Recipes
Each recipe gets one thing done, in a few minutes. They link to the full pages when you want the details.
Models
Section titled “Models”- Copy a model to another machine: skip a second big download.
- Use models you already downloaded: link models from LM Studio, Ollama or Msty Studio.
- Benchmark two models before you pick: real speed numbers on your machine.
- Switch models without touching your apps: one name, any model behind it.
- Serve more chats at once on one Mac: answer several chats at the same time.
Routing
Section titled “Routing”- Keep sensitive requests on a local model: personal details never leave your machine.
- Send long prompts to a big-context model: one rule, before the router decides.
- Cap monthly spend on online models: switch to a local model past a budget.
- Try a new model on some chats: test on 10% before you switch everyone.
- Keep apps working when your local model is down: a backup that takes over.
Apps and keys
Section titled “Apps and keys”- Call Nexus from the OpenAI SDK: Python and JavaScript, with streaming.
- Use Claude Code with a local model: and Codex CLI.
- Use your Claude or ChatGPT plan in any app: no extra API account.
- Know before you hit a subscription limit: an alert before quota runs out.
- Give an app only some models and tools: a key with exactly what it needs.
- Make API keys from a script: set up many apps the same way.
- Add web search to a preset: current facts for any app.
- See what each app uses and costs: usage per key and per app.

- Find out why a request went where it did: follow one request by its ID.
Tools and decisions
Section titled “Tools and decisions”- Use one tools address in every app: add MCP servers once.
- Ask before a tool does anything risky: approve, limit or block each tool.
- Sort support tickets with a local model: fixed answers your software can read.
Machines
Section titled “Machines”- Share one model across two Macs: keep serving while one Mac restarts.
- Run a model too big for one Mac: split one model across your Macs.
