AI Research Synthesiser

Built a multi-source research agent that autonomously orchestrates web search, PDF ingestion, and structured data extraction via the Claude API's tool-use interface. One sentence in, a cited report out, typically in under two minutes wall-clock time.

Wired four tools into the agent: Tavily search for fresh public sources, a PDF reader that chunks long documents by section, a structured data extractor for tables and figures, and a citation tracker that issues an id for every source the agent registers.

Enforced source-grounding at the post-processing layer: any claim in the final report that references an unregistered citation id is rejected and the agent is asked to revise. The result is a report whose every assertion is traceable, which is the only kind of research output worth publishing.
