IIP-052: Local model runtime authority

IIP-052 Roadmap Record

IIP-052: Local model runtime authority is an IOI roadmap implementation record for the IOI Runtime surface. It is marked Active in Q2 2026 and belongs to the Runtime Substrate track. The canonical scope is: LM Studio/Ollama discovery, model artifact catalog, load estimates, load/unload/remount, daemon endpoints/routes, workflow binding, and invocation receipts.

Surface Context

This IIP should be read as part of the IOI Runtime roadmap, not as a replacement for source papers or product pages. The parent surface gives the broader context for why this milestone exists, what it depends on, and which IOI surfaces it supports. IIP-052 depends on the protocol surface before it can fully mature. It unblocks later roadmap surfaces: authority-gateway, hypervisor.

• IOI Runtime

Evidence And Verification

The record is designed to make roadmap evidence crawlable and separable from research claims. No item-level dependencies are listed for this record. Evidence links below point to the paper, release, repository, developer documentation, or product page that supports this milestone.

• Runtime daemon package
• ioi-workbench extension

Canonical Relationship

This page is the canonical implementation record for IIP-052, while the parent roadmap surface and linked research pages remain the canonical sources for broader product and protocol context. Internal links point here when the milestone status, phase, dependencies, or evidence trail for Local model runtime authority matters.

Roadmap Role

IIP-052 exists to clarify roadmap status, implementation scope, and evidence relationships. Technical concepts flow through this page to canonical research pages, while product or runtime context flows to the relevant surface page. This preserves a complete implementation trail without making roadmap records compete with deeper IOI papers.
