Runs on a private AI box you own
One compact GB10-class device — 128 GB unified memory — runs it on-premise, sold and provisioned by us. No cloud API keys, no data leaving the building.
Run Cline on a private AI box
License: Apache-2.0
An autonomous coding agent inside VS Code that plans, edits across files, and runs commands — against a model hosted on your own box.
What it is
- An open-source VS Code extension that takes a task and works across your project.
- Shows its plan and diffs for approval as it goes.
- Has a first-class "OpenAI Compatible" provider for local endpoints.
Cline is an independent project. BrainOutput has no affiliation, endorsement, or partnership with it — we sell the private hardware you can run it on. Project: Cline.
Cloud API keys vs your private box
The tool is the same either way. What changes is where your prompts and files go, and how you pay.
| Cloud API keys | Your private box | |
|---|---|---|
| Data location | Prompts and files are sent to a third-party API | Everything stays on hardware in your office |
| Cost model | Metered per token — scales with usage, indefinitely | A fixed hardware cost — local inference is unmetered |
| Availability | Vendor uptime, rate limits, and model retirements apply | Runs offline; you control uptime and model versions |
| EU compliance | Data-transfer and processor terms to manage per vendor | EU hardware on your premises — sovereignty is physical, not contractual |
| Model choice | Whatever the vendor exposes | Any open-weight model that fits the box — swap freely |
Indicative hardware start prices are €3 650,22 HT (ASUS) / €4 328,25 HT (Dell); the full sovereign setup is sur devis.
How it connects to your box
Cline's API-provider list includes an "OpenAI Compatible" option (plus LM Studio / Ollama presets).
- Select the OpenAI Compatible provider and paste your box's base URL.
- Choose the served model — Cline then works against your private model in-editor.
How BrainOutput fits
- We supply the device and a capable local coder model for Cline to drive.
- Your codebase and the agent's actions stay on your own hardware.
Frequently asked questions
- Can Cline run without a cloud key?
- Yes — its OpenAI Compatible provider points at your box's local endpoint, so it needs no cloud key for inference.
- Does it edit files on its own?
- It proposes plans and diffs you approve; the approval flow keeps you in control while the model runs privately.
- License?
- Apache-2.0, verified against its repository.
Run it on a box we set up for you
We size the device, install an OpenAI-compatible model stack, and hand you the endpoint this app points at. The app stays free and yours.
