Extract API definitions, models, and provider specifications into a
standalone llama-stack-api package that can be published to PyPI
independently of the main llama-stack server.
Motivation
External providers currently import from llama-stack, which overrides
the installed version and causes dependency conflicts. This separation
allows external providers to:
- Install only the type definitions they need without server dependencies
- Avoid version conflicts with the installed llama-stack package
- Be versioned and released independently
This enables us to re-enable external provider module tests that were
previously blocked by these import conflicts.
Changes
- Created llama-stack-api package with minimal dependencies (pydantic, jsonschema)
- Moved APIs, providers datatypes, strong_typing, and schema_utils
- Updated all imports from llama_stack.* to llama_stack_api.*
- Preserved git history using git mv for moved files
- Configured local editable install for development workflow
- Updated linting and type-checking configuration for both packages
- Rebased on top of upstream src/ layout changes
Testing
Package builds successfully and can be imported independently.
All pre-commit hooks pass with expected exclusions maintained.
Next Steps
- Publish llama-stack-api to PyPI
- Update external provider dependencies
- Re-enable external provider module tests
