Free Models requires a cloud workspace

Error

Neural Inverse Free Models requires a Neural Inverse Cloud workspace.

Why this happens

Free Models are hosted on Neural Inverse Cloud infrastructure. They're a benefit of using a Neural Inverse Cloud workspace — they don't work in standalone local mode.

Fix

Option A: Connect to Neural Inverse Cloud

1. Sign up at cloud.neuralinverse.com (free, no credit card)
2. Create a workspace
3. Connect your desktop IDE: Remote Explorer → Neural Inverse Cloud
4. Select any free model from the model picker

Option B: Use your own models

If you don't want a cloud workspace, configure a different provider in settings:

• Local models — Ollama, vLLM, LM Studio (no account needed)
• Cloud APIs — Anthropic, OpenAI, DeepSeek, Groq, Mistral, etc. (bring your own key)

Open settings (gear icon or Cmd+,) → select a provider → enter your API key or endpoint.

See LLM Providers for the full list.
