Simon Willison reports the release of LLM 0.36, introducing support for new OpenAI models alongside updates to model plugins and logging features. The update incorporates support for gpt-6-sol for GPT-6 Sol and gpt-6-luna for GPT-6 Luna, as well as contributions from five new contributors.
Plugin Capabilities and Logging Updates
The 0.36 release introduces a mechanism for model plugins to declare supports_conversation equals False for models restricted to single-turn prompts. When these models encounter assistant or tool history, LLM raises an llm.ConversationNotSupported exception and rejects chat sessions beforehand. The llm-typesafe plugin is noted as the first to adopt this capability. Additionally, markdown output in LLM logs now wraps reasoning traces in specific tags.
Unanswered Questions and What Lies Ahead
The announcement did not specify the full extent of capabilities or technical limitations for the newly added OpenAI models, nor did it detail the specific bug fixes provided by the five new contributors. Observers will need to watch repository updates for further documentation on single-turn prompt enforcement and plugin compatibility.
Users can update to LLM 0.36 now to access the latest model integrations and plugin enhancements.
