How basebox names versions

Releases follow the pattern major.minor.patch, for example 1.8.6. The changelog groups releases by minor version (1.8.x); patch releases bring fixes and security updates within that line. Security and feature updates are announced by e-mail and release notes.

On basebox Server the basebox version is delivered through the Helm chart version: a chart bundles frontend, AISRV, storesrv, ragsrv, ragsrv-support, identity provider, databases and inference in mutually compatible versions. Currently: chart 0.3.32 → basebox 1.8.8. The mapping is in the Version matrix.

Which version am I running?

  • In the interface: user menu at the bottom left → "About". It shows version, active model, context size, realm and whether speech recognition and the API are available.
  • On basebox Server additionally: helm list -n basebox shows chart and app version of the installed release.
  • In basebox Cloud, basebox keeps the environment up to date; you find changes in the changelog.

Binding terminology

This documentation uses Demo, basebox Cloud and basebox Server as product terms and describes a server by hardware, location and operation – not by labels such as "on-prem" or "hosted". Instead of "hardware profile" it says reference configuration with the statuses Validated · Supported · Experimental · Custom. The definitions are in the Glossary; older configuration keys such as AISRV_ON_PREMISE remain unchanged and mean "basebox Server".

The compliance package under the EU AI Act – Compliance, Disclaimer, Infra Policy, Model Register, Safety Notice – is part of Security & Compliance, not of this section.
