FAQPage Schema
How do I build type-safe LLM applications in Ruby?

To build type-safe LLM applications in Ruby, you can use DSPy.rb to define LLM interfaces with Sorbet types, ensuring predictable inputs and outputs for robust AI workflows.

What is programmatic prompt engineering and how does it work with Ruby?

Programmatic prompt engineering uses code to structure and optimize prompts. In Ruby, DSPy.rb facilitates this by composing reusable modules and integrating LLM providers via RubyLLM.

How do I optimize LLM prompts using data-driven techniques?

You optimize LLM prompts using automated, data-driven techniques like MIPROv2 and GEPA, which are integrated into the DSPy.rb framework to improve prompt performance systematically.

Can I compose modular components to build AI agents in Ruby?

Yes, you can build complex AI agent systems in Ruby by composing reusable DSPy modules and tools, allowing agents to access knowledge bases and provide structured responses.

Does DSPy.rb work with Sorbet for type checking LLM inputs and outputs?

Yes, DSPy.rb works directly with Sorbet to define type-safe signatures, ensuring that inputs and outputs for LLM applications are predictable and structurally validated.

What is the best way to structure LLM signatures in a Ruby application?

The best way to structure LLM signatures in a Ruby application is by defining them with Sorbet types using DSPy.rb, enabling modular composition and automated prompt optimization.
