What is GEPA? GEPA stands for Graph-based Evolutionary Program Adaptation — a DSPy optimizer that automatically improves the prompts/instructions of a multi-module LLM program through evolutionary search. It iteratively mutates module instructions, evaluates the changes, and keeps the best-performing candidates on a Pareto front. What’s Happening in This Run This file captures a GEPA optimization run on a financial news extraction system that classifies M&A (merger/acquisition) articles and extracts structured data from them.

I also searched through GitHub issues and asked several AI assistants, including ChatGPT, Gemini, and DeepSeek.
