MLX Server
A thin HTTP wrapper for serving Apple MLX models on a local Mac as an OpenAI-compatible endpoint.
- Python
- MLX
- FastAPI
- Apple Silicon
MLX Server exposes a local Apple MLX runtime as an OpenAI-compatible HTTP API,
so existing tools — anything that already speaks chat/completions — can talk
to a model running on the Mac on your desk instead of a remote provider.
Replace this placeholder body with the real write-up.
Why MLX, why a server
Running models locally on Apple Silicon is fast enough to be useful, but most tools assume an OpenAI-shaped endpoint. A small server bridges the gap without re-implementing client SDKs.
Notes from production
A few specific things worth documenting — context length quirks, sampling parameters, where streaming behaves differently from the upstream API, etc.
Roadmap
What’s next, if anything.
