Using chatbot to interact with Large PDF collection

The question…

I am looking to make my large collection of PDF’s for a Table Top RPG interactive. I am very new to programming of any kind but with the help of Codestral I was able to make a functional auto roller using Python and Sqlite.

I’ve become fascinated with generative AI and I am using Ollama and Open WebUI and Backyard.ai to self host.

I created a flow chart of how I think this would work but what I am here for is to be pointed in the right direction of which nodes I’ll have to use to achieve this. There are so many options for things like databases, models, etc. any insights on to which I should use would be appreciated. If anyone knows of a tutorial or tutorials I can watch/read. Thank you in advance for any advice.
