Note: api/generate provides template arguments which can override those in the model file.

FYI, according to api.md.

`template`: the prompt template to use (overrides what is defined in the `Modelfile`)

This is another way how you can work this around. Extract the original Modelfile that being used for a model you're interested in. The model itself should be already pulled to your local ollama repo:

ollama show gpt-oss:20b --modelfile > Modelfile-gpt-oss

Then you can modify that modelfile with any editor of your choice to change whatever you like (usually it's system prompt, the default context size, temperature) and create a new model (actually just a lightweight reference) out of it:

ollama create -f Modelfile-gpt-oss gpt-oss-mine:20b
