Using this with an AI app

Fastest path: search here, hit Find passages → Copy AI prompt, paste into Claude/ChatGPT. For a persistent assistant: in Claude go to Projects → Add content and upload the books you study most (start with the 6 official curriculum volumes under CFA Level II Qbanks → 22. CFA Official Curriculum 2024), then paste prompts from here. PDFs stay on your disk — only this 400 KB index ships with the site, so it stays deployable. Run python3 build_library.py --extract on a machine with pip install pypdf to add page-level passages and citations.
