This is a simple Windows batch utility that wraps Ollama CLI commands for managing GGUF-based models.

@echo off
setlocal enabledelayedexpansion

:: Use filename as model name
set "MODEL_NAME=%~n0"
set "MODEL_FILE=%MODEL_NAME%.gguf"
set "TEMP_MODELF=Modelfile_%MODEL_NAME%"

:MENU
cls
echo ============================================
echo   Ollama Manager - Model: %MODEL_NAME%
echo ============================================
echo  1. Install/Update model
echo  2. Delete model
echo  3. Exit
echo ============================================
set /p "choice=Choose option (1-3): "

if "%choice%"=="1" goto INSTALL
if "%choice%"=="2" goto DELETE
if "%choice%"=="3" goto :EOF
goto MENU

:INSTALL
echo.
echo [1/3] Checking for %MODEL_FILE%...

if not exist "%MODEL_FILE%" (
    echo ERROR: "%MODEL_FILE%" not found in this folder.
    pause
    goto MENU
)

if exist "%TEMP_MODELF%" del "%TEMP_MODELF%" >nul 2>&1

echo [2/3] Creating Modelfile...
(
    echo FROM "./%MODEL_FILE%"
    echo # Optional: TEMPLATE / PARAMETER lines
) > "%TEMP_MODELF%"

echo [3/3] Installing into Ollama...
ollama create "%MODEL_NAME%" -f "%TEMP_MODELF%"
set RESULT=%errorlevel%

del "%TEMP_MODELF%" >nul 2>&1

if not "%RESULT%"=="0" (
    echo.
    echo ERROR: Failed to create model. Ensure Ollama is running.
) else (
    echo.
    echo SUCCESS: Model "%MODEL_NAME%" is ready!
)

pause
goto MENU

:DELETE
echo.
echo Checking for existing model...

ollama list | findstr /i "%MODEL_NAME%" >nul
if errorlevel 1 (
    echo Model "%MODEL_NAME%" is not currently installed.
    pause
    goto MENU
)

echo.
echo WARNING: This will permanently delete "%MODEL_NAME%".
set /p "confirm=Are you sure? (Y/N): "

if /i not "%confirm%"=="Y" (
    echo Deletion cancelled.
    pause
    goto MENU
)

echo Deleting...
ollama rm %MODEL_NAME%

if errorlevel 1 (
    echo ERROR: Failed to remove model.
) else (
    echo Model "%MODEL_NAME%" removed successfully.
)

pause
goto MENU

Purpose:

  • Install a local GGUF model into Ollama using a double-click BAT file
  • Delete installed models safely with confirmation
  • Avoid manual CLI usage for basic model management on Windows

How it works:

  • Uses filename as model name (example: model.bat + model.gguf)
  • Creates temporary Modelfile internally
  • Runs: ollama create / ollama rm
  • Provides install/delete menu interface

Limitations:

  • Requires Ollama installed and available in PATH
  • Assumes .gguf filename matches model name
  • Does not integrate with Ollama UI or API
  • Pure CLI wrapper (Windows BAT only)

This is shared as a lightweight utility for Windows users who manage local GGUF models manually.

If not appropriate for the main repo, feel free to close or redirect to a more suitable place.
