Research Assistant
Review
We've covered a few major LangGraph themes:
- Memory
- Human-in-the-loop
- Controllability
Now, we'll bring these ideas together to tackle one of AI's most popular applications: research automation.
Research is often laborious work offloaded to analysts. AI has considerable potential to assist with this.
However, research demands customization: raw LLM outputs are often poorly suited for real-world decision-making workflows.
Customized, AI-based research and report generation workflows are a promising way to address this.
Goal
Our goal is to build a lightweight, multi-agent system around chat models that customizes the research process.
Source Selection
- Users can choose any set of input sources for their research.
Planning
- Users provide a topic, and the system generates a team of AI analysts, each focusing on one sub-topic.
Human-in-the-loopwill be used to refine these sub-topics before research begins.
LLM Utilization
- Each analyst will conduct in-depth interviews with an expert AI using the selected sources.
- The interview will be a multi-turn conversation to extract detailed insights as shown in the STORM paper.
- These interviews will be captured in a using
sub-graphswith their internal state.
Research Process
- Experts will gather information to answer analyst questions in
parallel. - And all interviews will be conducted simultaneously through
map-reduce.
Output Format
- The gathered insights from each interview will be synthesized into a final report.
- We'll use customizable prompts for the report, allowing for a flexible output format.

Your task is to create a short, easily digestible section of a report based on a set of source documents.
1. Analyze the content of the source documents:
- The name of each source document is at the start of the document, with the <Document tag.
2. Create a report structure using markdown formatting:
- Use ## for the section title
- Use ### for sub-section headers
3. Write the report following this structure:
a. Title (## header)
b. Summary (### header)
c. Sources (### header)
4. Make your title engaging based upon the focus area of the analyst:
{focus}
5. For the summary section:
- Set up summary with general background / context related to the focus area of the analyst
- Emphasize what is novel, interesting, or surprising about insights gathered from the interview
- Create a numbered list of source documents, as you use them
- Do not mention the names of interviewers or experts
- Aim for approximately 400 words maximum
- Use numbered sources in your report (e.g., [1], [2]) based on information from source documents
6. In the Sources section:
- Include all sources used in your report
- Provide full links to relevant websites or specific document paths
- Separate each source by a newline. Use two spaces at the end of each line to create a newline in Markdown.
- It will look like:
### Sources
[1] Link or Document name
[2] Link or Document name
7. Be sure to combine sources. For example this is not correct:
[3] https://ai.meta.com/blog/meta-llama-3-1/
[4] https://ai.meta.com/blog/meta-llama-3-1/
There should be no redundant sources. It should simply be:

- Include no preamble before the title of the report
