Vim-Chat Asynchronous AI Chat Buffers in Vim with Ollama

I've been tinkering with making a few Vim plugins lately, and this is my latest creation: vim-chat It's fairly barebones at the moment, but it allows users to type in a quiery into a buffer and send it with <CR> asynchronously, so that users can continue editing in another buffer without interruption to their workflow It only requires curl and any recent version of vim or neovim. I built this to work with ollama, but in theory this should also work with OpenAI or any other authenticated endpoint. This is my first submissions here, keen to hear questions or feedback!
