Breaking Changes

Issue #1

The original PrivateGPT API is not forward-compatible with 1.0. Consult the migration guide in the documentation for necessary changes.

Issue #2

PrivateGPT 1.0 no longer runs models internally; it requires connection to an external OpenAI-compatible inference server (e.g., Ollama, llama.cpp, vLLM).

Migration Steps

  1. 1
    Review the migration guide in the documentation to update existing code from the previous PrivateGPT API to the new 1.0 API.
  2. 2
    Configure PrivateGPT 1.0 to connect to an external OpenAI-compatible inference server, as model execution is no longer internal.

Release Summary

PrivateGPT 1.0 merges two years of development, transforming the project from a semantic search pipeline into a full application backend that connects to external inference servers for production AI applications.
