Maximus grows to 57 — your local model isn't reading the manual
Five skills for running Maximus on open-source local models: OpenClaw on Ollama, Ollama operations, reliable tool calling from small models, evaluation on your own tasks, and local fine-tuning. The finding behind them: on most consumer machines, the default setup silently cut off most of Maximus's own prompt. Suite now at 57 skills.
Maximus grows to 51 — hallucination is usually an architecture bug
Two skills for small local models: maximus-slm-local-stack for hardware, KV-cache VRAM math, quantization and runtime, and maximus-local-research-assistant for grounded local RAG with a refusal contract, span citations, and verification. The premise: “it makes things up” is usually an architecture bug, not a model bug. Suite now at 51 skills.
Two Kimi K3 skills join Maximus
maximus-k3-model-selection and maximus-k3-self-hosting — pick the right frontier model when K3 is on the shortlist, and run K3 on your own GPUs (or honestly decide not to).
