pi-ollama-cloud-models

A pi extension that keeps your Ollama Cloud model list up to date automatically. It fetches the models available on ollama.com and registers them under a dedicated ollama-cloud provider, so they show up in /model without manually editing ~/.pi/agent/models.json.

Cloud models are reached through your local Ollama daemon (http://127.0.0.1:11434/v1) using the :cloud / -cloud name suffix, so this extension is non-destructive: it does not touch any existing ollama provider you have configured.

Install

pi install npm:pi-ollama-cloud-models

Or try it without installing:

pi -e npm:pi-ollama-cloud-models

What it does

• On startup, registers an ollama-cloud provider populated from https://ollama.com/v1/models, enriched with per-model capabilities and context length from https://ollama.com/api/show.
• Caches the list for 1 hour at ~/.pi/agent/extensions/.ollama-cloud-cache.json; falls back to a stale cache if the network is down.
• Adds a /ollama-cloud-refresh command to force-refresh the list and re-register the provider immediately (no /reload needed).

Requirements

• A running local Ollama daemon (ollama serve) at http://127.0.0.1:11434.
• An Ollama account signed in (ollama sign in) so cloud models can be offloaded from your machine.
