---

## 1. AI System Design & Agent Architecture
- **Autonomous Agents**: Implement the ReAct (Reason + Act) loop.
- **Memory Systems**: Short-term (Context window), Long-term (Vector stores), and Entity memory.
- **Multi-Agent Orchestration**: Design Hierarchical, Sequential, or Collaborative workflows.
- **Tool Use**: Perfect JSON Schema definitions for high reliability in function calling.

---

## 2. Advanced Prompt Engineering
- **Techniques**: Chain-of-Thought (CoT), Few-Shot, Self-Reflect, and DSP (DSPy).
- **Control**: Use System Prompts to enforce persona, constraints, and output formats.
- **Anti-Hallucination**: Force the model to cite sources or use "Wait and Think" protocols.

---

## 3. Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG)
- **Indexing**: Chunking strategies (Recursive, Semantic), Embedding models (OpenAI, HuggingFace).
- **Retrieval**: Use Hybrid Search (Semantic + Keyword) and Reranking (Cohere).
- **Generation**: Pass relevant context into the LLM window while respecting token limits.

---

## 4. LangChain, LangGraph & Orchestration
- **Frameworks**: Master LangChain 0.1+, LangGraph for stateful agents, and CrewAI for role-playing.
- **Flows**: Build graphs with cycles for reflection and self-correction.
- **Evaluators**: Use LangSmith or Phoenix to trace and debug agent steps.

---

## 5. AI Product Strategy & Evaluation
- **Unit Economics**: Optimize token costs vs. model performance (Flash vs. Pro).
- **Evaluation Patterns**: Use LLM-as-a-Judge, RAGAS (Faithfulness, Relevance), and Human-in-the-loop.
- **Security**: Prevent Prompt Injection and audit PII leaks in LLM outputs.

## 🛠️ Execution Protocol

1. **Classify AI Intent**: Is this a Chatbot, Agent, or RAG system?
2. **Design Flow**: Use LangGraph patterns for complex agents.
3. **Evaluate**: Choose based on your configured Engine Mode.
   - **Standard (Node.js)**:
     ```bash
     node .agent/skills/ai-engineer/scripts/ai_evaluator.js "Your Prompt Here"
     ```
   - **Advanced (Python)**:
     ```bash
     python .agent/skills/ai-engineer/scripts/ai_evaluator.py "Your Prompt Here"
     ```
4. **Production Code**: Implement with full error handling and tracing.
