📄 Description

As of 1.6.9 we now package the Ollama CUDA/ROC bindings external to the AnythingLLM application since including them would bloat the executable installer size to 3GB.

Instead, we now install these dependencies using a custom install macro to pull and place the bindings properly so the internal ollama process can find them. This unlocks full GPU support (NVIDIA, AMD) and even NPU support. Since these support libraries are only expected to grow, it makes sense to break them away from the full app.

We host these files on S3, which some users may be VPN-restricted or otherwise unable to pull in. If that is the case, we need documentation on how to do the install macro action manually.
