How can you just wipe past chat instances in Ollama?

Users can delete chat instances in Ollama's GUI by right-clicking and deleting each chat individually, though there is a feature request for a "Select All" option to delete multiple chats at once. Alternative solutions include using third-party scripts that can clean chat history and logs from Ollama while preserving models, users, and app settings. For the CLI interface, users can clear chat context by using the /bye command and restarting the client.
