# ARGObot: UWF's Custom AI Advisor

ARGObot is a modular question-answering chatbot that uses either OpenAI (GPT-4) or Google's Gemini with Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG). Designed with Langchain, LangGraph, and Streamlit, it allows students to query university policies directly from documents like the UWF Student Handbook.

## Features

-  Easily switch between `OpenAI` and `Gemini` models.
-  Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) using PDF knowledge base.
-  Tool integration for fallback search (Google Search).
-  Conversational memory with LangGraph.
-  Custom UI with UWF branding and Streamlit.

## Local Development

```bash
# Install dependencies
pip install -r requirements.txt

# Set environment
export MODEL_PROVIDER=openai  # or gemini
export OPENAI_API_KEY=your-key
export GOOGLE_API_KEY=your-key

# Run Streamlit
streamlit run app.py
```
