## Description

This project is a containerized development stack and application framework for building retrieval-augmented generation systems. It provides a dockerized AI sandbox that integrates local model runtimes, knowledge graphs, and vector stores to enable the creation of contextual chatbots.

The stack is distinguished by its graph-based vector store, which combines structured knowledge graphs with vector indices for both semantic and structural data retrieval. It allows for local model hosting with CPU or GPU acceleration, enabling generative tasks without reliance on external cloud APIs.

The framework covers a broad range of capabilities, including the processing and indexing of PDF documents, the orchestration of container-based AI services, and the implementation of grounded response generation. It includes a web-based chat interface with incremental response streaming and a standardized interface for switching between different language model providers.

The environment is bootstrapped using container orchestration to rapidly deploy a pre-configured stack of models and databases.
