docs(readme): add WSL + Ollama local-model setup guide
Document running claw against a local Ollama server over its OpenAI-compatible endpoint: build, env vars (OPENAI_BASE_URL / OPENAI_API_KEY), the exact colon-tag model-name requirement (`qwen3.5:9b`, not `qwen3.5-9b`), how to list installed tags, a WSL connectivity note, and reasoning-model behaviour.

### Local models via Ollama (WSL)
|
||||
|
||||
Claw works with any OpenAI-compatible endpoint, including a local
|
||||
[Ollama](https://ollama.com) server. This is handy for offline use or for
|
||||
driving the CLI from WSL against models served on the Windows host.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
cd rust/
|
||||
|
||||
# 1. Build the release binary
|
||||
cargo build --release
|
||||
|
||||
# 2. Point claw at the local Ollama OpenAI-compatible endpoint
|
||||
export OPENAI_BASE_URL="http://127.0.0.1:11434/v1"
|
||||
export OPENAI_API_KEY="ollama" # any non-empty value works; Ollama ignores it
|
||||
|
||||
# 3. Run. Prefix the model with `openai/` so prefix routing selects the
|
||||
# OpenAI-compatible provider, and use the exact Ollama tag.
|
||||
./target/release/claw --model openai/qwen3.5:9b
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**The model name must match the Ollama tag exactly.** Ollama tags use a colon
|
||||
(`name:tag`), e.g. `qwen3.5:9b` — not a hyphen (`qwen3.5-9b`), which the server
|
||||
rejects with `404 ... model not found`. Routing to the OpenAI-compatible
|
||||
provider only kicks in when `OPENAI_BASE_URL` is set and the model name contains
|
||||
a `:` or `.`, so always pass the full tag. List the installed tags with:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
ollama list # native view
|
||||
curl -s http://127.0.0.1:11434/v1/models # OpenAI-compatible view
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
> **WSL note:** when Ollama runs on the Windows host, WSL 2 forwards
|
||||
> `127.0.0.1:11434` automatically. If the connection is refused, start Ollama on
|
||||
> the host (`ollama serve`) or point `OPENAI_BASE_URL` at the host IP instead of
|
||||
> `127.0.0.1`.
|
||||
|
||||
Reasoning ("thinking") models such as Qwen3 are supported. Ollama streams the
|
||||
chain-of-thought in a `reasoning` field with an empty `content`; claw surfaces it
|
||||
as a separate thinking block so both the reasoning trace and the final answer are
|
||||
rendered.

||||

||||
## Mock parity harness
|
||||
|
||||
The workspace now includes a deterministic Anthropic-compatible mock service and a clean-environment CLI harness for end-to-end parity checks.
