LocalGPT is a local-only AI assistant built in Rust that ships as a single binary with a CLI, desktop GUI, embedded web UI, HTTP API, and MCP server, featuring persistent markdown memory with hybrid FTS5/vector search and kernel-level shell sandboxing. It also includes localgpt-gen, a Bevy-powered mode that builds explorable 3D worlds (geometry, materials, lighting, audio, behaviors) from natural-language prompts.

Use cases

• run a private AI assistant entirely on my machine with no cloud
• give an AI agent persistent memory across chat sessions
• generate 3D game scenes from natural language descriptions
• integrate a local AI assistant into Claude Desktop or VS Code via MCP
• chat with an AI assistant from Telegram or Discord
• schedule autonomous background agent tasks
• search my conversation history semantically and by keyword
• sandbox AI-executed shell commands at the kernel level

When to choose

• you want a privacy-first, local AI assistant with no telemetry or cloud storage
• you need an agent with persistent, searchable memory across sessions
• you want to prototype explorable 3D worlds conversationally with Bevy
• you need MCP integration with editors and AI coding assistants
• you want kernel-level sandboxing for agent shell commands without Docker

When to avoid

• you need a hosted or multi-user production chat service
• you want a managed cloud LLM experience with zero local setup
• you need production-grade 3D content creation beyond procedural primitives
• you require a mature, battle-tested assistant with a large ecosystem
