Trashchenkov Gigachat Skills Langchain Gigachat

LangChain GigaChat

Use this skill when the user is building with LangChain abstractions, not raw gigachat.

What this skill covers

• langchain-gigachat installation and initialization
• chat model usage through LangChain messages and runnables
• embeddings through GigaChatEmbeddings
• tool binding and structured outputs where supported
• RAG setup using LangChain vector stores
• practical wrapper behavior around the underlying SDK

Workflow

1. If credentials and TLS are not configured, use gigachat-setup.
2. If the task does not need LangChain primitives, prefer gigachat-sdk-* skills.
3. Initialize GigaChat or GigaChatEmbeddings with the same auth inputs as the SDK.
4. Work with LangChain message objects, not raw GigaChat payloads, unless debugging conversion.
5. For RAG, pair GigaChatEmbeddings with a vector store and keep retrieval logic in LangChain.
6. Avoid double retries when LangChain and the SDK both retry.
7. Prefer the simplest smoke-covered LangChain pattern before adding wrapper-specific complexity.

Read these references as needed

• For chat models and message/tool behavior: references/chat-models.md
• For embeddings and RAG patterns: references/embeddings-rag.md

Default output

• keep the user inside LangChain abstractions unless there is a wrapper boundary bug
• do not mix raw SDK code into normal LangChain starter examples
• call out wrapper caveats instead of assuming full parity with generic LangChain behavior

Boundaries

• Do not explain OpenAI-compatible base URLs here; use gpt2giga.
