Clone the Repository\n\n```bash\ngit clone https://github.com/aniketraut16/instacheck.git\ncd instacheck\n```\n\n### 2. Configure Settings\n\nEdit the `core/config.py` file:\n\n```python\nfrom dotenv import load_dotenv\nimport os\n\nload_dotenv()\n\nclass LLMSettings:\n    provider: str = \"ollama\" # ollama or groq\n    api_key: str = os.getenv(\"GROQ_API_KEY\") if provider == \"groq\" else None\n\nllm_settings = LLMSettings()\n```\n\nSet `provider` as **ollama** or **groq**:\n\n* **If using Ollama:**\n\n  * Install Ollama: [https://ollama.com/download](https://ollama.com/download)\n  * Pull the GPT-OSS model:\n\n    ```bash\n    ollama pull gpt-oss:20b\n    ```\n  * Verify installation by running a test prompt in Ollama.\n\n* **If using Groq:**\n\n  * Generate an API key from [Groq Console](https://console.groq.com/).\n  * Create a `.env` file in the project root and add:\n\n    ```env\n    GROQ_API_KEY=\"\u003cyour_key\u003e\"\n    ```\n\n### 3. Run with Docker\n\nMake sure **Docker** is installed.\n\n* First-time build:\n\n  ```bash\n  docker compose -f docker-compose.dev.yml up --build\n  ```\n* Subsequent runs:\n\n  ```bash\n  docker compose -f docker-compose.dev.yml up\n  ```\n\n⏳ This may take **5–10 minutes** on the first build. Once done, the server will be running.\n\n### 4. Load Chrome Extension\n\n* Open **Chrome → Extensions → Manage Extensions**.\n* Enable **Developer Mode**.\n* Click **Load unpacked** and select the `extension` folder from the repo.\n* The extension will now be ready to use! 🎉\n\n---\n\n## How to Contribute\n\nWe welcome contributions! 🚀\n\n1. Fork the repository.\n2. Create a feature branch:\n\n   ```bash\n   git checkout -b feature-name\n   ```\n3. Commit your changes and push:\n\n   ```bash\n   git push origin feature-name\n   ```\n4. Submit a pull request.\n\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Faniketraut16%2Finstacheck","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Faniketraut16%2Finstacheck","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Faniketraut16%2Finstacheck/lists"}
