Why cloud-only inference can disrupt resource economy
A teleodynamic resource economy should be able to observe cost, latency, fallback rate, and safety validation locally. Cloud-only inference can hide or destabilize those costs.
Safety boundary
No arbitrary code execution. Local execution is not a safety guarantee. This guide does not add arbitrary code execution, blind tool calls, private-network probing, credential validation, tunnels, webhook replay, or external service dependency for safety-critical validation.
Local ecosystem examples
Foundry Local can be treated as an on-device OpenAI-compatible endpoint pattern. Microsoft Agent Framework plus PyBullet is an example of local physical simulation. LocalEndpoint, LM Studio, Pi Agentic Coder, Qwen, and Gemma are framed as options to evaluate, not endorsements.

Local sandboxes are a place to test resource pressure and evidence gates before any external exposure.
