I DONT GAF ABOUT THE WEIGHTS AND SAFETENSORS! I just wan to download the damn .exe and run it make no mistake.

WHY IS THERE CODE AND WTH IS THE SAFETENZORS??? WE HAVE GPT AND CLAU JUST GIVE US A CHAT BOX. It seems like these platforms think everyone has an 8x H200 cluster running in their bedroom and understands how to shard 500B parameters. well i am not and i dont understand it!

Regular users are not machine learning engineers and do not understand it. People only know how to type into a prompt and hit enter. SO WHY IS THERE RAW CODE? Make a website or sth and let people use it. Absolute nonsense.

Yeah, bro, there is. Just put your API into CC Switch, and your Claude code will be successfully possessed.
