@openclaw/llama-cpp-provider

Official llama.cpp text-inference and embedding provider for OpenClaw.

This plugin runs local GGUF chat and embedding models in-process through node-llama-cpp.

Install

openclaw plugins install @openclaw/llama-cpp-provider

Restart the Gateway after installing or updating the plugin. Use Node 24 for native installs and updates.

Configure text inference

Choose Local model (llama.cpp) during onboarding. After explicit consent, OpenClaw downloads the approximately 2.5 GB Qwen3 4B Instruct 2507 Q4_K_M default. Discovery never downloads a model.

See the llama.cpp provider guide for custom GGUF model configuration and hardware guidance.

Configure embeddings

Set agents.defaults.memorySearch.provider to local. By default, the plugin downloads and uses the EmbeddingGemma GGUF model. Configure agents.defaults.memorySearch.local.modelPath to use another local path, Hugging Face model URI, or HTTPS model URL.
