Quick Start
Llama Stack is a stateful service with REST APIs to support seamless transition of AI applications across different environments. The server can be run in a variety of ways, including as a standalone binary, Docker container, or hosted service. You can build and test using a local server first and deploy to a hosted endpoint for production.
In this guide, we'll walk through how to build a RAG agent locally using Llama Stack with Ollama to run inference on a Llama Model.
1. Download a Llama model with Ollama
ollama pull llama3.2:3b
This will instruct the Ollama service to download the Llama 3.2 3B model, which we'll use in the rest of this guide.
:class: tip
If you do not have ollama, you can install it from [here](https://ollama.com/download).
2. Run Llama Stack locally
We use uv to setup a virtual environment and install the Llama Stack package.
:::{dropdown} [Click to Open] Instructions to setup uv
Install uv to setup your virtual environment.
For macOS and Linux:
curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh
For Windows:
Use irm to download the script and execute it with iex:
powershell -ExecutionPolicy ByPass -c "irm https://astral.sh/uv/install.ps1 | iex"
Setup venv
uv venv --python 3.10
source .venv/bin/activate
:::
Install the Llama Stack package
uv pip install -U llama-stack
Build and Run the Llama Stack server for Ollama.
INFERENCE_MODEL=llama3.2:3b llama stack build --template ollama --image-type venv --run
You will see the output end like below:
...
INFO: Application startup complete.
INFO: Uvicorn running on http://['::', '0.0.0.0']:8321 (Press CTRL+C to quit)
Now you can use the llama stack client to run inference and build agents!
3. Client CLI
Install the client package
pip install llama-stack-client
:::{dropdown} OR reuse server setup Open a new terminal and navigate to the same directory you started the server from.
Setup venv (llama-stack already includes the llama-stack-client package)
source .venv/bin/activate
:::
3.1 Configure the client to point to the local server
llama-stack-client configure --endpoint http://localhost:8321 --api-key none
You will see the below:
Done! You can now use the Llama Stack Client CLI with endpoint http://localhost:8321
3.2 List available models
llama-stack-client models list

)
4. Python SDK
Install the python client
pip install llama-stack-client

4.1 Basic Inference
Create a file inference.py and add the following code:
from llama_stack_client import LlamaStackClient
client = LlamaStackClient(base_url=f"http://localhost:8321")
# List available models
models = client.models.list()
# Select the first LLM
llm = next(m for m in models if m.model_type == "llm")
model_id = llm.identifier
print("Model:", model_id)
response = client.inference.chat_completion(
model_id=model_id,
messages=[
{"role": "system", "content": "You are a helpful assistant."},
{"role": "user", "content": "Write a haiku about coding"},
],
)
print(response.completion_message.content)
Run the script
python inference.py
Sample output:
Model: llama3.2:3b
Here is a haiku about coding:
Lines of code unfold
Logic flows through digital night
Beauty in the bits
4.2. Basic Agent
Create a file agent.py and add the following code:
from llama_stack_client import LlamaStackClient
from llama_stack_client import Agent, AgentEventLogger
from rich.pretty import pprint
import uuid
client = LlamaStackClient(base_url=f"http://localhost:8321")
models = client.models.list()
llm = next(m for m in models if m.model_type == "llm")
model_id = llm.identifier
agent = Agent(client, model=model_id, instructions="You are a helpful assistant.")
s_id = agent.create_session(session_name=f"s{uuid.uuid4().hex}")
print("Non-streaming ...")
response = agent.create_turn(
messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Who are you?"}],
session_id=s_id,
stream=False,
)
print("agent>", response.output_message.content)
print("Streaming ...")
stream = agent.create_turn(
messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Who are you?"}], session_id=s_id, stream=True
)
for event in stream:
pprint(event)
print("Streaming with print helper...")
stream = agent.create_turn(
messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Who are you?"}], session_id=s_id, stream=True
)
for event in AgentEventLogger().log(stream):
event.print()
Run the script:
python agent.py

inference> Déjà vu!
As I mentioned earlier, I'm an artificial intelligence language model. I don't have a personal identity or consciousness like humans do. I exist solely to process and respond to text-based inputs, providing information and assistance on a wide range of topics.
I'm a computer program designed to simulate human-like conversations, using natural language processing (NLP) and machine learning algorithms to understand and generate responses. My purpose is to help users like you with their questions, provide information, and engage in conversation.
Think of me as a virtual companion, a helpful tool designed to make your interactions more efficient and enjoyable. I don't have personal opinions, emotions, or biases, but I'm here to provide accurate and informative responses to the best of my abilities.
So, who am I? I'm just a computer program designed to help you!

**LoRA Finetuning with PyTorch Tune**
PyTorch Tune provides a recipe for LoRA (Low-Rank Adaptation) finetuning, which is a technique to adapt pre-trained models to new tasks. The recipe uses the `lora_finetune_distributed` command.
...
Overall, DORA is a powerful reinforcement learning algorithm that can learn complex tasks from human demonstrations. However, it requires careful consideration of the challenges and limitations to achieve optimal results.
