 ;; Ellama is a tool for interacting with large language models from Emacs.
 ;; It allows you to ask questions and receive responses from the
 ;; LLMs. Ellama can perform various tasks such as translation, code
 ;; review, summarization, enhancing grammar/spelling or wording and
 ;; more through the Emacs interface. Ellama natively supports streaming
