Run Sovrium AI locally with Ollama

You want Sovrium's AI features — AI fields, agents, RAG — to run on a model you host yourself, with no data leaving your server and no per-token bill.

Point Sovrium at Ollama

Install and start Ollama, pull a model, then set the provider:

ollama pull llama3.1
export AI_PROVIDER=ollama
export OLLAMA_BASE_URL=http://localhost:11434
sovrium start app.ts

Local-first is the default posture — Sovrium routes AI calls through Ollama with no API key. Swap AI_PROVIDER to a cloud provider later without touching your config.

Verify

Trigger any AI field or agent in your app; the request is served by your local model. With no provider configured, AI features boot inert rather than failing.
