Release 0.6.0
[2026-02-01] Release 0.6.0 with new features and model updates:
- Default model is now
gpt-5-mini. Important: The GPT-5 model series uses different parameters than the former GPT-4* series, so you may need to adjust yourconfig.inisettings accordingly. Legacy models (gpt-4.1-mini,gpt-4o-mini) are still supported. - Introduces
SimulationExperimentEmpiricalValidatorto compare simulation results against real-world empirical data using statistical tests (t-test, KS-test). This is essential for validating that simulations match actual human behavior. - Introduces
AgentChatJupyterWidgetfor interactive conversations with agents directly in Jupyter notebooks. - New cost tracking utilities at client, environment, and agent levels to monitor API expenses.
- Adds experimental/limited Ollama support for local models. See Ollama Support for details.
- New example notebooks demonstrating empirical validation against real survey data.
Note: GPT-5 model parameters differ from GPT-4, so please retest your important scenarios and adjust configurations accordingly.*
