# Offline Form Pilot

Offline Form Pilot helps a real person fill confusing forms without handing control to an autopilot. Paste a form, paste the facts you are comfortable using, and the app produces a review table with proposed values, confidence, missing fields, and questions to ask before anything is copied.

The app is designed for the Build Small Hackathon:

- **Track:** Backyard AI.
- **Small model constraint:** default target is a <=4B small model.
- **Safety posture:** no automatic submission, no hidden form filling, no legal/financial certainty.
- **Codex track:** this public repo was built with Codex-attributed commits and includes `CODEX_BUILD_LOG.md`.

## Why Small Models Fit

Form help is mostly narrow extraction, matching, and clarification. A small model can do useful work when the interface forces structured fields, review, and missing-information checks.

## Local Run

```bash
python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt
python app.py
```

## Deployment

See `DEPLOYMENT.md` for the GitHub and Hugging Face Space commands.
