LM Studio provider for the WordPress AI Client.

Description

This plugin provides LM Studio integration for the WordPress AI Client. It lets WordPress sites use large language models running locally via LM Studio for text and image generation and other AI capabilities.

LM Studio exposes an OpenAI-compatible API, and this provider uses that API to communicate with any model you have loaded into LM Studio.

Features:

  • Text generation with any LM Studio model
  • Image generation with supported models
  • Automatic model discovery from your LM Studio instance
  • Function calling support
  • Structured output (JSON mode) support
  • Settings page for host URL and seeing available models
  • Works without an API key for local instances

Requirements:

  • PHP 7.4 or higher
  • WordPress 7.0 or higher
  • LM Studio running locally on your machine

Installation

  1. Upload the plugin files to /wp-content/plugins/ai-provider-for-lm-studio/.
  2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress.
  3. Go to Settings > LM Studio to configure the host URL and see available models.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I install LM Studio?

Visit lmstudio.ai to download and install LM Studio for your platform. Once installed, load a model and the provider will automatically discover it.

Do I need an API key?

No. For local LM Studio instances, no API key is needed. The plugin automatically handles authentication for local setups.

How do I change the LM Studio host URL?

By default, the provider connects to http://localhost:1234. You can change this in two ways:

  1. Set the LM_STUDIO_HOST environment variable (takes precedence).
  2. Go to Settings > LM Studio in the WordPress admin and enter your host URL.
