Managing LLM provider connections and setting the default

You can manage connections with the various providers and set a default connection yourself. This is useful if you want to talk to Ollama or Anthropic by default, or use a different model on OpenAI.

The connections are managed using the GtLlmConnectionRegistry Object subclass: #GtLlmConnectionRegistry instanceVariableNames: 'connections defaultConnection' classVariableNames: '' package: 'Gt4Llm' class. Individual connections are saved and handled there. You can right click on any of the connectable entries below to set them as default.

New connections can be added by instantiating a connection with a provider and model and adding it to the registry.

GtLlmConnectionRegistry instance
	addConnection: (GtLlmConnection new
			provider: GtOllamaProvider;
			model: 'llama3.1')
  

You can also override the default connection to ensure that the next chat or assistant you work with uses that provider by default.

GtLlmConnectionRegistry instance
	defaultConnection: (GtLlmConnection new
			provider: GtAnthropicProvider;
			model: 'claude-3-7-sonnet-20250219')
