# CronosPMC HR Enterprise Chatbot

A production-grade Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) chatbot built for **CronosPMC** — a Dubai-based construction project management consulting and professional training practice serving GCC clients.

## What it does

Answers HR questions by retrieving relevant passages from four policy documents indexed in Pinecone:

- CronosPMC Employee Handbook (v1)
- CronosPMC Leave Policy (v1)
- CronosPMC Remote Work Policy (v1)
- CronosPMC HR FAQ (v1)

It uses GPT-4o-mini + `text-embedding-3-large`, with a strict guardrail prompt that scopes answers to HR topics only and routes confidential matters to `Info@CronosPMC.com`.

## Architecture

```
User → Gradio UI → LlamaIndex chat_engine → Pinecone (top-k retrieval)
                                          ↓
                     GPT-4o-mini ← retrieved chunks + system prompt
```

## Required Space Secrets

Configure these under **Space Settings → Variables and secrets**:

| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| `OPENAI_API_KEY` | OpenAI API key for the LLM and embeddings |
| `PINECONE_API_KEY` | Pinecone API key (free tier supports this scale) |
