Why run WorkDaddy agents on LMStudio in 2026
Tool calling, context size, and cost decide how well a provider drives an agent team. LMStudio brings 3 tool-calling models to WorkDaddy — enough to power the full loop of storefront edits, analytics queries, and content production — with 262K tokens of context at the top end for whole-codebase and long-report work.
