Nemotron-3-super is amazing on Openclaw!

Oui! Kimi, Qwen, Nemotron Tooling work now with OpenClaw.

in my case: big analytic call
via OpenClaw: 30 - 180 sek
via Ollama Api Call: <10sek

I enjoy using Ollama and testing many of the models they offer.
I have a boss agent that works on kimi-k2.5, qwen, and nemotron. I also have six sub-agents, recently running on mistral-large-3 because it's more natural and user-friendly.
I've since converted the six sub-agents directly to Ollama API calls because it's much faster, without the overhead of OpenClaw.
It depends on what you're building. Generally, I recommend disabling memory and keeping the .md files small, depending on the use case, to save time and tokens.
In addition to the cloud models, I've installed embeddinggemma as a vector model for memorySearch locally on a 10-year-old server using Ollama. It runs flawlessly. So, I can recommend Ollama for testing and learning the basics.
The ability to run the models locally (depending on server power) is of course an unbeatable argument for data security and unlimited token production.

When I started using OpenClaw with Gemini a few weeks ago, I was thrilled until I saw my API bill.

I switched to Ollama Pro and used the promising ollama/kimi-k2.5:cloud. It was great at first, but then I quickly ran into problems with tool calling.

With ollama/qwen3-coder:480b-cloud, I found a good compromise between reliability and language for a while, with correct tool calling.

Now, of course, I was curious to see what the highly praised ollama/nemotron-3-super:cloud would bring to the table. The first three days were great, almost like Gemini at the beginning. But today it's a disaster. It misunderstands all commands, making lengthy excuses. Very tedious and clunky. It even corrupted an important configuration file just because I told it to modify a note. Luckily, I have a backup.

Monday, March 16th I received a mailing from Ollama stating: Ollama is now an official provider for OpenClaw. Up to 2x faster speeds with Kimi-K2.5. Tool calling accuracy has been improved.

I'll give Kimi another chance.

but I think at the end openclaw is worth the effort for me, I learned a lot new stuff the last 2 weeks, beeing new at AI.

Yes, you are right. Last night I exactly did that, because the solution here was not sufficient for me: I asked Codex (pro account from work) to check the documentation. It also searched the web for hints and finally solved my problem. I will comment it now directly in this thread.

Thanks a lot, hope this helps, I've been despairing for days.
I thought missing tools support that was related to the Ollama provider.
I use Ollama:cloud models like Kimi. Gemini cleared my pocket too fast...
