It exposes four main model classes\u2014ChatWatsonx for chat interactions, WatsonxLLM for text generation, WatsonxEmbeddings for semantic embeddings, and WatsonxRerank for relevance reranking\u2014each wrapping IBM's models through the ibm-watsonx-ai SDK.\n\nThe package handles authentication via IBM Cloud API keys, parameter configuration through model-specific schema classes, and toolkit utilities for agent-based workflows. It depends on langchain-core for the base LangChain abstractions and json-repair for robustness. Setup requires an IBM Cloud account, API key, and a watsonx.ai project or space; once configured, you instantiate a model class with your credentials and invoke it like any other LangChain model.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you are already using LangChain and need to integrate IBM watsonx.ai models. The package is actively maintained, has low install friction, carries no known vulnerabilities, and is MIT-licensed. Requires IBM Cloud credentials and familiarity with LangChain's model abstraction layer; not suitable if you do not have access to IBM watsonx.ai or prefer other model providers."},"id":"langchain-ibm","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/langchain-ibm","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/langchain-ibm.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/langchain-ibm/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-06-03","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"langchain-ibm","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"An integration package connecting IBM watsonx.ai and LangChain"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":716196,"position":5246,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.1.0"}
