by joblessjoe Your server? Claim it
local only

Local LLM Worker runs on your own machine — the client starts it, so there is no endpoint to ping. 225 installs a week from npm. Last commit 8 Oct 2026.

Local LLM does Claude's bulk work: reads logs and files, researches the web, writes test-gated code.

What the code does

We read the source, 2 d ago · rules ccca72095570

A tool parameter reaches a dangerous call

A value the model can set ends up inside a file or shell call. That is not a flaw by itself — for a terminal server it is the job — but it is where things go wrong when it is not.

A tool parameter reaches a file or shell call delegate.target_file → src/worker.js:1561, delegate.test_command → src/worker.js:1584, delegate.target_file → src/worker.js:1530
      await fs.writeFile(wtTarget, code);
Capabilities

What this server is able to do. For an MCP server this is often the job itself — a terminal server runs commands because that is what it is for. Listed so you know what you are plugging in, not as an accusation.

      child = spawn(cmd, args, { cwd, env, stdio: ['ignore', 'pipe', 'pipe'] });

Is this your server and something here is wrong? Tell us — corrections are free and do not require a plan.

That is not a flaw by itself — but it is where things go wrong when it is not the job. We re-read this code on every release. Watch it and you hear from us the day another one appears.

Connect this server

This server runs on your own machine — install it with the package manager and the client starts it for you. Package name taken from the official registry entry.

run in your terminal

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: LLW_BASE_URL (Model server URL (Ollama, llama.cpp, LM Studio, vLLM). Default http://localhost:11434), LLW_MODEL (Model to use; optional if the server has only one), LLW_SEARCH_URL (SearXNG URL for web research (optional)). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Local LLM Worker — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Local LLM Worker?
Local LLM Worker runs on your own machine over stdio — there is no network address to reach, so uptime cannot be measured for it by anyone. What can be measured is adoption: the npm package local-llm-worker was installed 225 times last week.
How do I connect Local LLM Worker?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It runs locally, so the command pulls local-llm-worker straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Local LLM Worker?
The npm package local-llm-worker was installed 225 times in the last week. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Local LLM Worker open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in JavaScript and 2 stars on GitHub. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
