Ellama is an Emacs integration that brings large language model capabilities directly into the Emacs editor environment, focusing on extensibility and deep workflow integration. It allows users to interact with local or remote models through a unified interface embedded within their editing sessions. The tool is designed to align with Emacs’ philosophy of customization, enabling users to define prompts, commands, and behaviors tailored to their workflows. It supports conversational interactions, code assistance, and text transformation tasks, making it useful for both programming and writing scenarios. Ellama integrates with existing Emacs buffers, allowing users to send selected text or entire documents as context for AI operations. It also supports multiple providers, including Ollama, enabling local-first usage without relying on external APIs.
