Originally created by @willmorong on GitHub (Sep 21, 2025).

Recently, I've been using the Ollama app for macOS and noticed there's no option for editing Assistant responses or the system prompt.

I use this feature all the time when models will get some fact or piece of code wrong, and fixing the response manually is a great way to keep future responses correct and on-task. Otherwise, it's pretty useless to continue a conversation once you have to start sending messages hoping to correct the Assistant on something without it forgetting or playing the role of "Assistant who keeps messing up in the same way".

These features are supported by pretty much every other open-source LLM text generation app, and it's quick to implement because nothing new has to be changed in the Ollama API.
OpenRouter (the largest and most popular LLM aggregated service) also has this feature, and combined with branching it makes for a much better dev user-facing experience.

Thanks!
