This focused page is derived from the mechanically checked full member inventory.
Syntax
Arcane.ollama.settings()
Parameters
None
Return value
Description
Gets Ollama runtime settings.
Overview
Arcane.ollama.settings() reads the complete managed AI runtime/provider
settings snapshot for the Settings application. It returns the same
ArcaneModelSelection shape as selection(), but has the stronger
settings-management boundary.
Parameters
The method takes no arguments.
Return value
The snapshot contains model preference and aliases, default/boot settings, provider, OpenAI model, response length, protected-credential presence, GPU diagnostics, and recommendation state. Credentials are never returned.
Availability
This is a desktop Core Settings-only API requiring ai.settings.manage.
Android and browser previews do not expose it.
Errors and recovery
Method-admission or transport errors require the correct Settings host. Treat the result as a single snapshot; do not merge stale provider fields into a later runtime-settings save.
Streaming, cancellation, and events
This is a non-streaming read with no method event or signal. A concurrent settings or selection mutation can invalidate it immediately.
Example
const settings = await globalThis.Arcane.ollama.settings();
console.info({
defaultModel: settings.defaultModel,
bootLoad: settings.bootLoad,
contextLength: settings.contextLength
});
