DSPy 3.4.1 makes GEPA's structured InstructionProposer the default instruction proposer and lets dspy.RLM build DSPy sub-agents from inside its REPL.
ProofCode ↗
Key points
- Upgrade notices. GEPA's default reflection request changes shape, so optimization results can differ from 3.4.0 even with the same seed.
- The reflection LM must now be a dspy.LM that can return JSON.
- Every RLM prompt now includes a sub-agent section, and maxllmcalls now also counts sub-agent LM calls. dspy.ReActV2 signatures can no longer declare inputs named history or tools.
- dspy.GEPA now builds InstructionProposer() when you don't pass instructionproposer=.
