AI Tools

HarnessOS ships with a curated set of AI coding tools pre-configured and ready to use.

Claude CLI

Claude Code is Anthropic's official CLI for the Claude AI assistant. It provides an interactive terminal interface for AI-assisted coding.

Install (auto-installed on first boot with internet):

npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code

Launch:

claude
# or from Hyprland: SUPER + C

First run: Claude will prompt you to log in with your Anthropic account at claude.ai.

Common usage:

claude                    # Interactive session
claude "explain this"     # One-shot query
claude --help             # All options

Ollama (Local LLMs)

Ollama runs large language models locally — no internet required after downloading.

Service: ollama.service is enabled and starts automatically.

Pull a model (first run, requires internet):

ollama pull llama3.2       # ~2 GB, recommended for most hardware
ollama pull codellama      # Specialized for code generation
ollama pull deepseek-coder # Strong code model

Run a model:

ollama run llama3.2
# or from Hyprland: SUPER + O

List installed models:

ollama list

API: Ollama exposes a REST API at http://localhost:11434. Compatible with OpenAI API format.

curl http://localhost:11434/api/generate -d '{
  "model": "llama3.2",
  "prompt": "Write a Python function to sort a list"
}'

GitHub Copilot CLI

Copilot in the terminal via the gh CLI extension.

Install (auto-installed on first boot):

gh extension install github/gh-copilot

Authenticate:

gh auth login

Usage:

gh copilot suggest "list all docker containers sorted by size"
gh copilot explain "$(cat script.sh)"

Docker with GPU support

Docker is pre-configured with NVIDIA container runtime support (when NVIDIA GPU is detected by the installer).

# Run a container with GPU access
docker run --rm --gpus all nvidia/cuda:12.0-base nvidia-smi

# Run Ollama in Docker with GPU
docker run -d --gpus all -p 11434:11434 ollama/ollama
