Learn how to intercept and enhance CrewAI prompts with DSPy by monkey-patching the CrewAI call method
What you'll learn
- Understand how CrewAI constructs prompts from YAML agent and task descriptions
- Understand how to intercept final CrewAI prompts for processing before LLM calls
- Use DSPy framework for optimize the vanilla CrewAI prompts and return them for LLM calls
- Skillfully use DSPy optimizers to train your modules for custom prompt optimization use cases
- Hands-on experience with monkey-patching CrewAI internals
Requirements
- Basic understanding of Python, Prompt Engineering, CrewAI and DSPy
Description
Unlock the full potential of your CrewAI workflows by learning how to intercept and optimize crewai-constructed LLM prompts using DSPy.In this course, you’ll dive into the inner mechanics of CrewAI’s call method and learn how to monkey-patch it without breaking the method or altering the core library. This powerful technique allows you to intercept the final messages that are often sent to the LLM—giving you complete visibility into what your LLMs are actually receiving before execution.
Once intercepted, we’ll harness the power of DSPy to optimize these raw prompts for clarity, specificity, and alignment with desired outcomes.You'll learn how to apply DSPy modules such as MIPROv2 or BootstrapFewShot to systematically improve the effectiveness of prompts, reducing ambiguity and improving the reliability of multi-agent outputs. By plugging these optimized prompts back into the CrewAI flow, you’ll not only gain more control in prompting but you will also ensure your agents work smarter—not just harder.
Whether you're an AI engineer, CrewAI user, or prompt optimization enthusiast, this course gives you practical tools to elevate your agent orchestration.You’ll build a full pipeline that captures, improves, and reintegrates prompts dynamically—without breaking existing workflows. By the end, you’ll have hands-on experience crafting smarter agents and clearer task instructions, using better and automated prompt engineering strategies that go beyond trial-and-error.
Who this course is for:
- AI engineers, LLM developers, and advanced prompt engineers building agent-based systems using CrewAI and wish to gain deeper control over prompt generation using DSPy’s prompt optimization techniques
