npx skills add giuseppe-trisciuoglio/developer-kit --skill langchain4j-spring-boot-integration
Provides integration patterns for LangChain4j with Spring Boot. Configures AI model beans, sets up chat memory with Spring context, integrates RAG pipelines with Spring Data, and handles auto-configuration, dependency injection, and Spring ecosystem integration. Use when embedding LangChain4j into Spring Boot applications, building Java LLM applications with @Bean configuration, or setting up Spring AI patterns.

Integrate LangChain4j with Spring Boot using declarative AI Services, auto-configuration, and Spring Boot starters. Configure AI model beans, set up chat memory, implement RAG pipelines with Spring Data, and build production-ready AI applications.
Use this skill when:
@Bean annotationsLangChain4j Spring Boot integration provides declarative AI Services through Spring Boot starters, enabling automatic configuration of AI components based on properties. Combine Spring dependency injection with LangChain4j's AI capabilities using interface-based definitions with annotations.
Or using YAML:
After setup, verify the configuration:
LangChain4jSpringBootAutoConfiguration activationCustomerSupportAssistant in Spring contextassistant.handleInquiry("test") and verify a response is returnedProperty-Based Configuration: Configure AI models through application.properties for different providers.
Manual Bean Configuration: For advanced configurations, define beans manually:
Multiple Providers: Use explicit wiring when configuring multiple AI providers:
Basic AI Service: Create interfaces with @AiService annotation and define methods with message templates.
Streaming AI Service: Implement streaming responses using Project Reactor:
Chat Memory: Set up conversation memory with Spring context:
Embedding Stores: Configure embedding stores for RAG pipelines with Spring Data:
Document Ingestion: Use ContentInjector and DocumentSplitter for processing documents.
Content Retrieval: Configure EmbeddingStoreContentRetriever for knowledge augmentation.
Spring Component Tools: Define tools as Spring components:
