The llama.cpp server has introduced support for the Anthropic Messages API, a highly requested feature that allows users to run Claude-compatible clients with locally hosted models. This implementation enables powerful tools like Claude Code to interface directly with local GGUF models by internally converting Anthropic's message format to OpenAI's standard. Key features of this update include full support for chat completions with streaming, advanced tool use through function calling, token counting capabilities, vision support for multimodal models, and extended thinking for reasoning models. This development bridges the gap between proprietary AI ecosystems and local, privacy-focused inference pipelines, providing a seamless experience for developers working with agentic workloads and coding assistants.
