INVOKE THIS SKILL when building ANY Deep Agents application. Covers create_deep_agent(), harness architecture, SKILL.md format, and configuration options.
Scaffold a minimal local LangChain agent in Python by following the official quickstart. Use when the user wants to quickly build or try a LangChain agent locally.

Follow the live docs — do not invent an alternate API from memory:
**https://docs.langchain.com/oss/python/langchain/quickstart**
Fetch that page (Docs MCP or HTTP) and implement what it shows (weather agent + `create_agent`).
Apply these on top of the quickstart (they keep setup minimal and model-agnostic):
1. **Ask** which provider/model to use. Showcase that LangChain is model-agnostic. Suggested prompt:
> Which model should this agent use? Pass a `provider:model` string — e.g. `openai:gpt-5.5`, `anthropic:claude-sonnet-5`, `google_genai:gemini-2.5-flash-lite`. Default if you're unsure: **`anthropic:claude-sonnet-5`**.
Swap the quickstart's model string for their choice (or the default).
2. Create a **new** directory (e.g. `langchain-agent/`) and do all work there — do not pollute the open project.
3. Only secret: the provider API key in `.env` (gitignored). No LangSmith / Tavily unless they ask. Prefer they edit `.env` themselves — don't paste keys into chat.
4. Install the provider package needed for their model if the quickstart's base install isn't enough.
5. Run the example, show output, then stop. Point to `langchain-fundamentals` for next steps.
⚠️ — This project is in early development. APIs and skill content may change. Agent skills for building agents with LangChain, LangGraph, and Deep Agents. For LangSmith-specific trace and dataset workflows, use langsmith-skills.
