Description

#18 introduced Ollama support

How exactly is this supposed to work? Seems broken to me.
image

having ollama configured I don't get what the model id is supposed to be and searching does not work.

gemma3:4b is the model id but all variations i've tried just get an error.

Model test failed: CompletionError: ProviderError: unknown provider: ollama

or

Model 'gemma3:4b' does not match provider 'ollama'.

Research direction

Start with the web GUI configuration and Model test flow, reproducing the failure with Ollama and the gemma3:4b model ID. Trace how the configured provider and model ID are resolved, then verify that searching and model testing recognize Ollama without either reported error.
