Fine-tune vision-language models (VLMs) with supervised learning on image+text data. Use when adapting a VLM to a visual domain or task, configuring frozen-vision-tower LoRA, or debugging a VLM fine-tune that trains without learning.
Convert evaluation traces and production logs into SFT examples and preference pairs. Use when graded traces or failure examples exist and need to become training data, when applying rejection sampling to model outputs, or when building DPO pairs from passing and failing runs.
Export a promoted fine-tuned model in the right deployment format — merged safetensors, LoRA-only, GGUF with imatrix, or FP8. Use after a checkpoint passes promotion, when choosing a quantization format for a target device, or when an exported model fails its smoke test.
Align a fine-tuned model with preference data using DPO, ORPO, KTO, or SimPO. Use when preference pairs or thumbs-up/down feedback exist, when choosing between preference-optimization methods, or when a DPO run needs hyperparameters or debugging.
Configure LoRA and QLoRA supervised fine-tuning with current best-practice hyperparameters. Use when writing or reviewing a LoRA/QLoRA training configuration, choosing rank/alpha/target modules, or deciding between LoRA, QLoRA, and full fine-tuning.
Train reasoning and verifiable-task behavior with GRPO and reinforcement learning from verifiable rewards (RLVR). Use when task success is algorithmically checkable (math, code, tool calls, structured output), when designing GRPO reward functions, or when a GRPO run diverges or reward-hacks.
Decide whether to fine-tune at all, and route to the right method (SFT, DPO/ORPO/KTO, GRPO/RLVR, continued pretraining) and base model. Use when starting any fine-tuning effort, when unsure whether RAG or prompting would suffice, or when choosing between preference-optimization and reinforcement methods.
Build the evaluation harness that gates every fine-tuning run — golden sets, per-failure-mode graders, judge calibration, and base-model baselines. Use when starting a fine-tuning effort, when converting traces into an eval set, or when calibrating a judge against human labels.
Prepare, format, and validate datasets for supervised fine-tuning and preference training. Use when converting raw data into training format, applying chat templates, configuring sequence packing, generating synthetic training data, or writing a dataset card before a run.
Gate fine-tuned checkpoints with drift budgets, paired comparison, and forgetting checks before promotion. Use after a training run produces a checkpoint, when deciding whether a tuned model ships, or when a promoted model needs re-gating against updated goldens.
Optimize vector index performance for latency, recall, and memory. Use when tuning HNSW parameters, selecting quantization strategies, or scaling vector search infrastructure.
Implement efficient similarity search with vector databases. Use when building semantic search, implementing nearest neighbor queries, or optimizing retrieval performance.
Build Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems for LLM applications with vector databases and semantic search. Use when implementing knowledge-grounded AI, building document Q&A systems, or integrating LLMs with external knowledge bases.
This skill should be used when the user asks to "optimize a prompt", "improve prompt performance", "design a prompt template", "write better prompts", "debug prompt issues", "use chain-of-thought", "structured prompting", "few-shot prompting", or wants to apply advanced prompt engineering patterns for production LLM applications.
Implement comprehensive evaluation strategies for LLM applications using automated metrics, human feedback, and benchmarking. Use when testing LLM performance, measuring AI application quality, or establishing evaluation frameworks.
Design LLM applications using LangChain 1.x and LangGraph for agents, memory, and tool integration. Use when building LangChain applications, implementing AI agents, or creating complex LLM workflows.
Combine vector and keyword search for improved retrieval. Use when implementing RAG systems, building search engines, or when neither approach alone provides sufficient recall.
Select and optimize embedding models for semantic search and RAG applications. Use when choosing embedding models, implementing chunking strategies, or optimizing embedding quality for specific domains.
Implement Kubernetes security policies including NetworkPolicy, PodSecurityPolicy, and RBAC for production-grade security. Use when securing Kubernetes clusters, implementing network isolation, or enforcing pod security standards.
Create production-ready Kubernetes manifests for Deployments, Services, ConfigMaps, and Secrets following best practices and security standards. Use when generating Kubernetes YAML manifests, creating K8s resources, or implementing production-grade Kubernetes configurations.
Design, organize, and manage Helm charts for templating and packaging Kubernetes applications with reusable configurations. Use when creating Helm charts, packaging Kubernetes applications, or implementing templated deployments.
Implement GitOps workflows with ArgoCD and Flux for automated, declarative Kubernetes deployments with continuous reconciliation. Use when implementing GitOps practices, automating Kubernetes deployments, or setting up declarative infrastructure management.
Master TypeScript's advanced type system including generics, conditional types, mapped types, template literals, and utility types for building type-safe applications. Use when implementing complex type logic, creating reusable type utilities, or ensuring compile-time type safety in TypeScript projects.
Build production-ready Node.js backend services with Express/Fastify, implementing middleware patterns, error handling, authentication, database integration, and API design best practices. Use when creating Node.js servers, REST APIs, GraphQL backends, or microservices architectures.
