# 📰 AI News Research Assistant

An intelligent AI-powered news research assistant built with Gradio that provides real-time news search, article fetching, and comprehensive summaries using GPT-OSS models.

## ✨ Features

- **Real-time News Search**: Access current headlines from Google News RSS feeds
- **Topic-specific Research**: Search for news on specific subjects, companies, or events
- **Site-restricted Search**: Limit searches to specific news domains
- **Article Content Extraction**: Download and analyze full article content when needed
- **AI-powered Summaries**: Get intelligent news summaries with proper citations
- **Multiple Model Support**: Choose between GPT-OSS 120B and 20B models
- **Modern Web Interface**: Clean, responsive Gradio-based chat interface
- **Langfuse Integration**: Built-in observability and tracing for interactions

## 🚀 Quick Start

### Prerequisites

- Python 3.8+
- API keys for:
  - Hugging Face (HF_TOKEN)
  - Serper API (SERPER_API_KEY)
  - Langfuse (optional, for observability)

### Installation

1. **Clone the repository**
   ```bash
   git clone <your-repo-url>
   cd agent_gradio_app
   ```

2. **Install dependencies**
   ```bash
   pip install -r requirements.txt
   ```

3. **Set up environment variables**
   ```bash
   # Create .env file
   echo "HF_TOKEN=your_huggingface_token" > .env
   echo "SERPER_API_KEY=your_serper_api_key" >> .env
   echo "LANGFUSE_PUBLIC_KEY=your_langfuse_public_key" >> .env
   echo "LANGFUSE_SECRET_KEY=your_langfuse_secret_key" >> .env
   ```

4. **Run the application**
   ```bash
   python agent_gradio_chat.py
   ```

5. **Open your browser**
   Navigate to `http://localhost:7860`

## 🔧 Configuration

### Available Models

- **GPT-OSS 120B**: Larger, more capable model for complex reasoning tasks
- **GPT-OSS 20B**: Faster, more efficient model for quick responses

### Environment Variables

| Variable | Description | Required |
|----------|-------------|----------|
| `HF_TOKEN` | Hugging Face API token | Yes |
| `SERPER_API_KEY` | Serper API key for web search | Yes |
| `LANGFUSE_PUBLIC_KEY` | Langfuse public key for observability | No |
| `LANGFUSE_SECRET_KEY` | Langfuse secret key for observability | No |

## 💡 Usage Examples

### General News Requests
- "What are the top news stories today?"
- "What's happening in the world right now?"
- "Show me the latest headlines"

### Topic-specific Research
- "What's the latest on artificial intelligence?"
- "Tell me about recent developments in climate change"
- "What's happening with Tesla stock?"

### Site-specific Searches
- "What's the latest climate change news on the BBC?"
- "Show me recent AI articles from MIT Technology Review"
- "What's new on Ars Technica about cybersecurity?"

## 🛠️ How It Works

The application uses a sophisticated agent loop that:

1. **Analyzes User Queries**: Understands the type of news request
2. **Selects Appropriate Tools**: Chooses from available search and fetch tools
3. **Executes Searches**: Performs targeted news searches using various APIs
4. **Extracts Content**: Downloads and processes article content when needed
5. **Synthesizes Information**: Provides comprehensive summaries with citations
6. **Tracks Interactions**: Logs all interactions for observability

### Available Tools

- **`fetch_google_news_rss`**: Get top headlines from Google News
- **`serper_news_search`**: Search for specific topics in Google News
- **`serper_site_search`**: Restrict searches to specific domains
- **`fetch_article`**: Download and extract article content
