Overview
What Chat-Forge is and the problem it solves.
Chat-Forge is a Windows desktop application built with .NET 8 and WPF. It serves as a local-first AI assistant that can run local LLMs via llama.cpp, connect to 4 cloud providers, use MCP for tool extensibility, and coordinate across multiple machines via swarm.
Design Philosophy
Local-first — the app defaults to local inference for privacy and zero API cost. Cloud providers are fallbacks, not the primary path. All data stays on the machine unless explicitly synced.
