dspy-react-agent-builder
This skill should be used when the user asks to "create a ReAct agent", "build an agent with tools", "implement tool-calling agent", "use dspy.ReAct", mentions "agent with tools", "reasoning and acting", "multi-step agent", "agent optimization with GEPA", or needs to build production agents that use tools to solve complex tasks.
npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill dspy-react-agent-builder --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 ReAct Agent Builder ## Goal Build production-quality ReAct agents that use tools to solve complex multi-step tasks with reasoning, acting, and error handling. ## When to Use - Multi-step tasks requiring tool use - Search + reasoning workflows - Complex question answering with external data - Tasks needing calculation, retrieval, or API calls ## Related Skills - Optimize agents: [dspy-gepa-reflective](../dspy-gepa-reflective/SKILL.md) - Define signatures: [dspy-signature-designer](../dspy-signature-designer/SKILL.md) - Evaluate performance: [dspy-evaluation-suite](../dspy-evaluation-suite/SKILL.md) ## Inputs | Input | Type | Description | |-------|------|-------------| | `signature` | `str` | Task signature (e.g., "question -> answer") | | `tools` | `list[callable]` | Available tools/functions | | `max_iters` | `int` | Max reasoning steps (default: 20) | ## Outputs | Output | Type | Description | |--------|------|-------------| | `agent` | `dspy.ReAct` | Configured ReAct agent | ## Workflow ### Phase 1: Define Tools Tools are Python functions with clear docstrings. The agent uses docstrings to understand tool capabilities: ```python import dspy def search(query: str) -> list[

What does the dspy-react-agent-builder skill do?
This skill should be used when the user asks to "create a ReAct agent", "build an agent with tools", "implement tool-calling agent", "use dspy.ReAct", mentions "agent with tools", "reasoning and acting", "multi-step agent", "agent optimization with GEPA", or needs to build production agents that use tools to solve complex tasks.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill dspy-react-agent-builder --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.
