Show HN: A single CLI to manage llama.cpp/vLLM/Ollama models

Harbor crossed its 127th (next one is special) release. One notable added feature is ability to manage all my LLMs with a single CLI. # list all models harbor ls # pairs well with jq harbor ls --json # Ollama harbor pull qwen3.5:35b # llama.cpp harbor pull unsloth/Qwen3.5-35B-A3B-GGUF:Q8_0 # vllm (HuggingFace Hub cache) harbor pull Qwen/Qwen3.5-35B-A3B # Remove any of the models by the same id # used to pull it harbor rm <id> Hopefully it'll be useful for someone too.

There are too many LLM-related projects. Setting up multiple runtimes, Python, Node, Go, Rust and then some environments, different CUDA versions, dependencies is tedious. Managing updates later is even worse. So, I'm building a toolkit that allows to keep things simple for the end user. Run Ollama and Open WebUI configured to work together: `harbor up ollama webui`. Don't like Ollama? Then `harbor up llamacpp webui`. There are 17 backends, 14 frontends and 50+ different satellite projects, config profiles that can be imported from a URL, tunnels, and a helper desktop app. https://github.com/av/harbor?tab=readme-ov-file#what-can-har...

Show HN: Harbor – Containerized LLM Toolkit

Hi, Harbor is a toolkit to run LLMs and related services locally. It's not designed as a deployment solution, rather as a convenient local environment. I was rocking a very similar setup (less components and features though) and then decided to polish it a little bit and make it open source. Few interesting details about the project: - Dynamic sub-selection of compose files to run together depending on which services are currently running. For example, Harbor knows that you're running SearXNG and Open WebUI together and injects a config for Web RAG based on SearXNG into the WebUI, same for TTS and LLM backends - CLI supports arguments scrambling via a retry, e.g. `harbor set config` and `harbor config set` run the same command, it's supported for nearly all first pairs of arguments to the CLI - Being an LLM project - after the setup you c

an ask CLI how to do something: `harbor how to configure vllm model?` (yes, no quotes), 50% gimmick, but very fun Cheers, Ivan P.S. Forgive me for all the shell sins in the source.
