llmfit

llmfit is a terminal-based utility that helps developers determine which large language models can realistically run on their local hardware by analyzing system resources and model requirements. The tool automatically detects CPU, RAM, GPU, and VRAM specifications, then ranks available models based on performance factors such as speed, quality, and memory fit. It provides both an interactive terminal user interface and a traditional CLI mode, enabling flexible workflows for different user preferences. llmfit also supports advanced configurations including multi-GPU setups, mixture-of-experts architectures, and dynamic quantization recommendations. By presenting clear performance estimates and compatibility guidance, the project reduces the trial-and-error typically involved in local LLM experimentation. Overall, llmfit serves as a practical decision assistant for developers who want to run language models efficiently on their own machines.
