You may want to save costs by developing against a local LLM server, such as llamafile. Note that a local LLM will generally be slower and not as sophisticated.
Once you've got your local LLM running and serving an OpenAI-compatible endpoint, define LOCAL_OPENAI_ENDPOINT
in your .env
file.
For example, to point at a local llamafile server running on its default port:
LOCAL_OPENAI_ENDPOINT="http:https://localhost:8080/v1"
If you're running inside a dev container, use this local URL instead:
LOCAL_OPENAI_ENDPOINT="http:https://host.docker.internal:8080/v1"
