## **What is NoVa?**  

NoVa is not just an AI bot—it is the **digital assistant of Michele Grimaldi**, designed to interact, understand, and respond in **his unique style**.  

It integrates **context awareness, memory retention, web search, and tool execution** using SmolAgents.  



### **Key Capabilities:**  

- **Mimics Michele’s tone**, humor, and expertise.  

- **Remembers previous messages**, making conversations fluid and engaging.  

- **Executes tools** to interact beyond simple text, performing web searches and summarizing texts.  

- **Provides real-time assistance** in AI, backend development, and game audio.  

- **Performs live web searches using SmolAgents.**  



---



## **How NoVa Works**  



### **1️⃣ System Prompt - Core Personality**  

NoVa’s intelligence is structured around a powerful **system prompt** that defines:  

- **Personality:** Friendly, sarcastic, with a dark humor twist.  

- **Knowledge Scope:** AI, backend development, and game audio.  

- **Context Awareness:** Retains and references previous conversations.  

- **Response Style:** Concise, engaging, and always in the user's language.  



#### **System Prompt Structure**  

```plaintext

✔ Always introduce yourself as: "I am NoVa, Michele Grimaldi’s AI assistant."

✔ Maintain a sarcastic, intelligent, and well-placed black humor tone.

✔ Always respond with context, checking previous conversations.

✔ Prioritize accuracy, but if you don’t know something, respond with irony.

✔ If asked about Michele, respond as if you know him well.

✔ Adapt to technical or casual discussions accordingly.

```

### **2️⃣ Memory & Context Retention**  

NoVa **remembers past interactions** by storing the last **5 user messages** for each conversation. This allows it to:  

- Keep the conversation **flowing naturally**.  

- Avoid repetitive responses.  

- Understand **multi-turn interactions**.  



#### **Example of memory retention:**  

```plaintext

User: "I had too many chocolate cookies today."

NoVa: "Ah, the eternal struggle between self-control and sugar... Who won?"

User: "Definitely the cookies..."

NoVa: "Another fallen soldier in the battle against cravings. RIP self-discipline."

```

This makes NoVa feel **more human-like and engaging**.  



- **LAST UPDATES**

A file called **memory_tool.py** has been integrated, this file **has the goal of Automatically storing important information**.

#### **Use a simple database, in this case sqlite.**

**Making the memory more dynamic**, **using a CodeAgent to generate intelligent queries** based on the context of the user's request.

Speeding up the **retrieval of information**, preventing NoVa from always returning generic answers such as "No relevant memories found."

**Optimizing the search system, using a SQL index** and selecting only the most relevant information based on the user's request.



**How the memory system works**

- **SQLite database** → Saves information in nova_memory.db with user_id, timestamp and message.

- **store_memory() function** → Saves a new message for NoVa to remember.

- **forward() function** → Retrieves the most recent information related to the user's query.

- **Using CodeAgent** → Instead of searching for information with fixed queries, CodeAgent generates dynamic queries to find the most relevant information.



**THE FILE HAS CURRENTLY BEEN CREATED, BUT NOT INTEGRATED INTO THE MAIN FILE, bot.py.**

### **3️⃣ Web Search Capability**  

NoVa can now **search the web in real-time** using **SmolAgents** and the **DuckDuckGo API**.  

This allows NoVa to retrieve up-to-date information beyond its pre-trained knowledge.



#### **Example of Web Search Command on Discord:**  

```

!search Best AI frameworks in 2025

```

NoVa will respond with:  

```

🔍 Searching the web for: Best AI frameworks in 2025...

🌐 **Search Results:**

- PyTorch, TensorFlow, AutoGen, MutableAI, LangGraph

```

This feature significantly **expands NoVa's real-time knowledge** for research, coding trends, and AI development.



---



### **4️⃣ Tool Execution & AI Model**  

NoVa now integrates **SmolAgents tools** to execute tasks beyond text generation.  



#### **Supported Tools:**

✔ **SummarizeTextTool** → Summarizes a given text.  

✔ **SearchWebTool** → Performs web searches using DuckDuckGo.  

✔ **VisitWebpageTool** → Fetches and analyzes the content of a given webpage.  



#### **Example of a Summarization Command:**  

```

Summarize this text: Artificial intelligence is transforming businesses worldwide.

```

Response:  

```

📄 **Summary:** Artificial intelligence is transforming businesses...

```

### **5️⃣ AI Model & Language Generation**  

NoVa is powered by **Llama-3.2-3B-Instruct** and **Gemma-2-2B**, **Mixtral-8x7B-Instruct-v0.1** ensuring:  

- High-quality text generation.  

- Strong conversational abilities.  

- A mix of logic and humor in responses.  



#### **AI Processing Flow:**  

1. **User sends a message.**  

2. **NoVa checks the message history** (last 5 messages for context).  

3. **It builds a structured prompt** with the system personality.  

4. **The AI generates a witty, context-aware response.**  

5. **The response is sent back to the user.**
