Kandalf: request for review

[J. Varela]

Does it have to start with a K?

What does this app do? I would try to name it based on what it does.

I see that it is used to interact with a LLM named llama.

I think it shouldn't have a name that starts with K, and that it should be
named something related to llama, the large language model.

- The llamas are heavily used in the Andes mountains.
- They can carry(be saddled with) heavy loads(... lots of data?).
- They make good guard animals against coyotes and other canine predators.
- Related to the camel.
- They spit

I was thinking of maybe something to do with llama herding. Since the user
will be using this to manage their LLMs that are llama based.

Also here is another term for llama:

"Llama is the Quechua term for L. glama, which is known as qawra by Aymara
speakers. "

Maybe kognos means llama herding in another language. I couldn't find
anything though.

A herd of llamas is called a cria herd.

Maybe name it Cria. (I don't get the obsession with the k).

Anyways those are my thoughts.

Good luck!

thanks!
