The ggml‑org team published llama.cpp version b11701 on Oct 17, 2026. The update adds a Beam (Reflection) model feature, which lets users run beam‑search style inference. It also provides pre‑built binaries for macOS Apple Silicon, Intel, iOS, and various Ubuntu builds including Vulkan and CUDA 12.8 support.
Developers can now use llama.cpp with beam search on more platforms, improving the quality of generated text without writing custom code.
