Baml Expert

Category: Engineering · Sub-category: engineering-misc

BAML (Boundary ML) expert for projects defining LLM calls as typed functions in .baml files with a generated Python client. Use whenever the repo contains baml_src/, baml_client/, baml-cli commands, or imports from baml_py / baml_client. Covers .baml syntax (function, class, enum, client, test, retry_policy, attributes), Python integration (baml_client sync/async, streaming, ClientRegistry, Collector, TypeBuilder), Schema-Aligned Parsing, ctx.output_format, @@assert / @@check tests, @stream.done / @stream.not_null / @stream.with_state streaming, multimodal (image/audio/pdf), and debugging via BAML_LOG plus Boundary Studio. Trigger even when the user doesn't name BAML — if they ask to "add an LLM function", "fix a failing parse", "add a test for the prompt", "stream the response" in a project with baml_src/, this is the skill. Prefer this over raw LLM-SDK guidance in BAML projects.
