The GitHub README describes it as a UNIX tool, local OpenAI-compatible server, and interactive chat interface with no cloud service, no API keys, and no model download. The project is implemented in Swift and targets macOS 26 Tahoe and Apple Silicon. Its documentation emphasizes shell composition, JSON output, stdin/stdout behavior, local HTTP compatibility with OpenAI SDKs, and on-device inference. ### Adoptionsgeschichte apfel's official site reports rapid GitHub adoption in 2026 and the repository lists thousands of stars. Homebrew packaging made the command available as a one-command install for macOS users. ### Wie es verwendet wird Users run apfel directly as a UNIX filter, start a local server with apfel --serve, or use apfel --chat for an interactive REPL. The documented server exposes a localhost OpenAI-compatible API at /v1 for chat completions, responses, model listing, health checks, tool calling, and structured output. The official site states that apfel needs no YAML, environment variables, model selection, subscriptions, or API keys for its core local model use. ### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren apfel is package-nerd significant because it packages an operating-system model API as a composable command-line tool and localhost API backend. It gives Homebrew users an immediately scriptable local LLM endpoint without a model artifact, daemon setup, or cloud credential path. ### Zeitleiste - 2026: Official documentation describes macOS 26 Tahoe and Apple Silicon as requirements. - 2026: v1.8.0 documented on the official site and GitHub release metadata. - 2026: Official site reports thousands of GitHub stars and Homebrew installation as the primary quick start. ### Related projects - The official site lists related apfel-family tools such as apfel-chat, apfel-gui, apfel-mcp, apfel-run, apfel-server-kit, auge, and translate. ### Quellen - - - - source_facts.package-manager ## Sicherheitshinweise formula declares a Homebrew service. - **Geiger-Risiko:** orange / mittel - formula declares a Homebrew service ## Andere Paketmanager-Einträge - Nix - apfel: normalized package name match | nixpkgs package indexes: pkgs/by-name/ap/apfel/package.nix from https://api.github.com/repos/NixOS/nixpkgs/git/trees/master?recursive=1 - zypper - apfel-devel - 3.1.1-2.12: normalized package name match | openSUSE Tumbleweed package metadata: apfel-devel from https://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/repo/oss/repodata/50b07339cb64c8ed4091bdbabddadc1ff5737b090e478818a195b40d8a3292861a879139b4a3987c31109699fde9fbf4a716367ddf4eef77da75f96e3193d6ed-primary.xml.zst | Development files for Apfel, a PDF Evolution Library | http://apfel.hepforge.org/ - zypper - apfel-devel-static - 3.1.1-2.12: normalized package name match | openSUSE Tumbleweed package metadata: apfel-devel-static from https://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/repo/oss/repodata/50b07339cb64c8ed4091bdbabddadc1ff5737b090e478818a195b40d8a3292861a879139b4a3987c31109699fde9fbf4a716367ddf4eef77da75f96e3193d6ed-primary.xml.zst | Static development files for Apfel, a PDF Evolution library | http://apfel.hepforge.org/ - zypper - apfel-doc - 3.1.1-2.12: normalized package name match | openSUSE Tumbleweed package metadata: apfel-doc from https://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/repo/oss/repodata/50b07339cb64c8ed4091bdbabddadc1ff5737b090e478818a195b40d8a3292861a879139b4a3987c31109699fde9fbf4a716367ddf4eef77da75f96e3193d6ed-primary.xml.zst | Documentation for APFEL, a PDF evolution library | http://apfel.hepforge.org/ - zypper - libAPFEL0_0_0 - 3.1.1-2.12: normalized package name match | openSUSE Tumbleweed package metadata: libAPFEL0_0_0 from https://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/repo/oss/repodata/50b07339cb64c8ed4091bdbabddadc1ff5737b090e478818a195b40d8a3292861a879139b4a3987c31109699fde9fbf4a716367ddf4eef77da75f96e3193d6ed-primary.xml.zst | A Probability Distribution Function Evolution Library | http://apfel.hepforge.org/ - zypper - python313-apfel - 3.1.1-2.12: normalized package name match | openSUSE Tumbleweed package metadata: python313-apfel from https://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/repo/oss/repodata/50b07339cb64c8ed4091bdbabddadc1ff5737b090e478818a195b40d8a3292861a879139b4a3987c31109699fde9fbf4a716367ddf4eef77da75f96e3193d6ed-primary.xml.zst | A Probability Distribution Function Evolution Library | http://apfel.hepforge.org/ - zypper - python314-apfel - 3.1.1-2.12: normalized package name match | openSUSE Tumbleweed package metadata: python314-apfel from https://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/repo/oss/repodata/50b07339cb64c8ed4091bdbabddadc1ff5737b090e478818a195b40d8a3292861a879139b4a3987c31109699fde9fbf4a716367ddf4eef77da75f96e3193d6ed-primary.xml.zst | A Probability Distribution Function Evolution Library | http://apfel.hepforge.org/ - MacPorts - apfel: normalized package name match | MacPorts ports tree: llm/apfel/Portfile from https://api.github.com/repos/macports/macports-ports/git/trees/master?recursive=1 ## Combined YAML source View the package source record on GitHub.
