Describes where inference actually runs.

Variants

Local

Quantized local model (llama.cpp WASM / ONNX Runtime / WebLLM + WebGPU). This is the PREFERRED backend — no outbound traffic.

Fields

model_path: String

context_window: u32

quantization: String

vision_projector_path: Option<String>

Path to mmproj / vision projector GGUF when modality is multimodal.

modality: String

text or multimodal

architecture: Option<String>

Architecture hint: llava, qwen2vl, smolvlm, gemma3, etc.

Remote

Remote model call. REQUIRES:

• Explicit Principal consent (signed VC)
• Nym mixnet routing (no raw IP correlation)
• ILP micropayment for every call
• Full audit trail written to .q42

Fields

endpoint_did: String

nym_gateway: String

ilp_budget_micro_cents: u64

Hybrid

Local first; falls back to Remote only with Principal consent.

Fields

local_model_path: String

remote_endpoint_did: String

consent_required: bool

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for AgentBackend

fn clone(&self) -> AgentBackend

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for AgentBackend

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl<'de> Deserialize<'de> for AgentBackend

fn deserialize<__D>(__deserializer: __D) -> Result<Self, __D::Error>

where __D: Deserializer<'de>,

Deserialize this value from the given Serde deserializer.

impl PartialEq for AgentBackend

fn eq(&self, other: &AgentBackend) -> bool

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.

impl Serialize for AgentBackend

fn serialize<__S>(&self, __serializer: __S) -> Result<__S::Ok, __S::Error>

where __S: Serializer,

Serialize this value into the given Serde serializer.
