DSPy: Declarative Language Model Programming

Kheish Compatibility

This skill is repo-local and stays inactive until explicitly activated.

When the original instructions refer to legacy tool names, use these Kheish mappings:

• terminal => bash
• web_extract => web_fetch, plus web_search when discovery is needed
• search_files => grep_search and glob_search
• browser_* tools require a browser-capable surfaced tool or MCP; if none is available, use the closest available surface and say so explicitly

When the instructions mention local helper files, resolve them from ${KHEISH_SKILL_DIR}.

DSPy: Declarative Language Model Programming

When to Use This Skill

Use DSPy when you need to:

• Build complex AI systems with multiple components and workflows
• Program LMs declaratively instead of manual prompt engineering
• Optimize prompts automatically using data-driven methods
• Create modular AI pipelines that are maintainable and portable
• Improve model outputs systematically with optimizers
• Build RAG systems, agents, or classifiers with better reliability
