DeepLearning.AI Agentic Research Agent

Skill by ara.so — AI Agent Skills collection.

A FastAPI-based research agent service that orchestrates multi-step research workflows using planning agents, tool-using agents (Tavily, arXiv, Wikipedia), and Postgres for task state management. The system breaks down research queries into planned steps, executes them with specialized agents (researcher, writer, editor), and tracks progress in real-time.

What This Project Does

• Multi-Agent Research Pipeline: Planner agent creates workflow → Research agent gathers data → Writer agent drafts → Editor agent refines
• Tool Integration: Tavily web search, arXiv academic papers, Wikipedia knowledge base
• Task Management: Postgres-backed task tracking with live progress updates
• REST API: FastAPI endpoints for kicking off research, polling progress, retrieving results
• Single-Container Deploy: Runs Postgres + FastAPI in one Docker container for local development
