curl -LsSf https://llama.app/install.sh | sh
# Windows
irm https://llama.app/install.ps1 | iex
```
2. Run Olmo 3 32B Think (Q4_K_M, needs ~19.5 GB, from [huggingface.co/lmstudio-community](https://huggingface.co/lmstudio-community/Olmo-3-32B-Think-GGUF/tree/6721e7e5fca656d696d4a1a8cc654c2bbada294b))
```sh
llama cli -hf lmstudio-community/Olmo-3-32B-Think-GGUF:Q4_K_M
```
3. Or start a local server and open the address it prints (http://localhost:9931)
```sh
llama serve -hf lmstudio-community/Olmo-3-32B-Think-GGUF:Q4_K_M
```
Other versions: Q8_0 (~34.3 GB) `llama cli -hf lmstudio-community/Olmo-3-32B-Think-GGUF:Q8_0`
### LM Studio
1. Install LM Studio. Open the app once before using the lms command. [Download it (macOS / Windows / Linux)](https://lmstudio.ai/download)
2. Run Olmo 3 32B Think (Q4_K_M, needs ~19.5 GB, from [huggingface.co/lmstudio-community](https://huggingface.co/lmstudio-community/Olmo-3-32B-Think-GGUF/tree/6721e7e5fca656d696d4a1a8cc654c2bbada294b))
```sh
lms get https://huggingface.co/lmstudio-community/Olmo-3-32B-Think-GGUF@Q4_K_M -y
```
3. Then run lms ls to see its name, and lms chat followed by that name
