Civic Agent is an open-source, privacy-first AI system that answers citizen questions about local government services like bin exemptions, housing support, or parking permits using real City Council policies as its knowledge base.
Built with CrewAI, RAG, and Ollama + Phi-3, this project demonstrates a true multi-agent architecture where specialized AI agents collaborate:
→ A Researcher retrieves official documents
→ A Validator checks eligibility rules
→ An Action Guide delivers clear, actionable next steps
All processing runs locally on a free Colab GPU -no external APIs, no data leaks, no cost.
This isn’t just another chatbot. It’s a production-grade agentic system designed for accuracy, transparency, and real-world utility, showcasing end-to-end mastery of modern LLM engineering: from web scraping and vector retrieval to agent orchestration and deployment.
