Implementation Reference

  • Core handler function that performs the ollama.pull operation to download the specified model.
    /**
     * Pull a model from the Ollama registry
     */
    export async function pullModel(
      ollama: Ollama,
      model: string,
      insecure: boolean,
      format: ResponseFormat
    ): Promise<string> {
      const response = await ollama.pull({
        model,
        insecure,
        stream: false,
      });
    
      return formatResponse(JSON.stringify(response), format);
    }
  • Zod schema used for input validation in the ollama_pull tool handler.
    /**
     * Schema for ollama_pull tool
     */
    export const PullModelInputSchema = z.object({
      model: z.string().min(1),
      insecure: z.boolean().default(false),
      format: ResponseFormatSchema.default('json'),
    });
  • Tool definition export that registers the 'ollama_pull' tool, including its description, inline input schema, and handler wrapper that performs validation and delegates to the core pullModel function. Auto-loaded by src/autoloader.ts.
    export const toolDefinition: ToolDefinition = {
      name: 'ollama_pull',
      description:
        'Pull a model from the Ollama registry. Downloads the model to make it available locally.',
      inputSchema: {
        type: 'object',
        properties: {
          model: {
            type: 'string',
            description: 'Name of the model to pull',
          },
          insecure: {
            type: 'boolean',
            description: 'Allow insecure connections',
            default: false,
          },
          format: {
            type: 'string',
            enum: ['json', 'markdown'],
            default: 'json',
          },
        },
        required: ['model'],
      },
      handler: async (ollama: Ollama, args: Record<string, unknown>, format: ResponseFormat) => {
        const validated = PullModelInputSchema.parse(args);
        return pullModel(ollama, validated.model, validated.insecure, format);
      },
    };
