Husky Help

AI-powered IT support assistant for UConn students — chat, classify, escalate

A student-facing IT helpdesk that answers common UConn ITS questions, classifies what it cannot answer, and opens a real ticket on the student's behalf. Vite + React on the front, Appwrite cloud functions and OpenRouter on the back.

  1. OpenRouter chat proxy via an Appwrite cloud function — no model keys ever touch the browser.
  2. Appwrite-managed auth, sessions, and message history; demo account for unauthenticated tire-kickers.
  3. Server-side classifier decides when a chat thread should escalate into a real ITS ticket.
  4. Tickets opened directly from the conversation context — agents see the full transcript, not a summary.

TODO — refine this paragraph: a single-page operations site for an independent dealership. Live inventory feeds the public storefront, the sales concierge, and the manager workflows from one source of truth. AI copy, lead routing, and pricing assistance run server-side.

  1. TODO — refine: single live inventory feeds three working surfaces (storefront, sales concierge, manager workflows).
  2. TODO — refine: AI-assisted listing copy and pricing suggestions, scoped per-vehicle and human-reviewable.
  3. TODO — refine: sales concierge chat that answers buyer questions from the actual lot, not a generic FAQ.
  4. TODO — refine: 90-day roadmap surface that turns aging inventory data into prioritized actions for the manager.
