## Summary

Latent Space describes running the OpenCode coding agent with Qwen3.5 9B through Ollama on a laptop with the internet switched off. The author notes that tasks needing new packages or web lookups still require a connection, and that published Qwen3.5 9B scores are LiveCodeBench v6 65.6 and BFCL-V4 66.1.
