The workflow
1
Start with the model
Install Ollama, then download the coding model.
ollama run qwen2.5-coder:7b2
Connect your editor
In Cline, select Ollama as the provider and use http://localhost:11434. Select your installed model.
3
Try a small task
Use a disposable repository first. Review generated changes and keep tool approval enabled. Tool reliability in this setup has not yet been tested.
When it doesn’t go to plan
The editor cannot find the model
Confirm Ollama is running and the provider address and model name match your local installation.
