Released on May 24, 2026, localmodelproxy v0.5.1 is a focused update aimed at improving the tool’s transparency and diagnostic capabilities. While minor in scale, these changes provide valuable metadata that simplifies environment verification and troubleshooting for users across different platforms.

What’s new

The primary update in this release is the enhancement of the --version command. Instead of providing only the version number, the tool now outputs detailed environment metadata.

When you run localmodelproxy --version, you will now see the version string alongside the Go runtime version and the system architecture. For example: localmodelproxy version v0.5.1 (go1.23.0, linux/amd64)

Additionally, this release includes an update to the internal CodeQL security scanning dependencies to ensure the project remains protected by the latest vulnerability detection rules.

Why it matters

For users deploying localmodelproxy across various operating systems and architectures, knowing exactly which runtime and platform the binary is targeting is critical for debugging. By standardizing this output, we make it significantly easier for users to provide precise environment details when reporting issues or auditing their local AI infrastructure.

Getting started with v0.5.1

You can upgrade to the latest version by downloading the binary from the GitHub releases page or by building from the latest source tag.
