Effortlessly run LLM backends, APIs, frontends, and services with one command.
Harbor is a containerized LLM toolkit that allows you to run LLMs and additional services. It consists of a CLI and a companion App that allows you to manage and run AI services with ease.
| What | Overview | Links |
|---|---|---|
| Local LLMs | Run LLMs and related services locally, with no or minimal configuration, typically in a single command or click. | Harbor CLI, Harbor App |
| Cutting Edge Inference | Harbor supports most of the major inference engines as well as a few of the lesser-known ones. | Inference Backends |
| Talk to your LLM | Setup voice chats with your LLM in a single command. Open WebUI + Speaches | harbor up speaches |
| Generate Images | ComfyUI + Flux + Open WebUI integration. | harbor up comfyui |
| Local Perplexity | Harbor includes SearXNG that is pre-connected to a lot of services out of the box. Connect your LLM to the Web. | harbor up searxng |
| LLM Workflows | Harbor includes multiple services for build LLM-based data and chat workflows: Dify, LitLytics, n8n, Open WebUI Pipelines, FloWise, LangFlow | harbor up dify |
| Chat from the phone | You can access Harbor services from your phone with a QR code. Easily get links for local, LAN or Docker access. | harbor qr, harbor url |
| Chat from anywhere | Harbor includes a built-in tunneling service to expose your Harbor to the internet. | harbor tunnel |
| LLM Scripting | Harbor Boost allows you to easily script workflows and interactions with downstream LLMs. | harbor up boost |
| Config Profiles | Save and manage configuration profiles for different scenarios. For example - save llama.cpp args for different models and contexts and switch between them easily. | harbor profile, Harbor App |
| Command History | Harbor keeps a local-only history of recent commands. Look up and re-run easily, standalone from the system shell history. | harbor history |
| Eject | Ready to move to your own setup? Harbor will give you a docker-compose file replicating your setup. | harbor eject |
| Harbor includes a lot more services and features. Check the Documentation links below. |

In the demo, Harbor App is used to launch a default stack with Ollama and Open WebUI services. Later, SearXNG is also started, and WebUI can connect to it for the Web RAG right out of the box. After that, Harbor Boost is also started and connected to the WebUI automatically to induce more creative outputs. As a final step, Harbor config is adjusted in the App for the klmbr module in the Harbor Boost, which makes the output unparsable for the LLM (yet still undetstandable for humans).

- If you're comfortable with Docker and Linux administration - you likely don't need Harbor to manage your local LLM environment. However, while growing it - you're also likely to eventually arrive to a similar solution. I know this for a fact, since that's exactly how Harbor came to be.
- Harbor is not designed as a deployment solution, but rather as a helper for the local LLM development environment. It's a good starting point for experimenting with LLMs and related services.
- Workflow/setup centralisation - you can be sure where to find a specific config or service, logs, data and configuration files.
- Convenience factor - single CLI with a lot of services and features, accessible from anywhere on your host.
