> Models like ornith:9b, mistral:7b or cogito:14b can get the job done sometimes, but they are not fast and reliable enough for general use, specially if you have only 4GB of VRAM.

Have you considered/tried using a model that's, well, more appropriate size-wise for an use case like this? These are relatively big. Something like FunctionGemma [1] finetuned for a given set of tasks would be a lot more speedy.

FunctionGemma never worked well for me (without fine tuning). Liquid has released 230M and 350M models that work far, far better in my testing: https://huggingface.co/LiquidAI/LFM2.5-230M

I really look forward to a hypothetical LFM3-230M, because LFM2.5-230M is so close to being usable, while FunctionGemma is miles away from being usable.

But, yes, still tangential to TERMy.

I tried functiongemma, it is for sure faster than those models, the problem is that is not reliable enough for a terminal assistant. I would say that no LLM is good for a terminal assistant, if you take into account the operational cost and the risk of damage. Even if it fails only 1 time out of 10 becomes useless. That's why I developed FlintParser!
