# CrestApps.Core Ollama - Prompt Templates

## Add Ollama Support

You are a CrestApps.Core expert. Generate code and configuration for using local Ollama models with CrestApps.Core.

### Guidelines

- Use Ollama for local development, offline work, and privacy-sensitive scenarios.
- Expect capability differences to be model-dependent.
- Keep the local endpoint on the connection.
- Keep the selected model name on the deployment.

### Builder Registration

```csharp
builder.Services.AddCrestAppsCore(crestApps => crestApps
    .AddAISuite(ai => ai
        .AddOllama()
    )
);
```
