Server Configuration

Describes the environment variables required to run the server.

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
HOUTINI_LM_MODELNoPin the model to use, because on a big catalogue every unknown model scores the same in routing and the first listed wins. Required in practice for OpenAI, which lists dozens of models that all score the same (e.g. gpt-5.2).
HOUTINI_LM_API_KEYNoAPI key for the endpoint, if it needs one (e.g. sk-... for OpenAI). Not required for a local LM Studio instance.
HOUTINI_LM_THINKINGNoControls thinking for models that support the toggle. 'auto' (default) switches thinking off for detected thinking models, 'off' forces thinking off on every call (needed when a backend serves a thinking model under a name detection can't recognise), and 'on' forces thinking on, which is worth it for bug-hunting or checking an argument, at the cost of time and tokens.
HOUTINI_LM_SERIALISENoSet to 0 to turn off request serialisation. Calls are queued one at a time by default, because a single GPU can only serve one request anyway; disable this for OpenAI, a router or a batching backend like vLLM (e.g. HOUTINI_LM_SERIALISE=0).
HOUTINI_LM_MIN_TOKENSNoMinimum output budget. MCP clients habitually pass tiny caps like 256 that strangle reasoning models mid-thought, so anything under 4,096 is ignored unless you set HOUTINI_LM_MIN_TOKENS=0 to disable the floor.
HOUTINI_LM_STRUCTUREDNoSet to 1 and each inference result also carries a structuredContent block (the answer, model, tokens, timing, quality flags) to read as JSON. Leave it off for Claude Code, which shows the model only that block when it's present.
HOUTINI_LM_ENDPOINT_URLNoURL of the OpenAI-compatible endpoint to delegate to (LM Studio, Ollama, vLLM, SGLang, LiteLLM router, OpenRouter, OpenAI, DeepSeek, Groq, etc.). LM Studio listens on localhost:1234 by default, which is where houtini-lm looks first, so this is only needed when the endpoint is elsewhere (e.g. http://192.168.1.50:1234 or https://api.openai.com).

Instructions

Guidance the server publishes about itself, which clients place ahead of the tool catalog so the model reads it before choosing anything.
