ChatGPT Retrieval Plugin
The ChatGPT Retrieval Plugin lets you easily find personal documents
The chatgpt-retrieval-plugin repository implements a semantic retrieval backend that lets ChatGPT (or GPT-powered tools) access private or organizational documents in natural language by combining vector search, embedding models, and plugin infrastructure. It can serve as a custom GPT plugin or function-calling backend so that a chat session can “look up” relevant documents based on user queries, inject those results into context, and respond more knowledgeably about a private knowledge base. The repo provides code for ingestion pipelines (embedding documents), APIs for querying, local server components, and privacy / PII detection modules. It also contains plugin manifest files (OpenAPI spec, plugin JSON) so that the retrieval backend can be registered in a plugin ecosystem. Because retrieval is often needed to make LLMs “know what’s in your docs” without leaking everything, this plugin aims to be a secure, flexible building block for retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) systems. -

Controllable-RAG-Agent
This repository provides an advanced RAG
Controllable-RAG-Agent is an advanced Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) system designed specifically for complex, multi-step question answering over your own documents. Instead of relying solely on simple semantic search, it builds a deterministic control graph that acts as the “brain” of the agent, orchestrating planning, retrieval, reasoning, and verification across many steps. The pipeline ingests PDFs, splits them into chapters, cleans and preprocesses text, then constructs vector stores for fine-grained chunks, chapter summaries, and book quotes to support nuanced queries. At query time, it anonymizes entities, creates a high-level plan, de-anonymizes and expands that plan into concrete retrieval or reasoning tasks, and executes them in sequence while continuously revising the plan. A key focus is hallucination control: each answer is verified against retrieved context, and responses are reworked when they are not sufficiently grounded in the source documents. -
