Run Verity JE Locally with Ollama

Run Verity locally with Ollama

Use the maintainer's Ollama route for local Verity AI, with service, model, localhost, and privacy checks.

DIRECT ANSWER

Verity JE's maintainer documents a fully local Ollama path. Install and start Ollama, obtain the model required by the maintainer tutorial, select the local provider in Verity, and verify the service on the same computer before changing mod files.

Why local is different

Ollama removes the Groq cloud key from the inference path, but it still needs local storage, memory, a running service, and a downloaded model. 'Local' does not mean zero setup or guaranteed performance.

Connection checks

Start Ollama before Minecraft. If a log says localhost:11434 refused the connection, verify the process and local firewall. Do not expose the Ollama port to the internet to make a local mod work.

Model and performance

Use the exact model or compatibility advice from the maintainer tutorial. A larger model can increase latency or exhaust RAM; test a small disposable world before moving an existing save.
