Trigger the API in a chat buffer by :w<CR>

Using buftype=acwrite allows you to take over the buffer read and write operations and handle them manually via autocmds BufReadCmd and BufWriteCmd, respectively. I have an example in op.nvim. You could use this to have :w in the chat buffer act the same as the default <C-s> keybind.

That's a great suggestion!

Actually looking at the code it looks like you've already done this, I just got confused because ollama was pulling the model so there was a huge delay.

It could be a good enhancement to add a loading indicator to the chat buffer or something. I can try to work on a PR for that.

Ah I thought you were referencing calling the keymap mapping via :w which would allow a user to override that via the config.

Also, more than happy for a spinner PR!
