+# Text Extractor CLI
+
+## Overview
+
+This project provides a command‑line tool that extracts structured data from free‑form text using **LangChain** and **Pydantic**. It supports two schemas:
+
+1. **PersonInfo** – name, age, profession, skills.
+2. **MeetingNotes** – title, date, participants, agenda.
+
+The tool automatically detects which schema to use based on the input text.
+
+## Installation
+
+```bash
+# Create a virtual environment
+python -m venv .venv
+source .venv/bin/activate  # On Windows use .venv\Scripts\activate
+
+# Install dependencies
+pip install -r requirements.txt
+```
+
+## Environment variables
+
+The tool uses OpenAI’s API. Create a `.env` file in the project root with the following variables:
+
+```
+OPENAI_API_KEY=your_api_key_here
+OPENAI_MODEL=gpt-3.5-turbo   # optional, defaults to gpt-3.5-turbo
+OPENAI_BASE_URL=               # optional, for local LLMs (e.g. http://localhost:11434/v1)
+```
+
+If you are using a local model (Ollama/LM Studio) provide the `OPENAI_BASE_URL` and set `OPENAI_API_KEY` to any non‑empty string (e.g. `ollama`).
+
+## Usage
+
+```bash
+# Pass text as a command‑line argument
+python agent.py "Anna, 28 years old, Python developer. Skills: FastAPI, Docker."
+
+# Or pipe text via stdin
+cat <<EOF | python agent.py
+Meeting: Sprint Planning
+Date: 2024-06-01
+Participants: Alice, Bob, Charlie
+Agenda: Review backlog, assign tasks, estimate effort
+EOF
+```
+
+### Output
+
+The tool prints two sections:
+
+1. **JSON** – a pretty‑printed JSON representation of the Pydantic model.
+2. **Summary** – a human‑readable summary of the key fields.
+
+Example output for a person:
+
+```json
+{
+  "name": "Anna",
+  "age": 28,
+  "profession": "Python developer",
+  "skills": [
+    "FastAPI",
+    "Docker"
+  ]
+}
+
+Summary:
+Anna, 28 years old, works as Python developer.
+Skills: FastAPI, Docker.
+```
+
+## Extending
+
+To add a new schema:
+1. Define a new `Pydantic` model.
+2. Create a prompt and parser similar to the existing ones.
+3. Update the `detect_schema` logic or add a new classifier.
