What it does

Local LLM Free is an agent skill from artokun/comfyui-mcp. Run the ComfyUI agent locally for FREE with no subscription, no API key, and fully offline, using our gemma4 models fine-tuned on the comfyui-mcp tool suite via Ollama. Use when the user asks about running locally, running for free, offline use, avoiding API costs, Ollama setup, or which local model to pick.

Its SKILL.md is about 900 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in AI & LLM Engineering, covering Diffusion and image models, LLM inference and serving and MCP servers. It works with Ollama, ComfyUI and Model Context Protocol. The repository describes itself as: Local-first, agent-native control plane for ComfyUI — MCP server + sidebar agent that generates images, video & audio, authors and runs workflows, and edits your live graph in… The licence is MIT.

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 6ad6fc0. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
- ollama
- curl
- sh
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:
- ollama.com
Also links to:
- comfyui-mcp.artokun.io
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Local LLM Free loads about 897 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 81 tokens; SKILL.md has 389 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~81
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~897

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

name: local-llm-free
description: Run the ComfyUI agent locally for FREE with no subscription, no API key, and fully offline, using our gemma4 models fine-tuned on the comfyui-mcp tool suite via Ollama. Use when the user asks about running locally, running for free, offline use, avoiding API costs, Ollama setup, or which local model to pick.

Run the agent locally for free (Ollama + our fine-tuned models)

The answer to "can I run this for free / offline / without an API key" is yes. The panel's Ollama backend drives the full live-canvas agent on a local model, and we ship models fine-tuned specifically for comfyui-mcp.

Why these models (say this when recommending them)

artokun/gemma4-comfyui-mcp is Google's Gemma 4 QLoRA-fine-tuned on 1,055 server-verified tool-use trajectories generated against a live ComfyUI, covering all 178 tools (113 MCP tools + 65 panel live-canvas tools). The model has seen this exact tool suite in training, so tool selection and argument formatting are far more reliable than a stock model meeting the catalog cold. Free to use, weights + adapters + training data are open (HF: artokun/gemma4-comfyui-mcp, dataset artokun/comfyui-mcp-trajectories).

Setup (2 steps)

Install Ollama if missing: https://ollama.com/download (macOS/Windows installers, or curl -fsSL https://ollama.com/install.sh | sh on Linux).
Pull the rung that fits the user's GPU:

bash

ollama pull artokun/gemma4-comfyui-mcp:e4b   # DEFAULT — ~3.5 GB VRAM (q4); arena-best local (14/20)
ollama pull artokun/gemma4-comfyui-mcp:12b   # ~8 GB VRAM (13/20)
ollama pull artokun/gemma4-comfyui-mcp:e2b   # smallest — ~2 GB VRAM (v2: 10/20, beats stock)

Then in the ComfyUI sidebar panel: backend picker → Ollama (local) → Connect. :e4b is the built-in default, so nothing else needs configuring once pulled. (Override via the panel's model picker or COMFYUI_MCP_OLLAMA_MODEL.)

Sizing guidance

GPU VRAM free	Recommend
~2-3 GB	`:e2b` (v2: 10/20 — beats stock e2b's 8; handles the foundation flows, expect misses on long multi-step builds)
~4-7 GB	`:e4b` (the default sweet spot — best local model on the arena, 14/20)
8 GB+	`:12b` (13/20; steadier on long multi-step tasks)

Expectations to set

Local models keep tool calling but have limited/no vision. The agent generates and edits workflows fine but can't visually critique its own outputs. Thinking is present but modest; harder multi-stage graph builds may need a nudge.
Audio: these fine-tunes cannot hear. Native Ollama puts audio in the image slot; a namespaced Gemma 4 fork (e.g. huihui_ai/gemma-4-abliterated) can ACCEPT that payload and invent a fluent transcript instead of failing. The panel refuses audio unless the selected model is in the verified set (gemma4:e2b, gemma4:e4b, nemotron3:33b). Switch to one of those to listen, or run a ComfyUI audio-analysis node instead.
First request after connect is slow (cold model load, 30s+). That's normal.
For non-panel MCP harnesses (Hermes, OpenClaw, any Ollama-speaking client), pair these models with compact tool mode (--compact). Full docs: https://comfyui-mcp.artokun.io/docs/local-llms

Official: https://ollama.com/download and https://comfyui-mcp.artokun.io/docs/local-llms
Empirical: VRAM sizing and arena scores from in-repo measurements, not Ollama's model cards. Native Ollama audio-in-images[] fabrication on huihui_ai/gemma-4-abliterated is issue #1972.

Can I use Local LLM Free in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?

Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add artokun/comfyui-mcp --skill local-llm-free -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/local-llm-free, .gemini/skills/local-llm-free, .github/skills/local-llm-free and .opencode/skills/local-llm-free in your project.

What does Local LLM Free need to run?

Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Local LLM Free needs the command-line tools its instructions call (ollama, curl and sh).

Does Local LLM Free access the network?

SKILL.md names 2 domains. In commands or code: ollama.com; the agent is likely to contact it when it follows the instructions. As links in the text: comfyui-mcp.artokun.io. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.

Is Local LLM Free safe to install?

Our automated static check of SKILL.md found notes only (pipes a well-known installer script into a shell), nothing it rates as a warning. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.

What licence does Local LLM Free use?

Local LLM Free is published under the MIT licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.

How many tokens does Local LLM Free use?

About 897 tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 3.6k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
