Settings

Client Name

A unique name for the client that makes sense to you.

API Url

The URL of your LMStudio instance, without any path. For example, http://localhost:1234.

API Key

If the LMStudio instance requires an API key, you can set it here.

Context Length

The number of tokens to use as context when generating text. Defaults to 8192.

Common issues

Generations are weird / bad

Make sure the correct prompt template is assigned.

Could not connect

Client lmstudio could not connect

This means that either your LMStudio instance or server is not running, the url is incorrect, or the connection is somehow blocked. (For example, by a firewall)

Its not enough to just start LMStudio, you need to also start the server from within the application once you have started LMStudio.
