### Doubts when executing

Hello, First I want to thank you for making this Robin tool available. I've been looking for something similar for years, as I need to monitor the exposure of my deep and darweb clients.

I uploaded RObin without errors. However, when I tried to research I had doubts. I don't have a GPT chat API, so I installed ollama3.1. Below is the print of the .env

### Ollama compatibility

Hi,

Great project. I tried to get it to run with Ollama, but somehow robin can't "see" the Ollama interface. 

When curling $OLLAMA_BASE_URL I can see that ollama is running, but when starting robin via docker, it starts up, connects to tor, shows the web UI but no option to select any LLM that my ollama instance is hosting. The .env file has the "OLLAMA_BASE_URL=xxxxx" reference as well. 

It seems all the components are there, they just don't seem to connect. 

Cheers,
