Running Google Gemma 4 Locally With LM Studio’s New Headless CLI & Claude Code

LM Studio 0.4.0 introduced llmster and the lms CLI. Here is how I set up Gemma 4 26B for local inference on macOS that can be used with Claude Code.

Using Claude Code seems like a popular frontend currently, I wonder how long until Anthropic releases an update to make it a little to a lot less turn-key? They've been very clear that they aren't exactly champions of this stuff being used outside of very specific ways.
I think CC is popular because they are catering to the common denominator programmer and are going to continue to do that, not because CC is particularly turn-key.
