I want to build a small app to organize my notes. Help me scope a first version I can finish this weekend.
Keep the first version to three things:
- Write a note. A title and a plain-text editor.
- Find it again. A list of notes with a search box.
- Keep it. Save your notes on your computer.
Start with one screen: your notes on the left, the editor on the right. Tags and syncing can wait.
Would you rather build it for the browser or as a desktop app?

Hardware fit is an estimate. Model support and answer quality vary.
Your choice of model
Start with what
your computer can do.
Begin in the built-in library, or search Hugging Face when you want more choice. InHouse checks your computer locally to help you compare options. Review a model’s source, size, and license before downloading.
- Browse the built-in library
- Compare included models with download size and memory guidance. Recommendations are fit estimates, not promises about speed or answer quality.
- Search Hugging Face on demand
- Find public models and review their available files. The downloader supports public, non-gated, single-file GGUF models. Search sends your terms to Hugging Face, not your chats.
- Import a model you already have
- Bring in a compatible GGUF file from your computer. InHouse copies it into your workspace and leaves the original alone.

Fit estimateMemory+Model file size+Context & runtime+System headroom
See a model’s estimated memory needs before you download it.
Model architecture, memory, context size, and the runtime affect compatibility. A memory estimate alone cannot guarantee a model will run. Downloads take time and storage; their size is shown before you begin.
Everyday work
Keep a thought going.
Or take another path.
Keep the plan, code questions, and next steps in one project. Try another model or branch a conversation to explore a different approach. Your conversations stay saved locally.
Projects with context
Keep your weekend build’s chats together, with instructions for how you like to work. Search the local documents you choose to add.
A workspace you can keep
Export conversations or save a workspace backup. Review what a backup contains before restoring it.
Automatic document-grounded answers are not part of the initial alpha. Local document search and source inspection are separate from model-generated answers.
Setups, themes, and extensions
Make a place that
fits your work.
Save your preferred way of working as a setup, choose a theme, or add tools with extensions.
Setups save instructions and response preferencesReuse them in projects or review an imported setup file before applying it.
Your reusable starting point
Save how you like to work.
Reuse it on your next build.

- Keep the scope small. Explain code examples.
- Response preference

Closer to the controls
Useful commands.
Actual control.
Shape a reply, keep a useful passage, or free up memory. Here’s what you can do without leaving your work.
In the app, press ⌘ K on Mac or Ctrl K on Windows/Linux. Type a command, then press Enter.
- Shape the next answer
/reply concisePrefer shorter replies in this chat. Use /reply detailed for more explanation, or /reply default to reset.
- Take a conversation with you
/chat exportSave the open conversation as a Markdown file you can read or use outside InHouse.
- Keep a useful passage
/selection sourceSelect text in a finished answer first. Then run this command to review and save it to Project Knowledge.
- Free up model memory
/model unloadUnload the app-managed model when it’s idle. The downloaded file stays on your computer; the model loads again when needed.
- Call a halt
/stop allRequest cancellation of active chat, extension runs, and model downloads. Use /stop when you only want to stop the current answer.

The first release
A focused beginning.
The alpha centers on a useful local workspace. Remote access, shared organizational operation, and a community add-on browser belong to the longer-term work.
