DSPy GEPA Optimizer (3.2.x)
GEPA (Genetic-Pareto) is a reflective optimizer: it mutates a program's instructions and few-shots using an LM that reads your metric's textual feedback and proposes improvements. It maintains a Pareto frontier across validation tasks and is the default recommendation for complex DSPy workloads in 2026.
The expansion "Genetic-Evolutionary Prompt Adaptation" that appears in some AI-generated summaries is an LLM-hallucinated backronym. The paper defines GEPA as Genetic-Pareto; the "Pareto" is load-bearing (GEPA keeps a frontier of candidates rather than collapsing to one).
Prerequisites — do these first or GEPA wastes rollouts
- A
dspy.Modulethat runs end-to-end (seedspy-fundamentals). - A rich-feedback metric returning
dspy.Prediction(score=float, feedback=str)(seedspy-evaluation-harness). Informative feedback can support reflection; evaluate optimizer benefit on the task rather than assuming superiority. A dict with the same fields still crashesdspy.Evaluateunder DSPy 3.2.1 — usedspy.Prediction. trainsetand a separatevalset. For GEPA, maximize training examples and keep validation just large enough to represent the downstream distribution; do not reuse the same examples for both.- A
reflection_lm— a strong LM (often the same or stronger than the task LM) set totemperature=1.0for creative proposals. Current DSPy docs use a GPT-5-class reflection model with a large output budget.
Canonical call

Import paths
Either works; use the top-level in new code:
import dspy
dspy.GEPA(...) # preferred
# equivalently:
from dspy.teleprompt import GEPA
Metric contract (precise)
import dspy
def rich_metric(gold, pred, trace=None, pred_name=None, pred_trace=None):
score = ... # 0.0..1.0
feedback = ... # detailed natural-language critique
return dspy.Prediction(score=score, feedback=feedback)
Return dspy.Prediction, not a dict. Some upstream GEPA prose describes score/feedback as a dict-like shape, but dspy.Evaluate in DSPy 3.2.1 still crashes on a literal dict metric (TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for +: 'int' and 'dict'). GEPA uses dspy.Evaluate internally for candidate scoring, so a dict return can fail inside GEPA too, not just in your explicit Evaluate(...) calls.
pred_name/pred_traceare set during reflection on a specific predictor inside your module — write per-predictor feedback when possible (credit assignment). If you cannot localize feedback, return program-level feedback rather than a vague score-only critique.- Feedback quality is the load-bearing part: specifics about why it failed and what good looks like are what the reflection LM acts on.
Budget knobs
Use either auto=... or explicit budget — not both.
| Mode | Rough rollouts | When to use |
|---|---|---|
auto="light" | ~20–40 full evals | Sanity-check GEPA works on your metric |
auto="medium" | ~80–150 full evals | Everyday optimization |
auto="heavy" | ~300–600 full evals | Final run before ship |
max_full_evals=N | Explicit | Deterministic budget |
max_metric_calls=N | Explicit | Hard cap on metric invocations (more predictable cost) |
Each "full eval" ≈ len(valset) metric calls. Budget accordingly for cost.

