How does the skill help identify what needs to be migrated?

It includes a Phase 1 Assessment script that scans your codebase for legacy patterns and classifies them by migration complexity (low, medium, or high).

What legacy frameworks does this migration skill cover?

The skill provides specific strategies for migrating from the OpenAI SDK (v0 and v1), LlamaIndex, and various custom-built agent implementations.

Does it handle complex data types like chat history and tools?

Yes, it provides specific mapping examples for converting legacy message formats to LangChain Message objects and transforming custom function calls into LangChain Tools.

Can I migrate my application without downtime?

Yes, the skill details a 'Parallel Implementation' strategy using Dual Runners and feature flags to validate the new LangChain code alongside legacy code before switching over.

Data Science & ML

Provides comprehensive strategies and code patterns for migrating legacy LLM applications to the LangChain framework.

About

This skill equips developers with the tools and architectural patterns needed to modernize LLM-powered applications by transitioning them to LangChain. It covers specific migration paths from the raw OpenAI SDK, LlamaIndex, and custom-built agent frameworks into standardized LangChain LCEL and Tool Calling architectures. Beyond simple code conversion, the skill provides a multi-phase strategic approach including automated codebase assessment, parallel implementation for validation, and feature-flagged rollout strategies to ensure production stability during the transition.

Key Features

Detailed conversion logic for message history, tool schemas, and output parsers
Parallel implementation patterns (Dual Runners) for cross-validation
Step-by-step phased rollout strategies using feature flags
Automated codebase assessment to identify and prioritize migration targets
983 GitHub stars
Standardized migration patterns for OpenAI SDK and LlamaIndex to LangChain

Use Cases

Implementing a low-risk phased migration for complex AI agents in live environments
Refactoring a raw OpenAI SDK prototype into a production-ready LangChain pipeline
Consolidating multiple disparate AI frameworks into a unified LangChain ecosystem
