📄 Description

Description

Document the truncate parameter for /api/generate and /api/chat endpoints. This parameter controls whether the prompt/chat history is truncated when it exceeds the context length limit.

The parameter is already implemented in GenerateRequest and ChatRequest, and used in both endpoints, but was only documented for /api/embed.

Changes

  • Added truncate parameter documentation to the Generate endpoint's advanced parameters section
  • Added truncate parameter documentation to the Chat endpoint's advanced parameters section

Fixes #13959
