This exakt name is already used by a big open-source projekt, https://github.com/eugeny/tabby (50k stars) maybe consider changing the name for better SEO

Questions
How does it compare to FauxPilot?
From 2 comments
How does this compare to fauxpilot - https://github.com/fauxpilot/fauxpilot? Fauxpilot also uses Triton with fastertransformers and GPT-J style models (codegen).
