-VS Code includes built-in AI chat through GitHub Copilot Chat. Ollama models can be used directly in the Copilot Chat model picker.
+Use Ollama models in VS Code Chat with the [Ollama extension](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=Ollama.ollama).
 
+## Requirements
 
-![VS Code with Ollama](/images/vscode.png)
+- [Visual Studio Code 1.120 or newer](https://code.visualstudio.com/download)
+- Ollama installed and running
 
+## Get started
 
-## Prerequisites
+1. Install the [Ollama extension](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=Ollama.ollama) from the VS Code Marketplace.
+2. Open Chat in VS Code.
+3. Open the model picker at the bottom of the chat input.
+4. Choose a model from the **Ollama** section.
 
-- Ollama v0.18.3+
-- [VS Code 1.113+](https://code.visualstudio.com/download)
-- [GitHub Copilot Chat extension 0.41.0+](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=GitHub.copilot-chat)
+The extension discovers models from `http://127.0.0.1:11434` by default.
 
-<Note> VS Code requires you to be logged in to use its model selector, even for custom models. This doesn't require a paid GitHub Copilot account; GitHub Copilot Free will enable model selection for custom models.</Note>
+## Troubleshooting
 
-## Quick setup
+If Ollama models do not appear in the model picker:
 
-```shell
-ollama launch vscode
-```
-
-Recommended models will be shown after running the command. See the latest models at [ollama.com](https://ollama.com/search?c=tools).
-
-Make sure **Local** is selected at the bottom of the Copilot Chat panel to use your Ollama models.
