Local LLM Ops (Ollama)

Overview

Your
localLLM
repo provides a full local LLM toolchain on Apple Silicon: setup scripts, a rich CLI chat launcher, benchmarks, and diagnostics. The operational path is: install Ollama, ensure the service is running, initialize the venv, pull models, then launch chat or benchmarks.

Quick Start

bash
./setup_chatbot.sh
./chatllm
If no models are present:
bash
ollama pull mistral

Setup Checklist

  1. Install Ollama:
    brew install ollama
  2. Start the service:
    brew services start ollama
  3. Run setup:
    ./setup_chatbot.sh
  4. Verify service:
    curl http://localhost:11434/api/version

Chat Launchers

  • ./chatllm
    (primary launcher)
  • ./chat
    or
    ./chat.py
    (alternate launchers)
  • Aliases:
    ./install_aliases.sh
    then
    llm
    ,
    llm-code
    ,
    llm-fast
Task modes:
bash
./chat -t coding -m codellama:70b
./chat -t creative -m llama3.1:70b
./chat -t analytical

Benchmark Workflow

Benchmarks are scripted in
scripts/run_benchmarks.sh
:
bash
./scripts/run_benchmarks.sh
This runs
bench_ollama.py
with:
  • benchmarks/prompts.yaml
  • benchmarks/models.yaml
  • Multiple runs and max token limits

Diagnostics

Run the built-in diagnostic script when setup fails:
bash
./diagnose.sh
Common fixes:
  • Re-run
    ./setup_chatbot.sh
  • Ensure
    ollama
    is in PATH
  • Pull at least one model:
    ollama pull mistral

Operational Notes

  • Virtualenv lives in
    .venv
  • Chat configs and sessions live under
    ~/.localllm/
  • Ollama API runs at
    http://localhost:11434
