📄 Description

open -a Ollama uses Launch Services to resolve the application by name, which can find a stale Ollama.app in ~/Downloads (or elsewhere) instead of the one we just installed to /Applications. When that old copy launches, it prompts "Move to Applications?" and overwrites the new installation with the old version.

Use open "/Applications/Ollama.app" to launch the exact copy we just installed.
