Hey everyone! Yagil the founder of LM Studio here. If you want to take Bionic for a spin with GLM 5.2 / Kimi K2.6 / Kimi Coder K2.7, email your lmstudio.ai username to hn-jul16@lmstudio.ai and I'll load your account with some credits!

Try it out for coding (in a "Code" project) and document creation / manipulation (in a "Work" project). In Work projects we have automatic checkpointing for every change the agent makes. Would love to hear your feedback.

Yagil, thanks for the credits! Lots of fun to try running this locally. I don't understand the negativity in some of the other comments.

This is one of the better agent harnesses I've seen for inspecting reasoning chains, which is super useful for me. Sometimes reading the reasoning is better for my needs than reading the response. I appreciate how transparent that is in contrast with Claude Code/Codex/etc.

One question — I saw you mentioned negotiating ZDR with your "providers" — are you hosting the models yourselves, or is another entity hosting them? If another entity, which group?

Can I use my z.ai coding plan API key?

Thanks! I have sent a mail :-D

It's dogshit. It makes the same low quality kindergarten boilerplates the others do - and that's being generous.

Nowhere near ready for production
