Fake website thread
Here is a post with the current fake websites we know about:
kobold-ai,com: Redirects to a chatbot site called CrushOn that nobody should use, they are notorious for putting up fake websites.
koboldcpp,com: Contains inaccurate information about KoboldCpp and has a fake KoboldCpp download that at the time of writing is a copy of older source code (That may or may not also include malware or altered files) and outright malicious downloads / ads if you don't have adblock.
koboldcpp,org: At the time of writing another site with inaccurate information that currently links to the wrong download.
koboldcpp,store: Site with wrong information that pretends we are a google play app (We don't have one). Currently the link to the play store app is hallucinated by AI but if you notice someone place a malicious app there please let us know.
Our real websites:
koboldai.com - Our website for information about KoboldAI and its software. We could use help maintaining it, if you'd like to help contribute to GitHub - henk717/koboldai.com: KoboldAI Website · GitHub
koboldai.net - This domain is used for online instances of things, such as KoboldAI Lite (lite.koboldai.net) or community affiliated forks such as esolite.koboldai.net
koboldai.org - Our URL shortlink domain, for example https://koboldai.org/cpp for KoboldCpp downloads, https://koboldai.org/discord for our Discord community and https://koboldai.org/colab for the KoboldCpp colab.
Domains we own (to prevent scam domains) but don't currently use:
Honorable Mention
kobold.ai - German company with the same name as us. We both started our efforts around the same time and I don't think either one was aware of each other at the time. While they are the only non-malicious one they have nothing to do with us and serve an entirely different purpose.

Total Beginner looking to run uncensored model locally (text only)
Hardware RTX 4080 16GB, 64GB DDR5 Ram
Could anybody recommend me a model that you think would be appropriate, and any beginner friendly setup guides to get it up and running? I've played around with kobold lite on huggingface's browser UI and liked it but don't really know where to start doing it myself.
Thanks!

Anyone having issues with remote tunneling not working with JanitorAI and ChubAI?
I had to do an OS reinstall a few weeks ago, with a fresh install of Linux and Windows 10. I've noticed that once I got a remote tunnel going on either OS, both ChubAI and JanitorAI can not connect to them, and both sites give off network errors. I was wondering if anyone else had this issue or might know what is causing it. I wasn't having this issue on Windows 10 before it was wiped.

Help with local tunneling, or something similar.
Well, I don't know where to begin. I really like Kobold, but I can't use horde.ai anymore (it's not that I literally can't use it, it's more that the responses it's giving are very bad. Lately, but I think it's just bad luck on my part). However, I have a PC (terribly located and I can't move it from there) and it's decent, so I can run very good AI programs on it. That's why I want to use a tunnel or something to be able to use Kobold on my Android. However, Tryclaud is awful and ngrok scares me a bit. And these ipconfig solutions seem much more frightening. (I don't know much about computers and programming. I even have an acquaintance who knows, but he's very unreliable and very judgmental).
So I'm left with no choice but to ask the old wizards here for help.

Img Button and Generation Troubleshooting
Hey folks!
Ran into an issue that I can't seem to find the troubleshooting steps for and can't figure out myself, but I was hoping your collective minds might be able to catch what I'm missing.
I went through the setup and have tried to use the V2 starter pack and other packs, but no matter what settings I try or what image gen gguf I use, the img button doesn't appear, the /img command does not work, and image generation as a whole is inaccessible to me.
12GB VRAM, GeForce RTX 3060
I've run the text models of Qwen3 VL 8B, Ministral 3B, and other mid-range models without issue, I think this one is purely user error.

I'm so confuse and used to using colab koboldcpp version.
I've been using the koboldcpp colab unofficial for some time now. It's a simple process but I want to go the next level which is adding ai audio from the text speeches it makes. I'm trying to figure out how to do that, but there's no clear simple video to do it.

New github scam abusing KoboldCpp
Reminder just in case, there has been a bot campaign generating fake github accounts with detailed information going to fake github pages for KoboldCpp with malware called CrypterBot DLL sideload kit.
Were reporting the ones we notice to github to get this cleaned up.
Our REAL repository is https://github.com/lostruins/koboldcpp and you can always use https://koboldai.org/cpp to get to the releases directly.
These fakes generally do not have a repository and do not have actual source code, they just link to downloads.
Of course there are trusted forks out there to, if you need us to ever validate if something is a legitimate fork or a malware campaign impersonating our project feel free to reach out.

Minimax3 in runpod or other provide and kccp
Hello, Has anyone run Minimax3 or any other video models on Koboldcpp in Runpod or other such provider. Am not sure my computer could manage video generation. Thus I'm looking for ways to do it online. I'm asking about video generation with sound, because specific sfx generating models are not available unfortunately. Or I haven't found support for them in koboldcpp.

Music Support
Do I understand the situation correctly that only ACE-Step music generation is supported but stuff like the newer (and much better) YuE2 is not supported?
If yes, is there any plan to add support for other music models too?

Is there any local model for research?
I am beginner in local models, but i am looking for a model can do a research about almost anything.
My specs are r7 3700x ,ddr4 32gb, 5060ti 16gb.
I dont care about speed because most of the time i will give it a prompt and go to sleep or do something.
I dont know if the best practice is to look for a model good for coding and let it do a research about coding OR just let the model for research do the research for anything i want.
I know how to use openwebui and hermes-agent, if there is a better tools for this goal tell me please.

References?
I'm trying to write stories on KoboldAI, but the responses to each prompt I put in doesn't quite match what I want. I'm considering adding references for the AI to make the story how I want, but I don't know if that is even possible. Is it possible to add a reference story for how I want my work to go, or a reference picture for how I want a character to look? And if so, how do I input it?

Any idea what AI Bernardo Kastrup is talking about. I find it really interesting, but he is extremely vague.

Have you tried z-image (base)?
I.e. https://huggingface.co/leejet/Z-Image-GGUF/tree/main
I am trying to use Q4 but get empty images, whereas with same vae+clip1 Turbo version (IIRC from leejet too) produces what looks like relevant to prompt images. In preview mode latent space of Base starts with black square and remains so for many steps, whereas for Turbo already 1st preview shows some sketch of the image to come.
Actually Base did produce several images, but then after PC restart - black squares again with IIRC same settings.
P.S. Turbo often produces blurry images, I am disappointed, why? I use 8 steps for Turbo as I have read somewhere.
kcpp 1.120, linux.
