Version Pinning by Default

We’ve removed all latest tags from Instill Core service images. Going forward, every service must reference a specific Git tag or commit hash — making dependencies more stable and traceable.

What’s new

  • Services no longer use latest — everything is now explicitly versioned
  • Better reproducibility across environments

How to run Instill Core CE

  • Stable version (recommended for most users):
git clone -b $VERSION https://github.com/instill-ai/instill-core.git && cd instill-core
make run

Replace $VERSION with the latest release tag.

  • Development version (for contributors and latest CE features):
git clone https://github.com/instill-ai/instill-core.git && cd instill-core
make compose-dev

Please update your local setup or deployment scripts accordingly.
