IGEL RFP Assistant

This project provides a Streamlit application for assisting with security questionnaires. It can answer questions using a cached knowledge base powered by a Chroma vector store or by querying OpenAI's API.

Features

• Upload a CSV file of security questions and automatically fill in answers from the knowledge base.
• Optionally query the OpenAI assistant for unanswered questions.
• Chatbot mode for single question interaction.

Setup

1. Install dependencies:

   pip install -r requirements.txt

2. Create a .env file based on .env.example and set your OpenAI API key.
   • OPENAI_API_KEY – your OpenAI API key.
   • CHROMA_PERSIST_DIR – optional path for storing the Chroma database (defaults to chroma_storage).
3. Run the application with Streamlit:

   streamlit run app.py

Usage

The app has two tabs:

1. CSV Mode – upload a CSV with a Question column to automatically generate answers.
2. Chatbot Mode – interactively ask questions and update the knowledge base.

All approved answers are stored in the vector database for future reuse.
