01 · Quick start
Start here
Three pages, then you're running.
Get started
Install RoachNet on a Mac
Download the DMG, check its hash, open a not-notarized installer safely, and see where everything lands.
Guide
API

Reference
Models
Point a tool at the model server
RoachInference speaks the Ollama, OpenAI and Anthropic formats on 127.0.0.1:36434, so the tools you already use can point straight at it.

02 · Network
What leaves your Mac
Network and privacy has the details.
RoachNet collects no analytics. Its four local servers listen on 127.0.0.1 and nowhere else. It goes online for a short list of reasons, and here's the whole list.
You asked for it
Downloads. Models, maps, packs and catalogs you choose to fetch.
On its own
Updates and catalogs. RoachNet checks GitHub for new versions of itself and refreshes its map, archive and pack catalogs from apps.roachnet.org.
You turned it on
Optional features. A RoachNet account, web chat, RoachTail to your own devices, trace export, or Claude and ChatGPT plans through your own CLI.
