AI Integration with Specific External Sites and GitHub

I am supervising a feature upgrade for a large global hardware manufacture Discourse site. The target audience are software developers. The Discourse site has a ton of information on it since around 2016.

Interns have implemented these LLMs

  • Claude 3.5 Sonnet
  • Gemini 1.5 Flash
  • GPT-4 Omni

They have also enabled Google Custom Search and AI Bot GitHub access token.

I am struggling with my supervision responsibilities because I do not understand the AI functionality and terminology. I have some understanding of the customer requirements to provide the interns direction.

The customer has the official API documentation, examples, and documentation on two places:

  1. GitHub - github.com/companyname
  2. docs.companyname.com

I want the AI to search through and prefer external information from these two sites and combine them with the vast information on our own forum. Is this possible?

The Discourse forum has a larger volume of information and possibly more useful. However, the two external sites above have more accurate and official information, possibly more recently updated official SDKs and API documentation.

The two interns are computer science undergraduate students at US schools.

I have another request for proposal from an even larger global hardware company for a software developer portal where the AI might be a nice value-add.

Yes, there are multiple ways of doing this

  1. On a regular basis grab all the external info , place it in a text file and upload it as a document to a persona or tool
  2. Custom tool to grab information directly from external sources

I recommend pointing your interns here and having them share the approaches they tries so we can help them

At the enterprise hosting level this is the kind of integrations we would consult and take care of
