Model
GameTerm ships with Qwen. The installer downloads Qwen3 8B and runs it on your Mac. Any model served through the OpenAI chat completions JSON API works the same way: point GameTerm at the server and it talks to it like the local one.
Note A second server with Qwen3.5 27B on a graphics card and points GameTerm at it over the network was tested in DEV.
