Show HN: A CLI to query the unsealed court files with local LLMs (github.com)

A new command-line interface (CLI) tool has been released that enables users to conduct semantic searches over the publicly available Epstein Files, which include court documents, FBI reports, flight logs, and DOJ publications. This free, open-source solution runs entirely locally, eliminating the need for an API key. Users can install the tool via pip, quickly set up an index of over 100,000 document chunks, and start querying directly through interactive commands such as `/ask` for generating answers using local language models (LLMs). The significance of this tool lies in its accessibility and the ability to leverage AI for in-depth research into sensitive and complex files without relying on cloud services. This empowers researchers and journalists to navigate the wealth of publicly available information on the Epstein case through AI-driven vector searches and relevant document retrieval. With support for various LLMs, including local options that do not require API keys, the CLI tool provides a versatile platform for extracting insights and understanding the intricate connections in these documents, all while maintaining user privacy and data integrity.
