🧠 What is CLAW ARGUS?

CLAW ARGUS is an enterprise-grade, autonomous AI research agent. It performs multi-layered investigations across the web, cross-validates findings, detects bias, extracts structured entities, and generates professional intelligence reports — all autonomously.

Think of it as your personal 100-eyed research analyst that never sleeps, never gets tired, and processes information from multiple sources simultaneously.

💡 One prompt in → Comprehensive intelligence report out.

✨ Features

🔍 Multi-Engine Search Searches across DuckDuckGo, Wikipedia, and Wikidata simultaneously for maximum coverage 🧬 Entity Extraction Regex-based NER pulls out people, organizations, dates, monetary values, percentages, emails, and URLs 🛡️ Bias Detection Scans for loaded language, hedging, absolutist claims, and emotional manipulation in sources

⚖️ Cross-Validation Jaccard similarity + contradiction detection to verify claims across multiple sources 📊 Deep Analysis Sentiment scoring, bigram extraction, readability metrics, and thematic classification across 6 domains 📋 Report Generation Structured intelligence reports with confidence scoring, risk assessment, and exportable Markdown

🏗️ Infrastructure

• ⚡ In-memory caching with 5-minute TTL — no redundant API calls
• 🔄 Retry with exponential backoff — resilient against transient failures
• 🧩 7 modular tools — each independently testable and extensible
• 📦 Minimal dependencies — only requests

• An OpenAI API key (or any LLM provider)

Installation

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/ARGURAIgent/Claw-Argus.git
cd ARGURAI

# Set your API key
export OPENAI_API_KEY="your-key-here"        # Linux/Mac

🔧 Tools

ARGUS comes equipped with 7 specialized tools the agent invokes autonomously:

#	Tool	Description
1	web_search	Multi-engine search across DuckDuckGo, Wikipedia, and Wikidata with caching
2	fetch_url_content	Deep content extraction with HTML stripping, structural analysis, and deduplication
3	wikipedia_summary	Dedicated Wikipedia deep-dive with categories, metadata, and reliability assessment
4	extract_entities	Regex-based NER: people/orgs, dates, money, percentages, emails, URLs
5	analyze_text	Sentiment + bias detection + bigrams + readability + thematic classification
6	compare_sources	Jaccard similarity, shared/unique terms, contradiction detection
7	generate_report	Structured reports with metadata, risks, recommendations, and Markdown export

📐 Methodology

ARGUS follows the DRIVAS protocol for every research task:

┌─────────────┐     ┌─────────────┐     ┌─────────────┐
│  DECOMPOSE  │────▶│  RESEARCH   │────▶│  IDENTIFY   │
│ Break query │     │ Multi-engine│     │ Extract     │

│ sub-tasks   │     │ deep fetch  │     │ key data    │
└─────────────┘     └─────────────┘     └─────────────┘

└─────────────┘     └─────────────┘     └─────────────┘

Information Quality Hierarchy

Sources are prioritized by reliability:

🟢 Official/government sources    → HIGHEST
🟢 Peer-reviewed/academic         → HIGH
🟡 Established news outlets       → MEDIUM-HIGH
🟡 Wikipedia                      → MEDIUM
🟠 Industry blogs/reports         → MEDIUM
🔴 Social media/forums            → LOW

💼 Use Cases

📈 Market Research & Competitive Intelligence

Analyze competitors, market trends, and emerging opportunities. ARGUS searches 3 engines, extracts entities (companies, revenue, dates), detects bias, cross-validates findings, and generates reports with confidence scoring.

🛡️ Threat Intelligence & OSINT Analysis

Monitor security threats and vulnerabilities from public sources. ARGUS aggregates OSINT data, detects contradictions between sources, assesses reliability, and produces structured threat reports with recommendations.

📚 Academic & Technical Research

Conduct literature reviews and technical deep-dives. ARGUS decomposes research questions, gathers information from authoritative sources, validates findings, and synthesizes structured reports with full source attribution.

📝 Examples

Basic Usage

from argus_agent import argus_agent

# Run a research task
result = argus_agent.run(
    "What are the latest developments in quantum computing? "
    "Who are the key players and what are the risks?"
)

print(result)

Using Individual Tools

from deeprecon_agent import web_search, analyze_text, extract_entities

# Search the web
results = web_search("autonomous AI agents 2025")
print(results)

# Analyze text for sentiment and bias
analysis = analyze_text("The revolutionary AI breakthrough will transform everything...")
print(analysis)

# Extract entities from text
entities = extract_entities("OpenAI raised $6.6 billion in October 2024...")
print(entities)
