contents We describe the implementation details of periodic local coupled-cluster theory with single and double excitations (CCSD) and perturbative triple excitations [CCSD(T)] using local natural orbitals (LNOs) and $k$-point symmetry. We discuss and compare several choices for orbital localization, fragmentation, and LNO construction. By studying diamond and lithium, we demonstrate that periodic LNO-CC theory can be applied with equal success to both insulators and metals, achieving speedups of two to three orders of magnitude even for moderately sized $k$-point meshes. Our final predictions of the equilibrium cohesive energy, lattice constant, and bulk modulus for diamond and lithium are in good agreement with previous theoretical predictions and experimental results.
