Ollama Agent (prototype)

This prototype VS Code extension demonstrates connecting to a locally running Ollama server and handling model "tool_calls" to perform workspace actions.

Features in this prototype:

• Connects to local Ollama HTTP API at http://localhost:11434

• Sends chat requests and reads tool_calls from the model response

• Implements handlers for tools: read_file, write_file, delete_file, run_shell

• For actions that modify the workspace or run shell commands, the extension requires a manual approval step via a file-creation command in the workspace terminal. Example:

  mkdir -p .ollama-agent/approvals && echo "" > .ollama-agent/approvals/.approve

Replace with the token shown in the extension output.

How to run:

1. Open this folder in VS Code.
2. Install dev dependencies: npm install
3. Compile: npm run compile
4. Press F5 to run the extension in the Extension Development Host.
5. Run the command: "Agent: Start Session" from the Command Palette.

Notes:

• This is a security-sensitive prototype. Do not enable automatic destructive actions without stricter safeguards.
• The approval-by-file mechanism is intentionally simple and visible to the user.
