2. Register (free)

AlphaLlama requires a free account. Register at alphachat.com/auth/register, then save your license token:

# After registering on alphachat.com, save your license token:
mkdir -p ~/.alphachat
echo "YOUR_LICENSE_TOKEN" > ~/.alphachat/license.jwt

Free tier: 2M token context, unlimited queries. No credit card needed.

3. Download a Model

# Download a model from HuggingFace (example: Qwen3.6 35B MoE)
# Any GGUF model works — see Models page for full list
curl -L https://huggingface.co/unsloth/Qwen3.5-35B-A3B-GGUF/resolve/main/Qwen3.5-35B-A3B-Q4_K_M.gguf -o model.gguf

Browse all supported models on the Models page. Any GGUF file works.

4. Run the Server

# Start AlphaLlama (auto-detects GPU)
./alphallama -m model.gguf --port 18080 -ngl 999

# Open the web UI in your browser
# http://localhost:18080

The server starts a web UI at the specified port. -ngl 999 offloads all layers to GPU.

5. Query via API

# OpenAI-compatible endpoint
curl http://localhost:18080/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"model":"qwen","messages":[{"role":"user","content":"hello"}]}'

# Ollama-compatible endpoints also work:
# /api/chat, /api/tags, /api/ps, /api/show

Compatible with any app that uses the OpenAI SDK — just change the base URL to http://localhost:18080.

6. Advanced Options

# Set context size (default: 4096)
./alphallama -m model.gguf --port 18080 -ngl 999 --ctx-size 32768

# Run multiple parallel requests
./alphallama -m model.gguf --port 18080 -ngl 999 --ctx-size 32768 --parallel 4

# Bind to all interfaces (for remote access)
./alphallama -m model.gguf --host 0.0.0.0 --port 18080 -ngl 999

# Skip license check (cloud/RunPod deployment)
./alphallama -m model.gguf --port 18080 -ngl 999 --no-license
