🎯 Use Cases
Medical Knowledge Assistant
# User: "I need information about diabetes"
# Intent: medical_query
# Entities: {"CONDITION": "diabetes"}
# → Routes to Medical Agent
Compliance Assistant
# User: "Tell me about HIPAA requirements"
# Intent: compliance_query
# Entities: {"REGULATION": "HIPAA"}
# → Routes to Compliance Agent
IT Support
# User: "I can't log into my account"
# Intent: it_support
# Entities: {"ISSUE_TYPE": "login"}
# → Routes to IT Support Agent
🔌 Integration Guide
Step 1: Install Dependencies
pip install -r requirements_chatbot.txt
Step 2: Add to Your API
# In apps/api/main.py
from apps.api.chatbot_api import router as chatbot_router
app.include_router(chatbot_router)
Step 3: Test
curl -X POST "http://localhost:8000/chatbot/message" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"message": "Hello!", "user_id": "test"}'

📚 Examples
Basic Usage
from packages.conversational import IntentRecognizer
recognizer = IntentRecognizer()
result = recognizer.recognize("I need medical help")
print(f"Intent: {result.intent}")
print(f"Confidence: {result.confidence:.2%}")
With Dialogue Management
from packages.conversational import DialogueManager
manager = DialogueManager()
context = manager.start_conversation("user123")
action = manager.process_message(
context,
text="I need to see a doctor",
intent="medical_query"
)
print(f"Response: {action.message}")
