- RecallOS is a Python-based AI document memory and search assistant built using Streamlit, Ollama, and ChromaDB.
- I want to convert it into a terminal-only application that runs directly inside VS Code without opening a browser.
- The application should support PDF, DOCX, TXT, and Markdown documents.
- It should extract text from documents and generate embeddings using Sentence Transformers.
- ChromaDB should store document embeddings and support semantic search.
- Ollama with Gemma 3 (4B) should generate answers locally using Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG).
- The application should display relevant source documents and passages alongside answers.
- It should preserve local chat history and allow users to search previous conversations.
- I want to reuse my existing
main.py,model.py, andtools.pyfunctionality wherever possible. - Please suggest a reliable architecture and provide step-by-step implementation guidance with complete code while preserving privacy and existing features.
