Ollama v0.40.5 (Oct 14) adds NVIDIA Nemotron 3.5 Super, a vision-language model for coding, reasoning, tool use, and document understanding with up to 1M context, plus cloud availability of decision models via clef:cloud and clef-flash:cloud, better cloud error messages, and updates to bundled llama.cpp/MLX. Pre-release v0.40.6 (Oct 16) adds q2_0 GGUF tensor/file types and launches clef in Ollama's cloud.

Why it matters

Bundling a 1M-context VLM plus cloud decision models keeps Ollama the simplest local entry point for frontier-sized open models.
