llama.cpp: High-Performance Open-Source LLM Inference in C/C++

llama.cpp: a dependency-free C/C++ LLM/VLM inference engine on GGML, enabling quantized local execution across Apple Silicon, CUDA, Vulkan and CPUs, the backbone of much local AI tooling.

Serves as the critical infrastructure powering offline local LLM deployment, private security research environments, and air-gapped agent operations without data leakage risks.
