Runs onThe places the vendor's own pages say the product runs: your machine, a container environment you run, or a cloud service the vendor runs. It is not a limit.
Models runWhere the vendor's own pages say the product's models run, not a limit: your machine, a container environment you run, the model company's cloud (servers of the company that makes or serves the model), or a cloud provider's model service. For a cloud, read the data and compliance lines of the company running it, linked by its name.
Local and cloud togetherA local model (on your machine or in a container environment you run) and a cloud model (in its model company's cloud or a cloud provider's model service) can both be used in the same session or setup.
Same role (model server) at the same layer (Model hosting). Up to 4 others, in alphabetical order; nothing is ranked.

Model on your machineThe tool can use a model running on your own computer, for example through Ollama, LM Studio, oMLX or llama.cpp.
Local and cloudA local model (on your machine or in a container environment you run) and a cloud model (in its model company's cloud or a cloud provider's model service) can both be used in the same session or setup.
Words in the cells: YesA page we read says so., PartlyA page says part of it, for example separate models per agent without saying the providers can differ., Via a proxyOnly with a proxy, or a local server that imitates a cloud provider's interface, in front of the tool., NoA page we read says the product does not support it., ClaimedA vendor page says so on a marketing or overview page, and we found no guide showing how to set it up., Not foundWe read pages for it and found nothing there. It says nothing about whether the product has the feature., n/aThe question does not apply to the product, for example because it is a model server and not a tool that connects to models., BlankNothing is published for it yet.
Data and compliance
Compliance: Set by whoever runs itThe answer belongs to whoever runs the software, because open-source software has no maker running it for you., for their own deployment.

Local models
Ollama's documentation home presents a choice between cloud models and running models on your own computer. (docs.ollama.com page, read 2026-10-20)
Cloud models
For Claude Desktop, Ollama's integration page says that using a cloud model means signing in to Ollama and enabling cloud models; the next sentence says some models need a paid subscription. (docs.ollama.com page, read 2026-10-20)
Claude Code with a local server
Ollama links Claude Code with local and cloud models using its Anthropic-compatible API. (docs.ollama.com page, read 2026-10-21)Caveat: The Claude Code gateway page says Anthropic provides no support when a gateway sends Claude Code's requests to models that are not Claude (code.claude.com page, read 2026-10-21).
What a local model must meet
Ollama's page on its Anthropic-compatible API says that, for models it calls compatible, messages, streaming and function calling are supported. (docs.ollama.com page, read 2026-10-21)
Ollama's page on its OpenAI-compatible API says that API gives no way to set a model's context size, and tells a reader who needs a different size to create a Modelfile with a num_ctx parameter. (docs.ollama.com page, read 2026-10-19)
