Use one local OpenAI-compatible endpoint for eligible free LLM tiers. Ficelle handles failover and blocks paid fallback in code. Python 3.11+ CLI and local service with an admin dashboard. Inference runs at upstream providers and their quotas still apply. Core is source-available under BUSL-1.1, with optional Pro.
