Setup

Python virtual env

• $python3 -m venv .venv
• source .venv/bin/activate

(may need to run sudo apt install python3.11-venv)

I'm using Debian 12

• $sudo apt install pkg-config build-essential python3-dev python3-tk
• $sudo apt install curl
• curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh
• $sudo apt install protobuf-compiler

Requirements

You should see (.venv) in your terminal if your virtual environment is activated.

Then you can run $pip install -r requirements.txt

Please note, it takes around 3-4 hours to install pydantic ai if doing on the Eee PC itself (1005HA). Should probably find another way to get the wheels such as tiktoken, cryptography, etc...

Credentials

For model API keys these are stored in a .env file

Run app from source
