Who This Is For

Local Experimenters

You want to test prompts, workflows, and shell actions quickly on your own laptop without waiting on cloud quotas.

Privacy-Conscious Builders

You prefer to keep code, credentials, and test outputs on your own machine and avoid unnecessary external API exposure.

Cost-Aware Teams

You need a repeatable local lab for demos, prototyping, and CI-like validation without recurring per-token costs.

How The Stack Works

WSL2 Tooling OpenShell Gateway Sandbox Proxy Relay Ollama on Windows

Section 6 tests use gateway-routed provider configuration so your runtime path matches real OpenShell routing instead of direct fallback calls.

Validation Snapshots

Real outputs captured from test runs in this repo.

Default suite validation output with passing section 6 tests
Default suite output with passing gateway-routed agent checks.
Custom prompt validation output showing successful agent response
