 - Providers/Ollama: add provider-scoped model request timeouts, thread them through guarded fetch connect/header/body/abort handling, and document `params.keep_alive` for cold local models so first-turn Ollama loads no longer require global agent timeout changes. Fixes #64541 and #68796; supersedes #65143 and #66511. Thanks @LittleJakub, @Juankcba, @uninhibite-scholar, and @yfge.
 - Providers/Ollama: preserve explicit configured model input modalities when merging discovered provider metadata so custom vision models keep image support instead of silently dropping attachments. Fixes #39690; carries forward #39785. Thanks @Skrblik and @Mriris.
 - Providers/Ollama: estimate native Ollama transcript usage when `/api/chat` omits prompt/eval counters while preserving exact zero counters, keeping local model runs visible in usage surfaces. Carries forward #39112. Thanks @TylonHH.
+- Agents/Ollama: retry native Ollama turns that finish without user-visible text, including unsigned thinking-only responses, so constrained reasoning turns can continue instead of surfacing an empty reply. Carries forward #66552 and #61223. Thanks @yfge and @L3G.
 - Providers/PDF/Ollama: add bounded network timeouts for Ollama model pulls and native Anthropic/Gemini PDF analysis requests so unresponsive provider endpoints no longer hang sessions indefinitely. Fixes #54142; supersedes #54144 and #54145. Thanks @jinduwang1001-max and @arkyu2077.
 - LLM Task/Ollama: accept model overrides that already include the selected provider prefix, avoiding doubled ids such as `ollama/ollama/llama3.2:latest`, and live-verify local Ollama JSON tasks return parsed output. Fixes #50052. Thanks @ralphy-maplebots and @Hollychou924.
 - Memory/doctor: treat Ollama memory embeddings as key-optional so `openclaw doctor` no longer warns about a missing API key when the gateway reports embeddings are ready. Fixes #46584. Thanks @fengly78.
