+## `local-ai chat` stopped being a REPL
+
+`local-ai chat` used to be a chat prompt in a terminal. It is now an agent, and it is the [nib](https://github.com/mudler/nib) harness compiled straight into the binary: tool use behind an approval gate, sub-agents, MCP servers, plugins and skills, auto-configured against your own instance. Nothing extra to install.
+
+```bash
+local-ai chat                      # the agent, pointed at your models
+echo "what is 2+2" | local-ai chat --cli
+local-ai chat --init zsh           # Ctrl+Space from any shell prompt
+```
+
+That last one prints a shell integration script (zsh, bash or fish), so you can pull the agent up from wherever you already are instead of opening something else.
+
+It runs shell commands now, so every tool call goes through an approval prompt you control, and read-only ones like `ls` and `cat` run without asking. If you had habits around the old REPL, a few things moved: `/clear` is gone and `/compact` is the closest thing, `/models` and `/model <name>` mean what they always meant, and switching model keeps the conversation instead of starting over ([#11291](https://github.com/mudler/LocalAI/pull/11291)).

 ## One backend, six audio endpoints
 
 The usual shape for audio is one backend per model family, which means a process per capability and a config file for each. `audio-cpp` wraps [audio.cpp](https://github.com/0xShug0/audio.cpp), a multi-family ggml audio engine. One backend process serves several unrelated families through a single runtime vocabulary, and works out which family a checkpoint belongs to from the GGUF's own `audiocpp.model_spec.family` metadata key. There is nothing backend-specific to write in the model config.
