 To create a new LangChain project and install this as the only package, you can do:
 
 ```shell
-langchain app new my-app --package rag-vectara
+langchain app new my-app --package rag-vectara-multiquery
 ```
 
 If you want to add this to an existing project, you can just run:
 
 ```shell
-langchain app add rag-vectara
+langchain app add rag-vectara-multiquery
 ```
 
 And add the following code to your `server.py` file:
 ```python
 from rag_vectara import chain as rag_vectara_chain
 
-add_routes(app, rag_vectara_chain, path="/rag-vectara")
+add_routes(app, rag_vectara_chain, path="/rag-vectara-multiquery")
 ```
 
 (Optional) Let's now configure LangSmith.
