llm-application-dev — Claude Code plugin: installation
A plugin for building LLM apps, RAG systems, and LangGraph agents. Use it for vector search, embeddings, prompt work, and model evaluation.
/plugin marketplace add wshobson/agents
/plugin install llm-application-dev@claude-code-workflowsWhat llm-application-dev does
llm-application-dev provides skills and subagents for LLM application development. It covers production RAG with hybrid search, vector databases such as Pinecone, Qdrant, Weaviate, Milvus, and pgvector, plus LangGraph agents with memory and tool use.
The plugin includes ai-engineer, prompt-engineer, and vector-database-engineer, along with skills for LangGraph, LLM evaluation, embeddings, similarity search, and HNSW, IVF, and Product Quantization indexes. Its commands create an agent, build an AI assistant, and optimize prompts. The listed requirements are LangChain >= 1.2.0, LangGraph >= 0.3.0, and Python 3.11+.
The current patterns moved from LangChain 0.x to LangChain 1.x and LangGraph, so older code needs adaptation. Replacing initialize_agent() with LangGraph StateGraph workflows is one concrete change to account for.
What it helps with
- create a LangGraph agent
- build a RAG system with hybrid search
- tune vector indexes and retrieval
- choose an embedding strategy
- evaluate and optimize prompts
Example prompts for the agent
- Create a LangGraph agent with memory and tool use through
/llm-application-dev:langchain-agent. - Build an AI assistant application with RAG and vector search using
/llm-application-dev:ai-assistant. - Optimize the project prompts for production with
/llm-application-dev:prompt-optimize.
