Streaming: Only works for LM Studio (Claude Code uses standard responses)

  • Quick Start: See quick-start.md
  • MCP Server: See mcp-lmstudio/README.md
  • Project Status: See status.md

💡 Tips​

  1. Try Sequential mode for code review workflows
  2. Use Parallel mode to compare model approaches
  3. Use Consensus mode for final, synthesized answers
  4. Experiment with different model combinations
