I just tried out the new AI Agentic Workflows from th 2025 Summit.
I set up a local running model to use the Workflows, but when i try to use it with the “Chat Model Prompter” with the tool calling option it spits out an Error Message “Execute failed: Error code: 400 - {‘error’: {‘message’: ‘registry.ollama.ai/library/llama3:instruct does not support tools’, ‘type’: ‘api_error’, ‘param’: None, ‘code’: None}}”

How can I know if a models supports tools? And does anyone has recommendations to use a other model which is available on ollama?

Thanks to the crowds :smiley:

Llama3 Instruct probably does not support tool calling.

I experimented with this as well and noticed that e.g. codeqwen doesn’t support it, but was able to use this one:

Llama3.2 also seemed to support it, but didn’t quite get it right often enough :slight_smile:

Update:

If you filter for Tools on Ollama you should get those models that will work:
