dspy-custom-module-design
This skill should be used when the user asks to "create custom DSPy module", "design a DSPy module", "extend dspy.Module", "build reusable DSPy component", mentions "custom module patterns", "module serialization", "stateful modules", "module testing", or needs to design production-quality custom DSPy modules with proper architecture, state management, and testing.
npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill dspy-custom-module-design --agent claude-code
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# DSPy Custom Module Design ## Goal Design production-quality custom DSPy modules with proper architecture, state management, serialization, and testing patterns. ## When to Use - Building reusable DSPy components - Complex logic beyond built-in modules - Need custom state management - Sharing modules across projects - Production deployment requirements ## Related Skills - Module composition: [dspy-advanced-module-composition](../dspy-advanced-module-composition/SKILL.md) - Signature design: [dspy-signature-designer](../dspy-signature-designer/SKILL.md) - Optimization: [dspy-miprov2-optimizer](../dspy-miprov2-optimizer/SKILL.md) ## Inputs | Input | Type | Description | |-------|------|-------------| | `task_description` | `str` | What the module should do | | `components` | `list` | Sub-modules or predictors | | `state` | `dict` | Stateful attributes | ## Outputs | Output | Type | Description | |--------|------|-------------| | `custom_module` | `dspy.Module` | Production-ready module | ## Workflow ### Phase 1: Basic Module Structure All custom modules inherit from `dspy.Module`: ```python import dspy class BasicQA(dspy.Module): """Simple question answering module.""" def __init__(

What does the dspy-custom-module-design skill do?
This skill should be used when the user asks to "create custom DSPy module", "design a DSPy module", "extend dspy.Module", "build reusable DSPy component", mentions "custom module patterns", "module serialization", "stateful modules", "module testing", or needs to design production-quality custom DSPy modules with proper architecture, state management, and testing.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill dspy-custom-module-design --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From majiayu000/claude-skill-registry, a repository with 534 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
