Implementation Complete

Summary of Changes

Your CodeCompanion configuration has been successfully updated to support Ollama with Tailscale network access.

What Was Changed

1. Modified File

lua/shelbybark/plugins/codecompanion.lua

  • Added Ollama adapter (lines 30-45)
  • Configured environment variable support
  • Added Ollama keymaps <leader>cll (lines 223-237)

2. Created Documentation (7 files)

  • README_OLLAMA_INTEGRATION.md - Main overview
  • docs/OLLAMA_SETUP.md - Comprehensive setup guide
  • docs/OLLAMA_QUICK_SETUP.md - Quick reference for other machines
  • docs/ARCHITECTURE.md - Network architecture diagrams
  • docs/TROUBLESHOOTING.md - Common issues and solutions
  • docs/IMPLEMENTATION_CHECKLIST.md - Step-by-step checklist
  • docs/QUICK_REFERENCE.md - Quick reference card
  • docs/ollama_env_example.sh - Shell configuration example

How It Works

Local Access (Main Machine)

nvim
# Press <leader>cll
# Connects to http://localhost:11434 automatically

Remote Access (Other Machines)

export OLLAMA_ENDPOINT="http://100.123.45.67:11434"
nvim
# Press <leader>cll
# Connects via Tailscale to your Ollama server

Key Features

Environment-Based: Reads OLLAMA_ENDPOINT environment variable Fallback Support: Defaults to localhost if env var not set Easy Switching: Use <leader>cll to chat with Ollama Network-Aware: Works locally and remotely Secure: All traffic encrypted via Tailscale No Code Changes: Just set an environment variable on other machines

Configuration Details

Ollama Adapter

  • Location: lua/shelbybark/plugins/codecompanion.lua (lines 30-45)
  • Default Model: mistral (7B, fast and capable)
  • Endpoint: Reads from OLLAMA_ENDPOINT env var
  • Fallback: http://localhost:11434

Keymaps

  • <leader>cll - Chat with Ollama (normal and visual modes)
  • <leader>cc - Chat with Claude Haiku (existing)
  • <leader>cs - Chat with Claude Sonnet (existing)
  • <leader>co - Chat with Claude Opus (existing)

Next Steps

1. On Your Ollama Server Machine

# Ensure Ollama listens on all interfaces
sudo systemctl edit ollama
# Add: Environment="OLLAMA_HOST=0.0.0.0:11434"
# Save and exit
sudo systemctl restart ollama

# Pull a model
ollama pull mistral

# Find your Tailscale IP
tailscale ip -4
# Note this down (e.g., 100.123.45.67)

# Test it works
curl http://localhost:11434/api/tags

2. On Other Machines

# Add to ~/.zshrc, ~/.bashrc, or ~/.config/fish/config.fish
export OLLAMA_ENDPOINT="http://100.123.45.67:11434"

# Reload shell
source ~/.zshrc  # or ~/.bashrc

# Test connection
curl $OLLAMA_ENDPOINT/api/tags

# Start Neovim and press <leader>cll
nvim

3. Test in Neovim

" Press <leader>cll to open Ollama chat
" Type a message and press Enter
" You should get a response from Ollama
