alt Hacker News@simonw: Any particular reason you stopped releasing "llm" regularily? I believe the last release was done in summer. Neither gpt-5.1 nor gpt-5.2 have been added. Are you about to give up on that project? Is it time to search for another one?
I also have an open issue since months, which someone wrote a PR for (thanks") a few weeks ago.
Are you still comitted to that project?
I shipped a new release yesterday - https://llm.datasette.io/en/stable/changelog.html#v0-28 but yeah, the last core release before that was in August. I've been pushing out plugin releases for it though, for new models from Gemini and Anthropic and others.
Honestly the main problem has been that LLM's unique selling point back in 2024 was that it was the only tool taking CLI access to LLMs seriously. In 2025 Claude Code and Codex CLI etc all came along and suddenly there's not much unique about having a CLI tool for LLMs any more!
There's also a major redesign needed to the database storage and model abstraction layer in order to handle reasoning traces and more complex tool call patterns. I opened an issue about that here - it's something I'm stewing on but will take quite some work to get right: https://github.com/simonw/llm/issues/1314
I've been spending more of my time focusing on other projects which make use of LLM, in particular Datasette plugins that use the asyncio Python library: https://llm.datasette.io/en/stable/python-api.html#async-mod...
I expect those to drive some core improvements pretty soon.
