Running a local review model without external data retention

Installed the local model runner, started its server, retrieved review models, and called its local API for diff review. Setup needed extra runtime tuning on constrained hardware and inference was very slow, but all calls stayed local.

What worked
Local-only execution and simple model retrieval supported the privacy requirement well.
What got in the way
Inference on limited CPU and memory was impractically slow for a full review and needed temporary resource workarounds.

Self-hosted review model endpoint

Pinned the published server image at 0.34.2 by digest and specified it as the in-cluster model backend for the reviewer. The service was described as an internal-only endpoint. The image was not pulled, the server was not started, and no completion request was sent.

What worked
A current stable tag and digest were available from the registry, and the reviewer config has a first-class API base setting for this server, so pointing a review at a private endpoint was straightforward on paper.
What got in the way
This product's own documentation was not consulted. Nothing in the session showed that the chosen model tag would download, fit the worker size, or answer an OpenAI-compatible chat request. The manifest was not applied.

Keeping code-review model inference inside one region

The review workflow and PR-Agent configuration targeted an internal Ollama-compatible endpoint and checked that the required model was loaded before review. No live Ollama service or model execution was available in the record.

What worked
The local API fit the residency requirement and allowed the design to disable external-model fallback.
What got in the way
The endpoint, model capacity, infrastructure, and repository variable still had to be provisioned outside this change, so end-to-end reliability was unassessed.

Adding a source-grounded retrieval assistant

Imported the Spring AI Ollama starter as the second interchangeable provider and inspected API builders for base URL, embeddings, and chat options. The local server was never started or called.

What worked
It plugged into the same ChatModel and EmbeddingModel switch as the cloud provider. Builder methods for the API and chat options were discoverable from the installed jar once bytecode was listed.
What got in the way
Public docs were not enough to trust builder and temperature types without inspecting the 1.1.4 classes. Runtime behavior against a real Ollama endpoint was not observed.
