# Ollama Stack

Deploy a local LLM stack for offline and privacy-first workflows.

## Minimal Setup

```bash
curl -fsSL https://ollama.com/install.sh | sh
ollama serve
ollama pull llama3.1:8b
ollama run llama3.1:8b
```

## Docker Compose Pattern

- Ollama container with persistent model volume
- Open WebUI for chat interface
- Optional LiteLLM proxy for unified API routing

## Best Practices

- Pin model versions for reproducibility.
- Monitor VRAM, RAM, and swap utilization.
- Restrict network exposure to trusted subnets.