.compile(student, *, trainset, valset=None, teacher=None) — teacher is not currently used.
Data split guidance
DSPy's general prompt-optimizer docs often recommend a validation-heavy split, such as 20% train / 80% validation, because small prompt optimizers can overfit tiny trainsets. GEPA is different: maximize the training set and reserve only enough validation examples to represent downstream behavior. The Pareto frontier still needs a real valset, but GEPA learns from traces and textual feedback on training examples, so starving trainset hurts.
BetterTogether in DSPy 3.2.x
If you want a multi-stage optimizer loop, DSPy 3.2.0's BetterTogether now accepts arbitrary named optimizers instead of the older fixed prompt_optimizer / weight_optimizer pair:
optimizer = dspy.BetterTogether(
metric=rich_metric,
bootstrap=dspy.BootstrapFewShotWithRandomSearch(metric=rich_metric),
gepa=dspy.GEPA(metric=rich_metric, auto="light", reflection_lm=reflection_lm),
)
optimized = optimizer.compile(
student=program,
trainset=trainset,
valset=valset,
strategy="bootstrap -> gepa",
)
Pass strategy= explicitly when you use named stages like bootstrap=... and gepa=.... DSPy 3.2.0's default strategy is still "p -> w -> p", which only works if your optimizer keys are literally p and w.
Keep plain GEPA as the default first pass. Reach for BetterTogether only when you have a specific reason to chain optimizers and want the valset to pick the best intermediate program.
When GEPA > MIPROv2
- Your metric can produce specific, teachable critiques (GEPA's superpower).
- The program has multiple predictors that need targeted improvements (GEPA gives per-predictor feedback; MIPRO doesn't).
- Rollout budget is small (GEPA converges faster with rich feedback).
When MIPROv2 > GEPA
- Metric is scalar-only (no signal to reflect on) — use
dspy.MIPROv2. - You want pure few-shot bootstrapping with no instruction mutation.
- Very large trainset (500+) where Bayesian search over demos pays off.
When SIMBA is worth trying
dspy.SIMBA is a lighter reflective optimizer. Try it when you want a cheaper reflective pass than GEPA, your program is simple, or you need quick exploration before committing to a full GEPA run. Keep GEPA as the default for multi-predictor programs where per-predictor feedback and Pareto candidate selection matter.
Resume & checkpointing
log_dir writes candidate programs + scores per round. To resume an interrupted run, point log_dir at the same directory — GEPA picks up from the last checkpoint. Inspect <log_dir>/candidates/ to see every proposed program.
Inference-time best-of with track_best_outputs
With track_best_outputs=True, GEPA records, per task, the best prediction seen across all candidates. At inference time on held-out data, you can ensemble or select among the top-Pareto programs for robustness. Access via optimized.detailed_results.best_outputs_valset.
Anti-patterns
- Float-only metric ("score is 0.7") with no feedback — GEPA collapses to random search.
- Same set used for train and val — Pareto selection overfits.
reflection_lm= small model — it can't critique; use the strongest LM you can afford for this role.- Running
auto="heavy"on an untested metric — burn money to learn the metric was bugged. Runauto="light"first. - Ignoring
log_dir— losing a 4-hour run to a disconnect is very painful.
Gotcha: reflection_lm is required at construction, not compile
dspy.GEPA(...) asserts reflection_lm is not None (or a custom instruction_proposer) at init time — you cannot defer it to .compile(). If you see
AssertionError: GEPA requires a reflection language model...
add reflection_lm=dspy.LM("openai/gpt-5", temperature=1.0, max_tokens=32000) to the constructor, or substitute the strongest instruction-following model available on your provider. dspy.LM(...) is a cheap stub until you actually call it, so constructing one doesn't hit the network.

# DSPy GEPA Optimizer (3.2.x)
GEPA (Genetic-Pareto) is a reflective optimizer: it mutates a program's instructions and few-shots using an LM that reads your metric's **textual feedback** and proposes improvements. It maintains a Pareto frontier across validation tasks and is the default recommendation for complex DSPy workloads in 2026.
> The expansion "Genetic-Evolutionary Prompt Adaptation" that appears in some AI-generated summaries is an LLM-hallucinated backronym. The [paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2507.19457) defines GEPA as Genetic-Pareto; the "Pareto" is load-bearing (GEPA keeps a frontier of candidates rather than collapsing to one).
## Prerequisites — do these first or GEPA wastes rollouts
1. A `dspy.Module` that runs end-to-end (see `dspy-fundamentals`).
2. A rich-feedback metric returning `dspy.Prediction(score=float, feedback=str)` (see `dspy-evaluation-harness`). Informative feedback can support reflection; evaluate optimizer benefit on the task rather than assuming superiority. A dict with the same fields still crashes `dspy.Evaluate` under DSPy 3.2.1 — use `dspy.Prediction`.
3. `trainset` and a **separate** `valset`. For GEPA, maximize training examples and keep validation just large enough to represent the downstream distribution; do not reuse the same examples for both.
4. A `reflection_lm` — a strong LM (often the same or stronger than the task LM) set to `temperature=1.0` for creative proposals. Current DSPy docs use a GPT-5-class reflection model with a large output budget.
