Ollama v0.40.14 release improves Claude Code token limits and API handling

Ollama has released version v0.40.14, introducing several key updates. The release ensures that launching Claude Code via Ollama now respects the model's specific output token limit, preventing issues with the default 128k cap. Additionally, cloud web search responses through the `/api/chat` endpoint are now correctly decoded, even for compressed data. The update also modifies OpenAI-compatible endpoints to prevent overriding a model's default sampler settings when temperature or top_p parameters are not explicitly provided by the client. AI

IMPACT Enhances the usability and stability of local LLM deployments, particularly for models like Claude Code.

RANK_REASON Software release for a tool that runs LLMs locally.
