MCP.Pizza Chef: nicedreamzapp

This tool turns a Mac with an Apple Silicon chip into its own private AI engine for coding, so Claude Code can keep working even without an internet connection or a paid subscription. It runs entirely on your computer, so nobody outside your machine ever sees your code, client files, or confidential documents. It's built with law firms, healthcare teams, and other businesses that handle sensitive material in mind, but any developer working with Claude Code can use it to code fully offline. Setup involves downloading and running the project yourself, so some technical comfort is required.

claude-code-local FAQ

Do I need an internet connection to use this?
No — once it's set up, the whole thing runs on your Mac's own chip, so it works completely offline, even with Wi-Fi turned off.
Do I need to pay for a subscription or sign up for a paid account?
No ongoing subscription is required, and you don't need a paid account with OpenAI, Google Gemini, or Anthropic's cloud service. The Claude Code app does expect a certain security value to be filled in during setup, but you can use a placeholder there since everything runs on your own computer instead of over the internet.
Which apps does this work with?
It's built specifically to work with Claude Code, the AI coding assistant. The same setup also lets you control a web browser and run hands-free voice sessions.
Is this easy to set up, or do I need to be a programmer?
This one leans technical. You'll need an Apple Silicon Mac (an M-series chip) with a good amount of memory, and you'll be downloading and running the project yourself rather than clicking a single install button.
Can I use this to keep sensitive documents, like NDAs or medical records, private?
Yes — because everything runs locally on your own Mac, none of your files or conversations are sent to an outside company, which is why it's designed with law firms, healthcare teams, and other privacy-sensitive work in mind.
Can I use this to code while I'm on a plane or somewhere without Wi-Fi?
Yes — since the AI model runs on your Mac itself rather than in the cloud, you can keep coding with Claude Code with no internet connection at all.
How much memory does my Mac need?
It depends on which AI model you choose. The lightest option needs around 32 GB of memory, while the largest and most capable one needs around 128 GB.
Can I use this from my phone instead of my Mac?
Yes — if your Mac is set up as the AI engine at home, you can reach it and chat with it from a browser on your phone.
