    Hey! One of the maintainers of Ollama. 8GB of VRAM is a bit tight for coding agents since their prompts are quite large. You could try playing with qwen3 and at least 16k context l…

    How much ram are you running with? Qwen3 and gpt-oss:20b punch a good bit above their weight. Personally use it for small agents.

    Since we shipped web search with gpt-oss in the Ollama app I've personally been using that a lot more especially for research heavy tasks that I can shoot off. Plus with a 5090 or …

    Hi - author of the post. Yes it does! The "build a search agent" example can be used with a local model. I'd recommend trying qwen3 or gpt-oss

    Hey! Author of the blogpost and I also work on Ollama's tool calling. There has been a big push on tool calling over the last year to improve the parsing. What's the issues you're …

    That's a great idea. Going to try this next :)

    Hey! I'm the author of the post. We haven't optimized sampling yet so it's running linearly on the CPU. A lot of SOTA work either does this while the model is running the forward p…

    Thank you! Maybe not "perfect" but near-perfect is something we can expect. Models like the Osmosis structure which just structure data inspired some of that thinking ( https://oll…

    Thanks for posting! Didn't expect this to get picked up – it was a bit of a draft haha. Happy to answer questions around structured outputs :)

    Yes! I have checked guidance out, as well as a few others. Planning to refactor sampling in the near future which would include improving using grammars for sampling as well. Thank…

    The constraints will always be met. It’s the data inside that might be inaccurate. YMMV with smaller models in that sense.

    Hey! Author of the blog here. The current implementation uses llama.cpp GBNF which has allowed for a quick implementation. The biggest value-add at this time was getting the featur…

    Hey! Author of the post and one of the maintainers here. I agree - we (maintainers) got to this late and in general want to encourage more contributions. Hoping to be more on top o…

    We’ve been keeping a close eye on this as well as research is coming out. We’re looking into improving sampling as a whole on both speed and accuracy. Hopefully with those changes …

    Hey! Author of the blog post here. Yes you should be able to use any model. Your mileage may vary with the smaller models but asking them to “return x in json” tends to help with a…
