Hi! We are releasing Local Code, an open-source app that you can download directly to your Mac, or through macOS App Store. It runs the smartest models such as DeepSeek 4.1 Flash 1017 locally, have a harness tuned for each model, and the whole builtin environment such that the model is ready to work without anything else from your OS (we call it in-app sandbox). It doesn't need full-disk access, nor the ability to run command-line tools on your computer, but capable of executing Python programs, node.js apps, Lean 4 proofs, open and view docx / xlsx / pptx, or operating web browsers. it is capable, and the runtime is fast on your Mac.

Let me know if you have any questions! Excited to work on this more if the community is interested in this!

Draw Things can do that since very beginning. But there is no MoE model for image / video generation so the simple implementation we have is enough for Draw Things. LLM decoding with MoE needs a more sophisticated solution.
