Hello everyone,

I’m trying to setup a local “vibe coding” environment and use it on some projects I abandoned years ago. So far I’m using KoboldCPP to run the models, VSStudio as editor with various extensions and models with limited to no luck.

Models are working properly (tested with KoboldCPP web UI and curl) but in VSCode they do not generate files. edit existing files etc. (it seems that the tool calling part is not working) and they usually go in a loop

I tried the following extensions:

• RooCode
• Cline

Models: (mostly from Unsloth)

• Deepseek-coder:6.7
• Phi4
• Qwen3-Coder 30
• Granite4 Small

Does anyone have any idea why it’s not working or have a working setup that can share? (I’m open to change any of the tools/models)

I have 16GB of RAM and 8GB of VRAM as a reference

Many thanks in advance for your help!
