Mesh LLM

mesh-llm turns spare compute into a peer-to-peer inference cloud for open models.

mesh-llm pools GPUs across macOS and Linux machines so teams, researchers, and agents can run local or open-weight models through one OpenAI-compatible endpoint. It can serve a model on one node, distribute large models across nearby peers, route requests to specialized models, and let agents coordinate through mesh gossip.

What it is for

• Share spare GPU capacity across trusted machines.
• Run open models locally without a centralized inference provider.
• Serve an OpenAI-compatible API at http://localhost:9337/v1.
• Route requests across multiple nodes, models, and capabilities.
• Experiment with distributed inference, MoE expert sharding, and agent collaboration.

Mesh uses a pipelined/network aware distributed inference approach built on llama.cpp called "skippy" - https://github.com/Mesh-LLM/hf-mesh-skippy-splitter contains current code which prepares models so layers can be efficiently JIT downloaded for participating nodes.
