OpenAI-Compatible Client for LM Studio

Turn LM Studio into a cloud-ready powerhouse. Access local and cloud inference simultaneously in the same app! This fork lets you chat with Cerebras, Groq, OpenRouter, Claude, GPT-4o, Gemini-2.5, DeepSeek, Kimi-K2, GLM V4.5—or any OpenAI-shaped endpoint—without ever leaving the comfy LM Studio UI.

What’s new

• Native OpenAI sampling knobs (temperature, top-p, frequency penalty, etc.) exposed in the GUI
• Zero config: paste your API key, pick the model, start vibing
• Keeps all local-model superpowers intact—switch between cloud and local on the fly
• Added custom system prompt support
