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
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.

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.

Steps

    1. Accept user query and optional tool selections.
    1. Initialize agent framework (e.g., LangGraph) with integrated tools: web search (Tavily, Google, DuckDuckGo), news API, web scraping.
    1. Decompose query into sub-questions if needed and iteratively call tools to gather relevant information.
    1. Extract and deduplicate content from retrieved sources, tracking source metadata (URL, tool used).
    1. Use a large language model to synthesize findings into an executive summary and detailed sections.
    1. Analyze potential biases or limitations of gathered sources.
    1. Compile a structured report object (ResearchReport) containing query, summary, sections, sources, biases.
    1. Optionally present report via a UI (e.g., Streamlit) or return as JSON.

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

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
