Running opencode inside openshell on Fedora 44 with llama-cpp

Tue, 23 Jun 2026 20:00:00 +0200

For quite some time I wanted to explore openshell. I naively thought it would be easy to set up on my workstation that has an AMD GPU, together with llama-cpp as an inference server.

After following the tutorial, I was immediately stuck even with running the gateway in a podman container.

I guess I’m too old for this stuff because I let Claude Code to investigate the problems.

Ansible and Podman Can Play Together Now

Thu, 01 Nov 2018 20:49:23 +0100

Sam Doran just merged my pull request which introduces a new connection plugin for podman. If you are not sure what an Ansible connection plugin is, hold tight and I’ll show you.

The connection plugin is the component which enables Ansible to execute commands in a target environment: you are probably mostly familiar with these two:

ssh — managing remote machines
local — executing a playbook in the current environment

Since Ansible abstracts this mechanic very well, you can easily write connection plugins for such a thing as container managers. Ansible has one for docker and some time ago I wrote one for buildah. I concluded it’s time to write it for podman as well, finally (so I can utilize it in ansible-bender).
