I kept seeing people here run into the same thing: Claude/API limits, token cost, and wanting to use OpenRouter, Qwen, GLM, local proxies, etc. without fighting the whole setup.

So I made a small adapter:

https://github.com/codeg-dev/paperclip-adapter-custom-llm-local

Install in Paperclip:

Settings → Adapters → Install Adapter
paperclip-adapter-custom-llm-local

Then use:

{
  "adapterType": "custom_llm_local",
  "adapterConfig": {
    "model": "your-model-id",
    "baseUrl": "http://127.0.0.1:8317/v1",
    "transport": "openai_chat_completions",
    "apiKeyEnv": "LOCAL_LLM_API_KEY"
  }
}

It supports OpenAI Chat Completions-compatible endpoints and Anthropic Messages-compatible endpoints.

The main point is simple: if you already have a local/proxy LLM endpoint, Paperclip agents can call it directly without going through a full CLI adapter.

Would love to hear what local/proxy setups people are running with Paperclip.
