Construct an Ollama Server Object

Constructs a reference to an Ollama server, optionally starting one if one is not running at the specified (local) URL. If the server is started, it will be killed when the returned object goes out of scope (such as when the agents using it go out of scope and there is no independent reference).

This function requires Ollama to be installed on your system. You can install Ollama from https://ollama.ai and follow their platform-specific installation instructions.

...

Arguments passed to an underlying function.
