models

A command for discovering, listing, checking, and managing Ollama models, which are AI models that run through the Ollama tool.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to scan installed models, list registered models, verify one model, or view the default model chosen for each task type.
Why use it?
It makes the available models and their registered capabilities visible, so the agent pipeline can check whether a requested model exists and see its defaults.

Command

Part of the ollama-agents plugin — 5 commands, 3 agents shipped together

Install

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

npx agentmods add commands/dansasser/claude-code-marketplace/models
Clone the repo
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/dansasser/claude-code-marketplace

Or install ollama-agents, the plugin that ships this one along with the rest of its 5 commands, 3 agents.

Per session 0 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.
When invoked 1,300 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.
Security scan B 1 finding. Scan, not verified.
Origin original No closer match found in the catalogue.
Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade B, and why

models scanned grade B with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 3d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Manage Ollama Models

Discover, list, and manage ollama models for the agent pipeline.

Usage: /models [action] [target]

Actions:

  • discover: Scan and register all installed ollama models
  • list: Show all registered models and capabilities
  • check <model>: Verify specific model availability
  • defaults: Show default models for each task type

Examples:

  • /models discover - Scan for new models
  • /models list - Show all models
  • /models check kimi-k2-thinking:cloud - Check if model available
  • /models defaults - Show default selections

You are managing the ollama model registry.

Action: ${1:-list} Target: $2

Your Process:

  1. Execute Action:

    Discover:

    # Scan ollama and update registry
    ~/.claude/scripts/discover-models.sh
    
    # Show results
    cat ~/.claude/model-capabilities.json | python3 -c "
    import json, sys
    data = json.load(sys.stdin)
    print(f'Discovered {len(data[\"models\"])} models:')
    for model, info in data['models'].items():
        caps = ', '.join(set(info['capabilities']))
        print(f'  - {model}: {caps}')
    "
    

    List:

    # Show all models with capabilities
    cat ~/.claude/model-capabilities.json | python3 -c "
    import json, sys
    from pathlib import Path
    
    registry_file = Path.home() / '.claude' / 'model-capabilities.json'
    with open(registry_file, 'r', encoding='utf-8') as f:
        data = json.load(f)
    
    print('## Registered Models\n')
    for model, info in sorted(data['models'].items()):
        caps = ', '.join(set(info['capabilities']))
        family = info.get('family', 'unknown')
        context = info.get('context_window', 'unknown')
        cost = info.get('cost', 'unknown')
    
        print(f'### {model}')
        print(f'  - Family: {family}')
        print(f'  - Capabilities: {caps}')
        if isinstance(context, int):
            print(f'  - Context: {context:,} tokens')
        else:
            print(f'  - Context: {context}')
        print(f'  - Cost: {cost}')
        print()
    "
    

    Check:

    # Check if specific model is available
    ~/.claude/scripts/check-model.sh $2
    

    Defaults:

    # Show default model selections
    cat ~/.claude/model-capabilities.json | python3 -c "
    import json, sys
    from pathlib import Path
    
    registry_file = Path.home() / '.claude' / 'model-capabilities.json'
    with open(registry_file, 'r', encoding='utf-8') as f:
        data = json.load(f)
    
    print('## Default Models by Task\n')
    defaults = data.get('user_defaults', {})
    for task, model in sorted(defaults.items()):
        print(f'- **{task}**: {model}')
    
    print('\n## Task Preferences with Fallbacks\n')
    prefs = data.get('task_preferences', {})
    for task, config in sorted(prefs.items()):
        if config.get('preferred'):
            print(f'### {task}')
            print(f'  Preferred: {config[\"preferred\"][0]}')
            if config.get('fallback'):
                fallbacks = config['fallback'][:3]
                print(f'  Fallbacks: {\" -> \".join(fallbacks)}')
            print()

    • qwen3:1.7b (lightweight, has vision)

    Code Models:

    • kimi-k2-thinking:cloud (reasoning + code, 262K context)

    • qwen2.5-coder:3b (lightweight coder)

    Reasoning Models:

    • kimi-k2-thinking:cloud (explicit thinking)
    • deepseek-v3.1:671b-cloud (strong reasoning)

    General Purpose:

    • All models have general capability
    • Prefer larger models for complex tasks
  3. Registry Location:

    • File: ~/.claude/model-capabilities.json
    • Contains: Models, capabilities, defaults, task preferences
    • Auto-updated: By discover-models.sh

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

models is a command published in the GitHub repository dansasser/claude-code-marketplace (9 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 1,300 tokens. A static security scan graded it B with 1 finding (reads agent configuration directories). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
