RubyLLM：一个支持所有主流 AI 提供商、简洁优美的 Ruby 框架

A single, beautiful Ruby framework for all major AI providers. Easily build chatbots, AI agents, RAG applications, content generators, and every AI workflow you can think of.

Battle tested at - Fully private work AI

Build a working Ruby AI chat in two minutes

Using RubyLLM? Share your story! Takes 5 minutes.

Why RubyLLM?

Every AI provider ships their own bloated client. Different APIs. Different response formats. Different conventions. It’s exhausting.

RubyLLM gives you one beautiful framework for all of them. Same interface whether you’re using GPT, Claude, or your local Ollama. Just three dependencies: Faraday, Zeitwerk, and Marcel. That’s it.

# Just ask questions
chat = RubyLLM.chat
chat.ask "What's the best way to learn Ruby?"

# Analyze any file type
chat.ask "What's in this image?", with: "ruby_conf.jpg"
chat.ask "What's happening in this video?", with: "video.mp4"
chat.ask "Describe this meeting", with: "meeting.wav"
chat.ask "Summarize this document", with: "contract.pdf"
chat.ask "Explain this code", with: "app.rb"

# Multiple files at once
chat.ask "Analyze these files", with: ["diagram.png", "report.pdf", "notes.txt"]

# Stream responses
chat.ask "Tell me a story about Ruby" do |chunk|
  print chunk.content
end

# Generate images
RubyLLM.paint "a sunset over mountains in watercolor style"

# Create embeddings
RubyLLM.embed "Ruby is elegant and expressive"

# Transcribe audio to text
RubyLLM.transcribe "meeting.wav"

# Moderate content for safety
RubyLLM.moderate "Check if this text is safe"

# Let AI use your code
class Weather < RubyLLM::Tool
  desc "Get current weather"

  def execute(latitude:, longitude:)
    url = "https://api.open-meteo.com/v1/forecast?latitude=#{latitude}&longitude=#{longitude}&current=temperature_2m,wind_speed_10m"
    JSON.parse(Faraday.get(url).body)
  end
end

chat.with_tool(Weather).ask "What's the weather in Berlin?"

# Define an agent with instructions + tools
class WeatherAssistant < RubyLLM::Agent
  model "gpt-5-nano"
  instructions "Be concise and always use tools for weather."
  tools Weather
end

WeatherAssistant.new.ask "What's the weather in Berlin?"

# Get structured output

  string :name
  number :price
  array :features do
    string
  end
end

response = chat.with_schema(ProductSchema).ask "Analyze this product", with: "product.txt"
