Usage Instructions

Follow these steps to properly set up and run the Colab notebook:

1. Replace vector_store.py

Before running the Colab notebook, replace the existing file located at:

/usr/local/lib/python3.11/dist-packages/pathway/xpacks/llm/vector_store.py

with the provided vector_store.py file.

2. Upload Required Files

Upload the following files to the Colab environment:

• app_jina.py
• app_raptor.py

3. Create Required Directory

Create a folder named JINA inside the /content directory:

mkdir /content/JINA

Upload all necessary files required for question-answering into this folder.

4. Running the Notebook

Run the notebook from the beginning, executing each cell one by one.

• There is a separate example section for Interleaving and Raptor.
• If needed, you can execute these example cells. Otherwise, you may skip them.

5. Running Required Scripts in the Terminal

Before creating the vector store or retriever, ensure that app_jina.py is running in the terminal:

python app_jina.py

Whenever the Interleaving agent is retrieving, make sure app_raptor.py is running in the terminal:

python app_raptor.py

This ensures the required services are available while executing the notebook.

Following these steps will ensure smooth execution of the Colab notebook with proper file dependencies.
