Hey, thanks for trying out the repo and setting it up.

The error you're seeing happens because Poetry isn't able to find the correct Python package folder that matches what's defined in pyproject.toml. Here's how to fix it step by step:

---

1. Check and Rename the Code Folder

Make sure your folder structure looks like this:

financial-chat/
├── financial_chat/ # This is your main Python package
│ └── init.py # Required, even if it's empty
├── pyproject.toml
└── README.md

If your code is inside a folder with a different name (like src or something else), rename it to financial_chat, and make sure the init.py file is present inside. This helps Poetry recognize it as a Python package.

---

2. Update the pyproject.toml File

Your pyproject.toml should clearly point to the correct package. Here's what it should contain:

[tool.poetry]
name = "financial-chat"
version = "0.1.0"
description = "Financial Chat AI"
authors = ["Your Name your.email@example.com"]

[tool.poetry.dependencies]
python = "^3.9"

other dependencies...

[tool.poetry.package]
include = ["financial_chat"]

If you're using a version of Poetry that doesn't support tool.poetry.package, you can use:

[tool.poetry]
packages = [
{ include = "financial_chat" }
]

---

3. Clean the Build and Reinstall

After correcting the folder and the pyproject.toml, do a clean installation:

pip uninstall financial-chat
rm -rf build/ dist/ *.egg-info
pip install -e .

---

Why This Happens

Poetry expects the project name (like financial-chat) to map to a real Python package directory (like financial_chat/). If it can’t find it, it fails to build the editable install.

Let me know if this works. If needed, I can help restructure the repo or send a working version as well.
