The story

What the video said

This open source GitHub project turns a pile of documents into a knowledge graph you can question. It reads your files, finds the people and places inside, and links them together. You already loaded your notes into a chat tool and asked it something. The answer missed a link between two names. You want to ask again and get the full picture this time. LightRAG is an open source library and server for this. It stores your text as a graph and as vectors, then searches both when you ask a question. The project page shows a graph viewer in its web app. You can see your documents drawn as linked nodes, and you can pick a search mode like local or global. It is free and open source, so you can run it on your own machine. Would you use this workflow to search your own documents?
