README excerpt
PS5LM Your PS5 runs the language model. Every device on your network uses it. llama.cpp on the console's GPU, with OpenAI and Anthropic APIs and a screen made for the TV. Get the app · Website · Get started · Issues > **New: decision models, powered by Ollaya.** PS5LM now runs Jev-like > decision models (d1, Clef, OpenJev and more) on the GPU and answers the same `/v1/systemone` > API as Ollaya: typed decisions with calibrated probabilities, in a fraction of a second. PS5LM is for anyone with a jailbroken PS5 who wants a private model server at home. It loads a GGUF model onto the console's GPU and serves it to your laptop, your phone and your coding tools. It needs no PC while it runs, no cloud and no account. Qwen 3.5 9B answering requests from a laptop on a PS5 Slim. Click for the video. Home, Models, Console, API and Settings on the TV. ## A model server under your TV - **It runs on the GPU.** llama.cpp's Vulkan backend on the console's RDNA 2 GPU, with 11.4 GB of the shared memory for the model and its context. Every architecture and quantization llama.cpp knows comes along. - **It answers your network.** OpenAI's `/v1/chat/completions`, Anthropic's `/v1/messages` (Claude Code works against it) and a chat page in any browser. Point a client at `http:// :8081` and use any model name: the loaded one answers. - **It decides, too.** Load a decision model and the console answers TypeSafe's `/v1/systemone`: choice, score and yes-or-no questions about text and images, the API Ollaya serves on a PC. - **It shows its work.** Every request streams across the TV as a chat: which device asked, what it asked, and the reply as it is written. Square sends a demo and Triangle opens a keyboard, so the console can be tried from the couch. - **It watches the console.** A Console page charts temperature, power, GPU and CPU load over the last two minutes or the last hour, beside a table of every reading. - **It picks what fits.** The planner reads each GGUF and gives it the longest context and best cache that fit the memory free. A Suggested list holds models measured on the console, and the app downloads from Hugging Face by itself, to internal storage, the M.2 drive or a USB drive. - **It reads images.** Models with an image projector (Gemma 4, MiniCPM-V, d1) take pictures in chat and in decisions. | Model | Size | On a PS5 Slim | |---|---|---| | Qwen 3.5 0.8B, Q4_K_M | 0.5 GB | 207 tokens a second | | Qwen 3.5 9B, Q4_K_M | 5.3 GB | 55 tokens a second | | Qwen 3.8 27B, UD-Q2_K_XL | 9.2 GB | about 20 tokens a second, 64k context | | d1 Omni 600M, a decision model | 1.1 GB | 3 questions in 0.3 s; a 720p image and 7 questions in 2.9 s | ## Decision models, powered by Ollaya Ollaya runs open decision models on a PC the way Ollama runs language models. PS5LM brings the same idea to the console: a decision model reads a state and answers typed questions in one forward pass, with no text generated. [code] The Suggested list has d1 Omni 600M,
