Been running n8n with Ollama for a few months now for work automation. Wanted to share what I've learned since it's not super well-documented.

The setup is just Docker Compose with n8n + Ollama + Postgres. n8n's HTTP Request node talks directly to Ollama's REST API — no custom nodes needed.

What I'm running:

Zero API costs, everything stays on my server. If anyone wants the workflow templates I have a pack: https://workflows.neatbites.com/

Happy to answer questions about the setup.
