Challenges

While building Repo Lens, I encountered several challenges. Implementing the tool's call functionality was difficult, as I needed to use the LLaMA model for API calls from user prompts and make another AI model context-aware to analyze code and provide accurate responses. Managing efficient workflow and crafting the right prompts within the application were also challenging. Additionally, handling authentication and session management using GitHub OAuth, along with maintaining memory and chat history, required careful attention. I used Streamlit for rapid development and a good UI/UX, and Groq APIs for faster interactions.
