🏗️ Lumen AEC Compliance Assistant

Lumen AEC is a cutting-edge AI assistant designed for architects, engineers, and construction professionals. It simplifies the process of navigating complex regulatory frameworks, including IBC (International Building Code), NFPA, and ADA standards.

🚀 Why Lumen AEC?

Unlike generic chatbots, Lumen AEC is built using Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) technology. By grounding the AI's responses in your specific, verified technical documentation, it drastically reduces "hallucinations" and ensures that every answer is backed by code-compliant data.

🛠️ Key Features

• —Domain Expertise: Highly specialized in IBC, NFPA, and ADA regulatory standards.
• —Accuracy-Focused: Responses are strictly limited to the provided context, ensuring reliability.
• —Flexible Database: Easily update and expand the assistant’s knowledge base via JSON.
• —Enterprise-Ready: Licensed under Apache 2.0, making it suitable for professional integration and future commercial scaling.

📂 How to Expand the Knowledge Base

The assistant retrieves information from lumen_models_sample.json. To add new regulations or technical requirements, simply update the JSON file using the following structure:

[
  {
    "turns": [
      {
        "value": "Your technical standard or compliance explanation goes here."
      }
    ]
  }
]
## ⚙️ Technical Requirements
To run this application, ensure you have the following environment variable configured in your deployment settings:
* `HF_TOKEN`: Your Hugging Face access token (required to authenticate with the `Qwen/Qwen2.5-7B-Instruct` model).
