llama.cpp ships v1.0.0 after 3.5 years, committing to semver API/ABI stability for local AI
ggerganov · x · 2026-11-13
Georgi Gerganov announced llama.cpp v1.0.0 alongside ggml v1.0.0, formally versioning the foundation of the local AI ecosystem:
- Releases: libllama (C/C++ LLM inference) and libggml (tensor library)
- Semver commitment: API/ABI-incompatible changes will always bump the major version; MAJOR = breaking public C API change, MINOR = backward-compatible features/backends/model support
- Context: 3.5 years in, the project underpins many downstream apps; as local AI and privacy grow in importance, a stable yet flexible API is critical, so boundaries will be made strictly visible to consumers
A milestone giving downstream dependents an explicit compatibility contract for local inference.
