OpenRoom adds llama.cpp, local model support

A community PR for MiniMax's OpenRoom adds first-class llama.cpp support to its browser desktop, letting it talk to local OpenAI-compatible backends. The patch also makes API keys optional for local setups and strips `<think>` blocks from model output.

// ANALYSIS

This is the kind of plumbing that turns a flashy agent demo into something local-model users will actually adopt.

  • Optional API keys lower the barrier for self-hosted, offline, and lab-only setups.
  • Routing through the existing OpenAI-compatible chat path should make llama.cpp fit alongside other local servers more cleanly.
  • Stripping `<think>` blocks is practical UI hygiene for reasoning models that leak chain-of-thought markup.
  • The Reddit example running Qwen3.5-35B-A3B-Q6_K and 27B suggests OpenRoom is already usable with serious local models, not just toy backends.
  • If merged, this gives OpenRoom a stronger pitch as a hackable desktop-agent shell for the LocalLLaMA crowd.
