Deep Research

An AI-powered research assistant that performs iterative, deep research on any topic by combining search engines, web scraping, and large language models. 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 overtime and deep dive into a topic.

Overview

<div align="center"> <img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/liustack/modsearch/main/assets/banner.jpg" width="100%" alt="ModSearch, plug-in web search and page fetch for text-only LLMs" /> <h1>ModSearch</h1> <p><b>Free plug-in web search for your text-only LLM.</b></p> <p> <a href="https://www.npmjs.com/package/@liustack/modsearch"><img src="https://img.shields.io/npm/v/@liustack/modsearch" alt="npm"></a> <a href="LICENSE"><img src="https://img.shields.io/badge/license-MIT-blue.svg" alt="License"></a> </p> <p><a href="./README.zh-CN.md">简体中文</a></p> </div>

DeepSeek-V4-Flash gives you a lot of model for very little money: fast and strong, but its built-in web search is weak, and most third-party gateways ship no search at all. A model that cannot look things up or read a web page is a real handicap these days.

ModSearch fixes this with a completely free setup. It never touches your config and never adds a local proxy. It's just a search-engine plug-in, usable as a CLI or as an Agent Skill, that returns structured web search results and can parse pages too. Under the hood it runs on [Antigravity CLI](https://antigravity.google) (`agy`), whose search comes from free-quota Google Search. And Google Search is, without much argument, the best search engine on earth. How it works:

```text your text-only model ──▶ modsearch skill (auto-triggers on fresh-info needs) │ ┌─────────┴─────────┐ ▼ ▼ -q "query" -u <url> web search page fetch └─────────┬─────────┘ ▼ agy · Gemini 3.6 Flash (free quota) │ ▼ structured JSON evidence ──▶ model answers with sources ```

Install the skill once and your agent starts searching and reading the web on its own. No model swap, no API key, no
