Claude Code with a Local Ollama Model: Setup, and What a 12 GB GPU Can Do

Claude Code speaks the Anthropic API. Ollama now speaks it too. Point one at the other with three environment variables and Claude Code runs against a model on your own GPU. No API key, no per-token bill, and the prompts stay on your network. Whether it’s any good is a different question. I ran it against three models on an RTX 3060 with two small coding tasks each. One model did well at both. One was the best at one and the worst at the other. Treat what follows as a smoke test, not a benchmark, but the differences were big enough to matter. ...

Both are Hugo output formats, about twenty lines in total. This post has the config, both templates, the sizes I measured on the live site and the things that bit me. ...

How to Check a Cheap Claude Code Subagent's Research Before You Believe It

I handed two Claude Code subagents a research job. Both ran on Haiku to keep the cost down, and both came back with tidy tables, exact quotes and source URLs. Then I opened the sources, and a fair amount of what they’d told me was wrong. This post is what I found, and the small script I now use before acting on anything a cheap subagent tells me. What I asked them I had a Claude Code session working through SEO and AdSense compliance on this blog, and I spun two background subagents off it with the model set to Haiku: ...
