Odysseus model providers guide for Ollama, llama.cpp, vLLM, OpenAI, OpenRouter, LM Studio, OpenAI-compatible endpoints and privacy boundaries.

Odysseus model providers

Ollama is usually the easiest local provider for beginners and Windows users.
OpenAI-compatible APIs are useful when hardware cannot run the target model.
OpenRouter or hosted endpoints can be practical but change the privacy boundary.

Odysseus model providers

llama.cpp and vLLM can fit advanced local serving but require platform-specific dependencies.
Docker access to host services often needs host.docker.internal and the /v1 endpoint path.
LM Studio-style local servers may help users who already manage models outside Odysseus.

Odysseus model providers

Local-first is strongest when prompts, files and models stay on controlled hardware.
External APIs can still be useful, but users must treat provider keys and prompts as external data flow.
Use separate API keys per provider and rotate any key that appears in a log or screenshot.
