Claude Desktop can now easily run Qwen, DeepSeek and Kimi models — after Ollama’s first effort stalled

Ollama has reestablished its integration with Anthropic's Claude Desktop, allowing users to access Ollama's model library, including Qwen, DeepSeek, and Kimi, directly within Claude Desktop. This integration uses a dedicated local proxy to enable seamless switching between Ollama-hosted models and Claude's native models.
