Dspy Go

Dspy Go is a native Go implementation of the DSPy framework for systematic prompt engineering and automated reasoning in language-model applications. It provides composable modules and workflows for direct prediction, chain-of-thought reasoning, ReAct tool use, large-context exploration, refinement and parallel processing, alongside agent and multi-agent features.

Practical overview

When it fits

Use Dspy Go when the application is written in Go and needs systematic prompt engineering, composable LLM modules, automated reasoning or agent orchestration rather than one-off model calls.

Who it is for

  • Go developers building LLM-powered applications
  • Teams creating AI agent workflows in Go
  • Developers porting DSPy-oriented logic into Go codebases
  • Engineers needing reusable prompt, tool and reasoning components

Documented uses

  • Define structured input and output contracts for language-model modules
  • Compose reusable reasoning and agent components
  • Connect applications to supported LLM providers
  • Add tool use, structured output and multi-agent orchestration
  • Explore or optimize LLM workflows through the CLI and documented optimizers
Before you choose

Requirements & limits

The project is distributed as a public MIT-licensed Go repository. The documented installation uses Go, and the technical profile identifies Linux, macOS, Windows, CLI, server and self-hosted environments.

  • Go is the implementation language and the documented installation uses Go modules.
  • Provider choice includes Anthropic, OpenAI, Google Gemini, Ollama and LlamaCPP.
  • Modules resolve models through module-local, request-local or package-default configuration.
  • Agent capabilities range from ReAct tool use to ACE and A2A orchestration.
  • The repository includes both a programming API and a CLI workflow.

Check current requirements in the official documentation. Source-based guidance does not mean OpenViST has run or independently tested this project.

Source-based practical guide

Install Dspy Go and build its CLI

Set up the repository and produce the documented Dspy Go command-line binary.

Before you start

  • A Go development environment
  • The public dspy-go repository
  • A Gemini API key for the documented CLI example

Steps

  1. Obtain the Go module with the command below.

    Documented command
    go get github.com/XiaoConstantine/dspy-go

  2. Change to cmd/dspy-cli in the repository.

  3. Build the binary with the command below.

    Documented command
    go build -o dspy-cli

  4. Set the GEMINI_API_KEY environment variable when using the documented Gemini CLI example.

Expected outcome

A locally built `dspy-cli` binary is available for the documented optimizer and session-log commands.

Guide limitations

  • The cited setup instructions document building the CLI and configuring Gemini, but do not establish results for a particular optimizer run.
  • Provider access and model behavior depend on the configured language-model service.
