explORE-AI — A Specialized Fork of Aider for Open Source Risk Engine (ORE)

Built upon the amazing foundation of Aider

explORE-AI helps you navigate, understand, and contribute to the Open Source Risk Engine (ORE) codebase. Originally derived from the powerful Aider AI pair-programming tool, this fork is tailored for domain-specific insights into ORE. If you find Aider useful for general purposes, please check out their project. For ORE-focused development, read on!

Why explORE-AI?

Open Source Risk Engine (ORE) is a large and sophisticated library for risk analytics, financial instrument modeling, and more. Diving into ORE can be intimidating due to its size and complexity.

explORE-AI:

• Leverages Aider’s AI pair-programming features and tailors them for ORE development.
• Provides specialized insights into ORE’s architecture, including analytics, classes, and data relationships.
• Helps generate targeted refactors, test scaffolds, or risk analytics examples relevant to ORE.

We owe a huge thanks to Aider for providing the robust foundation that made this fork possible.

Features

• 🏦 ORE-Specific Insights — explORE-AI can reference and analyze ORE’s specific code structure, giving more precise guidance.
• 🗺️ Codebase Mapping — Just like Aider, but with a deeper understanding of the ORE ecosystem.
• 🧠 Cloud and Local LLMs — explORE-AI is mainly developed and tested with GPT variants, however other models supported by aider may work.

Getting Started with explORE-AI

Follow the instructions below to clone, install, and use explORE-AI effectively.

Directory Structure

Ensure your directory is structured correctly for explORE-AI to function properly:

root/
├── Engine/
└── explORE-AI/

This layout enables explORE-AI to locate the ORE directory correctly.

Cloning the Repository

Clone the explORE-AI repository into the root directory using the following command:

git clone https://github.com/Devin-Cook/explORE-AI.git

Installation

Navigate to your root directory (containing both the Engine and explORE-AI directories) and install explORE-AI by running:

python -m pip install ./explORE-AI

Usage

After installation, you can interact with explORE-AI in several ways:

1. Command-Line Interaction

To start the chat via command-line mode, use:

explore-ai --openai-api-key=OPENAPI_KEY

Replace OPENAPI_KEY with your actual OpenAI API key.

2. GUI Mode

To launch the graphical user interface (GUI) via Streamlit, execute:

explore-ai --openai-api-key=OPENAPI_KEY --gui

3. GUI with Userguide Materials

To initialize the GUI along with the Userguide materials, run:

explore-ai --openai-api-key=OPENAPI_KEY --userguide --gui

Additional Notes

• Ensure you are in the root directory containing both Engine and explORE-AI when running installation and other commands.
• Verify the validity of your OpenAI API key.
• If you encounter any issues, confirm your directory structure and dependencies installation.
