I don't think ollama officially supports any proper tool use via api.

Huh, I was pretty sure I used it before, but maybe I’m confusing it with some other python-llm backend.

Is https://ollama.com/blog/tool-support not it?

It depends on the model. Deepseek-R1 says it supports tool use, but the system prompt template does not have the tool-include callouts. YMMV
