๐ Code of Conduct Q&A Slack Chatbot with RAG Powered

Empower employees to instantly access and understand the companyโs Code of Conduct via a Slack chatbot, powered by Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) and LLMs.
๐งโ๐ผ Whoโs it for
This workflow is designed for:
- HR and compliance teams to automate policy-related inquiries
- Employees who want quick answers to Code of Conduct questions directly inside Slack
- Startups or enterprises that need internal compliance self-service tools powered by AI
โ๏ธ How it works / What it does
This RAG-powered Slack chatbot answers user questions based on your uploaded Code of Conduct PDF using GPT-4 and embedded document chunks. Here's the flow:
- Receive Message from Slack: A webhook triggers when a message is posted in Slack.
- Check if itโs a valid query: Filters out non-user messages (e.g., bot mentions).
- Run Agent with RAG:
- Uses GPT-4 with
Query Data Tool to retrieve relevant document chunks.
- Returns a well-formatted, context-aware answer.
- Send Response to Slack: Fetches user info and posts the answer back in the same channel.
- Document Upload Flow:
- HR can upload the PDF Code of Conduct file.
- Itโs parsed, chunked, embedded using OpenAI, and stored for future query retrieval.
- A backup copy is saved to Google Drive.
