Hello.
I've been using codex, gemini CLI and it feels like I'm experiencing a whole new world. I've used LLMs for coding in a similar way before, but after using these two, it really feels like a different world. I have also developed some things with my own use. A while ago, I even received a message saying that I had used up all the tokens in Codex for the first time.
I'm using a Mac mini M4/24G as both a server and a coding agent like Codex, Gemini CLI. What are some good combinations to use it this way? I tried running Qwen 3.8 27B but it was too slow so I gave up. Currently, I'm using the Gemma4-code 12b+Pi combination, which is tolerable for now, but it's also slow. Since this is my first attempt, I wonder if there are other more efficient and better combinations.
My intended use is,
Automating processes within a computer (downloads, file management, etc.)
Creating WordPress related code (plugins, code modifications, etc.)
Creating Python code.
I would appreciate your help as a beginner!
Thank you.
