Bug: "No valid XML found in response" when using local Ollama models #355

Description

Hello,

I am unable to generate a wiki from a local repository when using the ollama-local configuration on Windows. The process fails with the error "No valid XML found in response".

Steps Taken:

    Successfully built and ran the deepwiki:ollama-local Docker container.

    Configured the .env file to use Ollama for embeddings (EMBEDDING_PROVIDER=ollama).

    Attempted to generate a wiki using both the qwen3:1.7b and llama3 models.

The error occurs with both models. This suggests the application is requiring a specific XML output format that these general-purpose Ollama models do not provide. The setup appears to be correct, and the issue seems to be an incompatibility in the application's code.
