## 📚 Usage Guide

### Step 1: Index Your Knowledge Base

1. Navigate to the **"Knowledge Base Indexing"** tab
2. Add URLs of documents you want to index (default includes AI/ML research papers)
3. Click **"Index Documents"** to process and store in Astra DB
4. Wait for the indexing process to complete (progress shown in real-time)

### Step 2: Execute Intelligent Queries

1. Switch to the **"Intelligent Query"** tab
2. Enter your question in the text input
3. Click **"Execute Query"**
4. The system will:
   - Analyze your query
   - Route to optimal data source (Vector Store or Wikipedia)
   - Retrieve relevant information
   - Display results with metadata

### Step 3: Monitor Performance

1. Visit the **"Analytics"** tab to see:
   - Total queries executed
   - Routing distribution (Vector Store vs Wikipedia)
   - Average execution time
   - Complete query history

## 🎓 Example Queries

### Vector Store Queries (Routed to Astra DB)
```
✅ "What are the types of agent memory?"
✅ "Explain chain of thought prompting techniques"
✅ "How do adversarial attacks work on large language models?"
✅ "What is ReAct prompting?"
```

### Wikipedia Queries (Routed to External Search)
```
✅ "Who is Elon Musk?"
✅ "What is quantum computing?"
✅ "Tell me about the Marvel Avengers"
✅ "History of artificial intelligence"
```

```

**Change embedding model:**
```python
# In app.py - KnowledgeBaseManager.setup_embeddings()
self.embeddings = HuggingFaceEmbeddings(
    model_name="all-MiniLM-L6-v2"  # Try: "all-mpnet-base-v2" for higher quality
)
```

**Adjust LLM parameters:**
```python
# In app.py - IntelligentRouter.initialize()
self.llm = ChatGroq(
    model_name="llama-3.1-8b-instant",  # Try other Groq models
    temperature=0  # Increase for more creative responses
)
```
