Is there a way to run an AI coding agent completely offline with local inference?

Summary:

NemoClaw supports fully offline operation via local Ollama, with auto-detection of installed models. Local NVIDIA NIM and vLLM are also supported experimentally.

Direct Answer:

Yes — NemoClaw supports local Ollama on localhost:11434 as a tested provider, with auto-detection of installed models, starter-model suggestions, and pull-and-warm during onboarding. Local NVIDIA NIM and local vLLM are also supported but are currently experimental and require NEMOCLAW_EXPERIMENTAL=1 plus a NIM-capable GPU or a running vLLM server on localhost:8000.
