The goal of this repo is to provide the simplest implementation of a deep research agent - e.g. an agent that can refine its research direction over time and deep dive into a topic. Goal is to keep the repo size at <500 LoC so it is easy to understand and build on top of. If you like this project, please consider starring it and giving me a follow on [X/Twitter](https://x.com/dzhng). This project is sponsored by [Aomni](https://aomni.com). ## How It Works ```mermaid flowchart TB subgraph Input Q[User Query] B[Breadth Parameter] D[Depth Parameter] end DR[Deep Research] --> SQ[SERP Queries] --> PR[Process Results] subgraph Results[Results] direction TB NL((Learnings)) ND((Directions)) end PR --> NL PR --> ND DP{depth > 0?} RD["Next Direction: - Prior Goals - New Questions - Learnings"] MR[Markdown Report] %% Main Flow Q & B & D --> DR %% Results to Decision NL & ND --> DP %% Circular Flow DP -->|Yes| RD RD -->|New Context| DR %% Final Output DP -->|No| MR %% Styling classDef input fill:#7bed9f,stroke:#2ed573,color:black classDef process fill:#70a1ff,stroke:#1e90ff,color:black classDef recursive fill:#ffa502,stroke:#ff7f50,color:black classDef output fill:#ff4757,stroke:#ff6b81,color:black classDef results fill:#a8e6cf,stroke:#3b7a57,color:black class Q,B,D input class DR,SQ,PR process class DP,RD recursive class MR output class NL,ND results ``` ## Features - **Iterative Research**: Performs deep research by iteratively generating search queries, processing results, and diving deeper based on findings - **Intelligent Query Generation**: Uses LLMs to generate targeted search queries based on research goals and previous findings - **Depth & Breadth Control**: Configurable parameters to control how wide (breadth) and deep (depth) the research goes - **Smart Follow-up**: Generates follow-up questions to better understand research needs - **Comprehensive Reports**: Produces detailed markdown reports with findings and sources - **Concurrent Processing**: Handles multiple searches and result processing in parallel for efficiency ## Requirements - Node.js environment - API keys for: - Firecrawl API (for web search and content extraction) - OpenAI API (for o3 mini model) ## Setup ### Node.js 1. Clone the repository 2. Install dependencies: ```bash npm install ``` 3. Set up environment variables in a `.env.local` file: ```bash FIRECRAWL_KEY="your_firecrawl_key" # If you want to use your self-hosted Firecrawl, add the following below: # FIRECRAWL_BASE_URL="http://localhost:3002" OPENAI_KEY="your_openai_key" ``` To use local LLM, comment out `OPENAI_KEY` and instead uncomment `OPENAI_ENDPOINT` and `OPENAI_MODEL`: - Set `OPENAI_ENDPOINT` to the address of your local server (eg."http://localhost:1234/v1") - Set `OPENAI_MODEL` to the name of the model loaded in your local server. ### Docker 1. Clone the repository 2. Rename `.env.example` to `.env.local` and set your API keys 3. Run `docker build -f Dockerfile` 4. Run the Docker image: ```bash docker compose up -d ``` 5. Execute `npm run docker` in the docker service: ```bash docker exec -it deep-research npm run docker ``` ## Usage Run the research assistant: ```bash npm start ``` You'll be prompted to: 1. Enter your research query 2. Specify research breadth (recommended: 3-10, default: 4) 3. Specify research depth (recommended: 1-5, default: 2) 4. Answer follow-up questions to refine the research direction The system will then: 1. Generate and execute search queries 2. Process and analyze search results 3. Recursively explore deeper based on findings 4. Generate a comprehensive markdown report The final report will be saved as `report.md` or `answer.md` in your working directory, depending on which modes you selected. ### Concurrency If you have a paid version of Firecrawl or a local version, feel free to increase the `ConcurrencyLimit` by setting the `CONCURRENCY_LIMIT` environment variable so it runs faster. If you have a free version, you may sometimes run into