Do you use qwen for any coding? Do you make a frontier model orchestrate it? Are you running with llama.cpp? Sorry for the barrage of questions, but I've been interesting in local AI for a while, yet I've struggled to set up anything usable.
No.
>Do you make a frontier model orchestrate it?
Also no.
>Are you running with llama.cpp?
Yes, on Arch Linux.
>Sorry for the barrage of questions
No worries.
My Qwen testing has been with Hermes trying to do mundane (to me) things that hosted models understandably refuse to do, even open-weight ones like Deepseek V4.1 Flash. Example: I tried to get it to find a torrent for $tvshow and add it to qbittorrent (connected to hermes via MCP already). It certainly tried and I think frontier models would have done better. My biggest issue was context space more than anything else. I had to drop down a quant level to increase it to 128k. On 64k it was constantly compacting.
