Ollama

Models running in Ollama on your local machine work great with Promptscape, because they can be used free and offline! They are a great place to start.

You Will Need

  1. Ollama installed
  2. A model downloaded and running in Ollama, such as Llama3.3 (ollama run llama3.3)

Adding an Ollama model

  1. Run the command Promptscape: Create a Model
  2. When prompted to choose a provider, choose 'ollama'
  3. The next prompt will ask for the model name. This is the same model name you use when you run a model in ollama. For example, for llama3.3, the ollama command is ollama run llama3.3, and llama3.3 is the model name you should use here.
  4. Next, you'll be asked for the hostname. If you didn't configure a custom Ollama host when you ran your model, just leave this blank, and Promptscape will use the default localhost port.
  5. Finally, enter a memorable & descriptive nickname for your model.

If you have completed all the steps, you'll find your model in the Explorer. Click it once to activate it.
