FAQ from RAG-MCP Pipeline Research

Why does this project use free models?

Free, open-source models from Hugging Face make the project accessible without financial barriers, offer better educational insight into model internals, ensure privacy (all processing is local), allow easy customization, and transfer skills to any model provider.

How do I get started?

Clone the repository, run python src/setup_environment.py, activate the virtual environment, then start with Module 0 (Prerequisites). Progress through each module and complete the practical exercises.

What are the prerequisites?

A solid foundation in Python, Git/GitHub, Docker, basic machine learning concepts, RESTful APIs, cloud services, and familiarity with transformers, RAG, and prompt engineering. Module 0 covers all of these.

Can I use commercial APIs instead of free models?

Yes, for production applications you may choose commercial APIs for better performance, but the concepts learned in this project apply universally.

Is this project suitable for beginners?

Yes, it features comprehensive step-by-step documentation designed for beginners, with no paid API key requirements and full local execution.
