README

Create and search a vector database from a wide variety of file types and get more reliable responses from an LLM. This is commonly referred to as “retrieval augmented generation.”

Requirements

Tool	Purpose
🪟 Microsoft Windows	Only for Windows but open to pull requests
🐍 Python 3.11–3.14	Run the application
🌿 Git	Clone / manage the repository
🧲 Git LFS	Handle large model files
🛠️ Visual C++ Build Tools	Required for compiling dependencies
🎮 NVIDIA GPU (optional)	GTX 16-series / RTX 20-series or newer (driver 580+) for GPU acceleration; without one the program runs in CPU-only mode

Or you can try running these commands in Powershell on Windows:

Install:

winget install Microsoft.VisualStudio.2022.BuildTools --silent --accept-source-agreements --accept-package-agreements --override "--wait --quiet --add Microsoft.VisualStudio.Component.VC.Tools.x86.x64 --add Microsoft.VisualStudio.Component.Windows11SDK.22621"

Verify installation:

Test-Path "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\BuildTools\VC\Tools\MSVC"

Installation

Download the latest “release,” extract, navigate to the `src` folder, and run the following commands:

python -m venv .

.\Scripts\activate

python setup_windows.py

python gui.py

Tip 提示

The installer detects your hardware automatically. If no supported NVIDIA GPU is found, it installs the CPU-only version, which offers smaller models suited to running on a CPU. To force a CPU-only install on a computer that has a GPU, run python setup_windows.py --force-cpu instead.

Inputs → Processing → Vector Database


📂 Ingest	📄 `.pdf`, `.docx`, `.txt`, `.html`, `.htm`, `.md`, `.csv`, `.xls`, `.xlsx`, `.xlsm`, `.rtf`, `.eml`, `.msg` 🖼️ `.png`, `.jpg`, `.jpeg`, `.bmp`, `.gif`, `.tif`, `.tiff` 🎵 `.mp3`, `.wav`, `.m4a`, `.ogg`, `.wma`, `.flac`
⚙️ Process	📝 Extract text from documents 🖼️ Generate descriptions from images 🎧 Transcribe speech from audio
🧠 Store	All processed content is embedded and saved into the vector database for searching.

Query → LLM → Output


❓ Ask	⌨️ Type or 🎙️ record a question
🧠 Retrieve	Relevant chunks are pulled from the vector database
🤖 Generate	Sent to an LLM (Local Model, Kobold, LM Studio, or ChatGPT)
💬 Respond	LLM returns an answer based on the context you provided
🔊 Optional	Text-to-speech can read the response aloud

Usage

Note 注意

Instructions on how to use the program are being consolidated into the Ask Jeeves functionality, which can be accessed from the “Ask Jeeves” menu option. Please create an issue if Jeeves is not working.
