Redditor Cherlokoms reports that macOS 27 exposes Apple's Foundation Models locally through the native `fm chat` command, potentially making on-device inference accessible directly from a Mac terminal.

Redditor TigerKR claims macOS 27's bundled fm CLI lets coding agents like Claude Code offload bulk summarization of transcripts, logs, and long documents to Apple's on-device Foundation Model, cutting cloud token costs with zero data egress; whether other builders fold the local-preprocessing-offload pattern into their agents and skills — or it stays a one-off post about an undocumented tool — resolves whether Apple's on-device model becomes a standard token-cost preprocessing layer for coding agents.
