lms server start Reference

The lms server start command launches the LM Studio local server, allowing you to interact with loaded models via HTTP API calls.

--port (optional) : number

Port to run the server on. If not provided, uses the last used port

--cors (optional) : flag

Enable CORS support for web application development. When not set, CORS is disabled

Start the server

Start the server with default settings:

lms server start

Run the server on a specific port:

lms server start --port 3000

For usage with web applications or some VS Code extensions, you may need to enable CORS support:

lms server start --cors

Note that enabling CORS may expose your server to security risks, so use it only when necessary.

See lms server status for more information on checking the status of the server.
