Feat: Local LLM Support + Auto Mode + Dev Server

[LaansDole]

1. Local LLM Support

• Built-in Local Agent (src/localAgent.ts): Standalone Node.js script that talks directly to any OpenAI-compatible endpoint using the openai npm package
• VS Code Settings: New configuration options under pixel-agents.local.*:
  • enabled - Toggle local mode
  • baseUrl - Endpoint URL (e.g., http://localhost:1234/v1)
  • apiKey - API key for the endpoint
  • model - Model name to use
  • maxTokens - Max tokens per response (512-4096)
• Environment Configuration (.env.example): Template for dev server configuration

2. Auto Mode (Multi-Agent Debates)

• Persona Templates: 8 distinct AI personas (Pragmatist, Innovator, Skeptic, Architect, Operator, Minimalist, Researcher, Shipper)
• Walk-to-Agent Interaction: Characters physically walk to the responding agent during debates
• Termination Detection: [DONE] keyword to end debates
• UI Components:
  • AutoModeConfigDialog.tsx - Configure agent count, topic, timeout
  • ConversationPanel.tsx - Live conversation view
  • AgentInfoPanel.tsx - Agent status display

3. Dev Server (webview-ui/devServer.ts)

• WebSocket bridge for standalone webview development
• Spawns localAgent.js processes
• JSONL transcript polling and event forwarding
• Auto mode orchestration

4. Build Tools (Makefile)

• make dev - Start both dev server and Vite
• make stop - Kill all servers
• make restart / make status / make clean

Documentation Updates

• README.md: Added Local Models section with Option A (Direct Connection) and Option B (Built-in Local Agent)

Hi @gaby, here are the screenshots of the implementations. Let me know if you have any questions

@LaansDole What happened to the original layout, colors, and graphics? This version doesn't look as polished.

@gaby It is the original layout, colors and graphics. Maybe because I did not buy the UI kit? But I did not change any layouts, I only focus on the logic enhancement

Makes sense!