rate limit errors, you can reduce the limit to 1 (but it will run a lot slower). ### DeepSeek R1 Deep research performs great on R1! We use [Fireworks](http://fireworks.ai) as the main provider for the R1 model. To use R1, simply set a Fireworks API key: ```bash FIREWORKS_KEY="api_key" ``` The system will automatically switch over to use R1 instead of `o3-mini` when the key is detected. ### Custom endpoints and models There are 2 other optional env vars that lets you tweak the endpoint (for other OpenAI compatible APIs like OpenRouter or Gemini) as well as the model string. ```bash OPENAI_ENDPOINT="custom_endpoint" CUSTOM_MODEL="custom_model" ``` ## How It Works 1. **Initial Setup** - Takes user query and research parameters (breadth & depth) - Generates follow-up questions to understand research needs better 2. **Deep Research Process** - Generates multiple SERP queries based on research goals - Processes search results to extract key learnings - Generates follow-up research directions 3. **Recursive Exploration** - If depth > 0, takes new research directions and continues exploration - Each iteration builds on previous learnings - Maintains context of research goals and findings 4. **Report Generation** - Compiles all findings into a comprehensive markdown report - Includes all sources and references - Organizes information in a clear, readable format ## Community implementations **Python**: https://github.com/Finance-LLMs/deep-research-python ## License MIT License - feel free to use and modify as needed. ================================================ FILE: docker-compose.yml ================================================ services: deep-research: container_name: deep-research build: . env_file: - .env.local volumes: - ./:/app/ tty: true stdin_open: true ================================================ FILE: package.json ================================================ { "name": "open-deep-research", "version": "0.0.1", "main": "index.ts", "scripts": { "format": "prettier --write \"src/**/*.{ts,tsx}\"", "tsx": "tsx --env-file=.env.local", "start": "tsx --env-file=.env.local src/run.ts", "api": "tsx --env-file=.env.local src/api.ts", "docker": "tsx src/run.ts", "test": "echo \"Error: no test specified\" && exit 1" }, "author": "", "license": "ISC", "description": "", "devDependencies": { "@ianvs/prettier-plugin-sort-imports": "^4.4.1", "@types/cors": "^2.8.17", "@types/express": "^4.17.21", "@types/lodash-es": "^4.17.12", "@types/node": "^22.13.0", "@types/uuid": "^9.0.8", "prettier": "^3.4.2", "tsx": "^4.19.2", "typescript": "^5.7.3" }, "dependencies": { "@ai-sdk/fireworks": "^0.1.14", "@ai-sdk/openai": "^1.1.9", "@mendable/firecrawl-js": "^1.16.0", "ai": "^4.1.17", "cors": "^2.8.5", "express": "^4.18.3", "js-tiktoken": "^1.0.17", "lodash-es": "^4.17.21", "p-limit": "^6.2.0", "uuid": "^9.0.1", "zod": "^3.24.1" }, "engines": { "node": "22.x" } } ================================================ FILE: prettier.config.mjs ================================================ /** @type {import('prettier').Config} */ export default { endOfLine: 'lf', semi: true, useTabs: false, singleQuote: true, arrowParens: 'avoid', tabWidth: 2, trailingComma: 'all', importOrder: [ '^(react/(.*)$)|^(react$)', '^(next/(.*)$)|^(next$)', '', '', '@repo/(.*)$', '', '^@/(.*)$', '', '^[./]', ], importOrderParserPlugins: ['typescript', 'jsx'], importOrderTypeScriptVersion: '5.7.2', plugins: ['@ianvs/prettier-plugin-sort-imports'], }; ================================================ FILE: src/ai/providers.ts ================================================ import { createFireworks } from '@ai-sdk/fireworks'; import { createOpenAI } from '@ai-sdk/openai'; import { extractReasoningMiddleware, LanguageModelV1, wrapLanguageModel, } from 'ai'; import { getEncoding } from 'js-tiktoken'; import { RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter } from './text-splitter'; // Providers const openai = process.env.OPENAI_KEY ?
