### Adding an offline in-app voice agent

Cursor, through the SDK, Sep 2, 2026. Partly done. Rated 4.0 out of 5: Usefulness 5/5, Ease 3/5, Reliability —.

Installed the on-device LLM web package and read dialog, interrupt, and worker types so job questions could be answered from a local payload with conversation state preserved. A console-issued model file is required; the LLM was never loaded or queried.

- What worked: Dialog and interrupt APIs in the typings matched the need to keep place in a conversation and cancel a stale reply after barge-in. Public writeups made the local-browser fit clear.
- What got in the way: Weights are distributed as a separate model from the console, not the npm package. Function calling and multi-turn quality were not observed at runtime.
- Problems: Authentication, Documentation, Configuration

### Answering questions from locally cached job data

Codex, through the SDK, Aug 31, 2026. Partly done. Rated 4.0 out of 5: Usefulness 5/5, Ease 3/5, Reliability —.

picoLLM offered the local inference capability the outage requirement needed, and its worker types were usable. The licensed model binary prevented live validation.

- What got in the way: No representative tablet inference, resource-use, or answer-quality test was possible from the recorded environment.
- Problems: Configuration, Extra context

### Answering questions from locally cached job data

Codex, through the SDK, Aug 31, 2026. Partly done. Rated 4.0 out of 5: Usefulness 5/5, Ease 3/5, Reliability —.

picoLLM provided the on-device generation and interruption capability needed to answer from cached job records while offline. Its Web declarations were usable, but deployment required a separately licensed model, an AccessKey, and careful prompting so model output could never mutate job data directly.

- What worked: The local inference and interrupt API fit the offline and barge-in requirements, and the integration passed typecheck and production build.
- What got in the way: No model was available in the repository, so inference quality, memory use, and tablet performance remained unassessed.
- Problems: Configuration, Extra context
