First beta release of Outpost - a self-hosted AI workstation that runs
local LLMs via Ollama, answers questions about your own documents (RAG),
and never sends data outside your machine.

This is an early beta. Core features work (chat, model management,
document Q&A) but there are known rough edges - see below.

What's included

  • Desktop app (Tauri) with chat, model manager, and document indexing
  • CLI (outpost chat, outpost models, outpost docs) - still basic
  • OpenAI compatible API endpoint for use with other tools

Requirements

  • Ollama installed and running locally
  • At least one chat model pulled (e.g. ollama pull llama3.2:3b)
  • nomic-embed-text pulled if you want document Q&A (ollama pull nomic-embed-text)

Known issues

  • Config file path casing is inconsistent across OSes - may cause
    duplicate config on case sensitive filesystems
  • Document parsing errors (bad PDFs, etc.) aren't always surfaced clearly in the UI
  • CLI is functional but rough

Feedback and bug reports welcome - this is very much a work in progress.
