{ "name": "autonomous-web-research-agent", "version": "1.0.0", "goal": "Autonomously research a given query on the web using multiple search tools and generate a structured report with summary, detailed sections, source tracking, and bias analysis.", "inputs": [ "query (string): the research question or topic to investigate", "tools (list, optional): selected web search/tools to use (e.g., Tavily, Google, NewsAPI, DuckDuckGo)", "api_keys (dict, optional): credentials for LLM and external search APIs", "model_config (dict, optional): LLM provider and parameters" ], "steps": [ "1. Accept user query and optional tool selections.", "2. Initialize agent framework (e.g., LangGraph) with integrated tools: web search (Tavily, Google, DuckDuckGo), news API, web scraping.", "3. Decompose query into sub-questions if needed and iteratively call tools to gather relevant information.", "4. Extract and deduplicate content from retrieved sources, tracking source metadata (URL, tool used).", "5. Use a large language model to synthesize findings into an executive summary and detailed sections.", "6. Analyze potential biases or limitations of gathered sources.", "7. Compile a structured report object (ResearchReport) containing query, summary, sections, sources, biases.", "8. Optionally present report via a UI (e.g., Streamlit) or return as JSON." ], "outputs": [ "ResearchReport (JSON/dict) with fields: query (string), summary (string), sections (list of {heading, content}), sources (list of {url, tool_used, title}), potential_biases (string)", "Optional UI rendering of report with source badges and expandable sections" ], "failure_modes": [ "Missing or invalid API keys causing tool authentication failures", "Rate limits or network errors from search APIs", "Insufficient or low-quality search results leading to incomplete report", "LLM hallucination or mis-summarization despite source tracking", "Parsing errors in HTML/scraped content" ], "confidence": 0.85, "explanation": "The repository implements a generic autonomous web research agent that can be reused for any topical query. The workflow of querying, multi-tool retrieval, synthesis, and structured reporting is not domain-specific and can be extracted as a reusable skill.", "source_repo": "https://github.com/DennisDRX/Faraday-Web-Researcher-Agent.git", "score": 1.0 }
