# Llamactl Documentation
Welcome to the Llamactl documentation! **Management server and proxy for multiple llama.cpp and MLX instances with OpenAI-compatible API routing.**

## What is Llamactl?
Llamactl is designed to simplify the deployment and management of llama-server and MLX instances. It provides a modern solution for running multiple large language models with centralized management and multi-backend support.
## Features
🚀 **Multiple Model Serving**: Run different models simultaneously (7B for speed, 70B for quality)
🔗 **OpenAI API Compatible**: Drop-in replacement - route requests by model name
🍎 **Multi-Backend Support**: Native support for both llama.cpp and MLX (Apple Silicon optimized)
🌐 **Web Dashboard**: Modern React UI for visual management (unlike CLI-only tools)
🔐 **API Key Authentication**: Separate keys for management vs inference access
📊 **Instance Monitoring**: Health checks, auto-restart, log management
**Smart Resource Management**: Idle timeout, LRU eviction, and configurable instance limits
💡 **On-Demand Instance Start**: Automatically launch instances upon receiving OpenAI-compatible API requests
💾 **State Persistence**: Ensure instances remain intact across server restarts
