{"slug": "datasette-llm-0-1a11", "title": "datasette-llm 0.1a11", "summary": "Datasette released version 0.1a11 of datasette-llm, the intermediate plugin that configures LLMs for other Datasette plugins, adding support for OpenAI-compatible endpoints so Datasette can use a model hosted anywhere that speaks the OpenAI web protocol. The release lets users run local models through LM Studio, Ollama or llama.cpp — which just reached v1.0.0 — and launch a Datasette Agent instance via uvx by pointing the plugins.datasette-llm.default_model setting at an api_base such as http://localhost:1234/v1.", "body_md": "**Release:** [datasette-llm 0.1a11](https://github.com/datasette/datasette-llm/releases/tag/0.1a11)\n\n`datasette-llm` is the intermediate plugin for Datasette that supports configuring LLMs for use with other Datasette plugins.\n\nThis release adds support for OpenAI-compatible endpoints, so you can configure Datasette to use an LLM hosted anywhere that talks the OpenAI pseudo-standard web protocol.\n\nThis means that if you're running local models with [LM Studio](https://lmstudio.ai) or [Ollama](https://ollama.com) or [llama.cpp](https://github.com/ggml-org/llama.cpp) (which just hit [v1.0.0](https://huggingface.co/blog/ggml-org/llama-cpp-v1)) you can run Datasette via `uvx` like this:\n\n```\nwget https://datasette.io/content.db\n\nuvx --with datasette-agent datasette \\\n  --root --secret 1 \\\n  -s plugins.datasette-llm.default_model '{\n    \"model\": \"lmstudio-qwen\",\n    \"model_name\": \"qwen/qwen3.8-27b\",\n    \"api_base\": \"http://localhost:1234/v1\"\n  }' content.db\n```\n\nAnd you'll get a local server running a Datasette Agent instance powered by your local model!\n\nTags: [uv](https://simonwillison.net/tags/uv), [datasette-agent](https://simonwillison.net/tags/datasette-agent), [llm](https://simonwillison.net/tags/llm), [datasette](https://simonwillison.net/tags/datasette), [llms](https://simonwillison.net/tags/llms), [ai](https://simonwillison.net/tags/ai), [generative-ai](https://simonwillison.net/tags/generative-ai)", "url": "https://wpnews.pro/news/datasette-llm-0-1a11", "canonical_source": "https://simonwillison.net/2026/Nov/14/datasette-llm/", "published_at": "2026-11-14 23:59:28+00:00", "updated_at": "2026-11-15 00:51:35.408969+00:00", "lang": "en", "topics": ["ai-tools", "developer-tools", "large-language-models", "ai-agents"], "entities": ["datasette-llm", "Datasette", "LM Studio", "Ollama", "llama.cpp", "uvx", "datasette-agent"], "also_reported_by": [], "alternates": {"html": "https://wpnews.pro/news/datasette-llm-0-1a11", "markdown": "https://wpnews.pro/news/datasette-llm-0-1a11.md", "text": "https://wpnews.pro/news/datasette-llm-0-1a11.txt", "jsonld": "https://wpnews.pro/news/datasette-llm-0-1a11.jsonld"}}
