Coding Assistants
Sprint priority 1. Using Lyceum inside the tools people already work in: coding assistants (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and any client that accepts a custom OpenAI-compatible endpoint) and office plugins such as PowerPoint AI add-ins. Activation content: point the tool at an EU-hosted endpoint.

Testing Open Coding Models on Multi-File Agentic Edits
Test coding models on representative changes from your own repository. Use task-specific acceptance tests, regression checks and recorded costs for every attempt, including failures.

Piloting an Open-Model Coding Assistant Without Infrastructure
A credible pilot of an open-model coding assistant needs an endpoint, not a GPU: point Aider, Cline, Continue or Roo Code at a hosted OpenAI-compatible endpoint, agree criteria and a control first, and let per-token metering produce the evidence.

Roo Code OpenAI Compatible Provider: Lyceum Model Setup
This guide runs each Roo Code mode on an open-weight model from Lyceum Serverless Inference, chosen for that mode's job: one base URL and one key, a profile per mode, limits set by hand, and a tool-calling check before real work.

Using Lyceum Models in opencode: Custom Provider Setup
opencode supports custom OpenAI-compatible endpoints via its provider configuration. Pointing it at a European serverless inference endpoint lets developers use frontier open-weight models directly in the terminal, cutting token costs while keeping codebase data inside the EU.

Empty Response on a Reasoning Model: Why and How to Fix It
A blank reply can result from an output limit, a client integration problem or a response that needs further handling. Inspect the complete response before changing settings. Reasoning text alone is not a final answer.

How to Use Lyceum Models in Cursor
Connect Cursor to Lyceum through its OpenAI-compatible endpoint, then test the model in Ask/chat. Agent support depends on the provider, model and client version. This guide separates the documented setup from features that still need validation.

What a Works Council and DPO Ask Before an AI Coding Tool Ships
Before an AI coding tool ships, IT compliance, Data Protection Officers, and Works Councils must approve the deployment. Here is exactly what they ask about pattern learning, employee monitoring, and data residency, and how to build an approval package that satisfies them.

Verify Coding Agent Function Calling Before Switching
When migrating an AI coding agent to a sovereign inference engine, ensuring OpenAI-compatible function calling is critical. Learn how to test tool calling support on open-weight models to avoid broken workflows.

Self-Hosting Code Completion for VS Code and JetBrains
Transitioning from closed ecosystems to a VS Code open source code completion model guarantees data sovereignty for European engineering teams. By pairing a local IDE extension with an EU-hosted serverless inference endpoint, developers achieve low-latency coding assistance.
