SEEKER AI
A local research assistant that performs iterative, deep-dive investigations using search engines, web scraping, and LLMs. Combines breadth-first exploration with depth-first analysis for comprehensive topic coverage.
### Clariciation of Search Intent
### Research Process
### End of Task
## Features
- **Iterative Research** - Self-refining research direction based on initial findings
- **Follow-up Question System** - Clarifies research goals through interactive dialogue
- **Configurable Parameters** - Control research breadth (3-10) and depth (1-5)
- **Multi-format Output** - Generates detailed reports or concise answers
- **LLM Agnostic** - Supports OpenAI, Fireworks.ai, and local LLMs via custom endpoints
- **Concurrent Processing** - Parallelizes research tasks for faster results
## Quick Start 🚀
### Prerequisites
- Node.js v18+
- API keys for:
- [Firecrawl](https://firecrawl.dev/) (web scraping)
- [OpenAI](https://openai.com/) or [Fireworks.ai](https://fireworks.ai/)
```bash
# Clone repository
git clone https://github.com/iBz-04/Seeker.git
cd Seeker
# Install dependencies
npm install
# Configure environment
cp .env.example .env.local
# Edit .env.local with your API keys
```
### Basic Usage
```bash
npm start
? What would you like to research? Effects of climate change on coffee production
? Research breadth (3-10): 5
? Research depth (1-5): 2
```
## Advanced Configuration ⚙️
### Environment Variables
```ini
# Required
FIRECRAWL_API_KEY="your_firecrawl_key"
OPENAI_API_KEY="your_openai_key" # OR
FIREWORKS_API_KEY="your_fireworks_key"
# Optional
RESEARCH_CONCURRENCY=5 # Parallel requests
MAX_TOKENS=4096 # LLM context window
```
### Docker Deployment
```bash
docker compose up -d --build
docker exec -it deep-research npm run docker
```
## Research Process Flow 🔄
1. **Initial Query Analysis**
- Parse user's research question
- Generate clarifying follow-up questions
- Collect additional context through interactive Q&A
2. **Search Strategy Development**
- Generate multiple search queries based on research goals
- Prioritize queries using relevance scoring
- Execute parallel web searches using Firecrawl
3. **Content Analysis**
- Extract key insights from web content
- Maintain context-aware knowledge graph
- Identify promising research directions for deep-dive
4. **Recursive Exploration**
- Repeat search/analysis process at specified depth
- Prune irrelevant branches
- Merge findings across iterations
5. **Report Generation**
- Synthesize findings into structured markdown
- Include sources and confidence ratings
- Generate both technical and executive summaries
## Customization Options 🛠️
### Adjust Research Parameters
```typescript
// deep-research.ts
const config = {
maxConcurrency: 5, // Parallel requests
minRelevanceScore: 0.7, // Content filtering threshold
maxPagesPerQuery: 10, // Resource limits
timeout: 30000 // Per-request timeout
};
```
### Supported LLM Providers
```ini
# Local AI
OPENAI_BASE_URL="http://localhost:1234/v1"
OPENAI_MODEL="your-local-model"
# OpenRouter
OPENAI_BASE_URL="https://openrouter.ai/api/v1"
OPENAI_MODEL="anthropic/claude-3-haiku"
```
## Example Output 📄
```markdown
# Research Report: Climate Change Impact on Coffee Production
## Key Findings
- **Yield Reductions**: 50% projected decrease in suitable growing areas by 2050
- **Quality Impacts**: Increased temperatures correlate with flavor profile degradation
- **Economic Costs**: $2.5B annual losses anticipated in major producing regions
## Recommended Actions
1. Develop heat-resistant coffee cultivars
2. Implement agroforestry practices
3. Diversify geographic production areas
## Sources
1. [Journal of Agricultural Science] (https://example.com/source1)
2. [FAO Climate Report] (https://example.com/source2)
```
## Troubleshooting ⚠️
**Common Issues:**
- Rate Limiting: Reduce `RESEARCH_CONCURRENCY` in free tier
- Timeouts: Increase `TIMEOUT` duration for complex queries
- Relevance Filtering: Adjust `MIN_RELEVANCE_SCORE` for sensitive content
