Ollama Update Adds OpenClaw Support for Kimi k2.5 Cloud Model

OpenClaw Integration for Cloud Models
Ollama's latest update introduces OpenClaw support specifically for cloud-based models. This integration enables users to access and interact with models hosted remotely rather than running them locally.
Kimi k2.5 Access Details
The update provides free access to the Kimi k2.5 cloud model by default. This includes web search functionality as part of the model's capabilities. The service runs on NVIDIA data centers, which typically offer GPU acceleration for AI workloads.
OpenClaw is a tool that helps developers work with AI models through standardized interfaces and workflows. Ollama is a platform for running large language models locally, and this update extends its capabilities to include cloud-hosted models. The Kimi model series represents a family of AI models, with k2.5 being a specific version.
For developers using AI coding agents, cloud model access can be useful when local hardware is insufficient for larger models or when needing specific capabilities like web search that require external connectivity.
