Automated safety checks
This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.
Declares what it does: passed
SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.
SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.
No undeclared network calls: passed
Makes no network calls.
Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.
No obfuscated payloads: passed
No encoded or obfuscated payloads.
No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.
No credential access: passed
Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.
Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.
No pipe-to-shell installers: passed
No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.
No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

About this skill
The langchain-dependencies skill provides the foundational libraries required to build and run LangChain applications, enabling seamless integration of LLMs with external tools. It ensures that all necessary Python packages for chaining prompts, managing memory, and interacting with various data sources are correctly installed and configured.
When to use it
- Initializing a new LangChain project from scratch to ensure all core components are present.
- Resolving missing package errors when deploying an agent to a cloud environment or container.
- Upgrading the stack to access the latest features for model integration or vector store support.
- Standardizing dependencies across multiple development environments to prevent "it works on my machine" issues.
Key capabilities
- Installs core LangChain libraries including
langchain-core,langchain-community, andlangchain-experimental. - Configures required external integrations for popular LLM providers, vector databases, and retrieval tools.
- Manages version compatibility between LangChain and its underlying dependencies like Pydantic or SQLAlchemy.
Example prompts
- "Install the latest stable version of langchain-core and all community integrations."
- "Set up a fresh Python environment with langchain-experimental for advanced agent features."
- "Verify that all necessary dependencies for connecting to Pinecone are installed correctly."
Tips & gotchas
Ensure your Python environment has pip or poetry configured before running installation commands, as this skill relies on package managers. Be mindful of memory usage during installation, as installing the full suite of community integrations can require significant disk space and time.
