links:none on file
slides:none on file

Builds a local chatbot using LangChain plus IBM's Granite LLM, running entirely on a downloaded model and source on GitHub; uses a C++ backend and a LangChain prompt+chain setup, adds a callback streaming feature so answers appear word-by-word, and demonstrates a 131,072 token context setting for long contexts. Shows grammarss to force JSON outputs for tests, proves a simple stateless question/answer then upgrades to a working chat with explicit chat history storage and re-sent context.
