Full recipe for a web research agent with memory, semantic search, hallucination verification, and source-cited synthesis.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Recipe: Research Agent
## What this builds
A research agent that searches the web, retrieves full page content, deduplicates findings against past research in persistent memory, verifies factual accuracy, and returns a cited summary.
## Skills loaded by this recipe
- `reasoning-strategy-selection` — plan-execute-reflect strategy
- `memory-patterns` — enhanced memory for cross-session recall
- `tool-creation` — allowedTools configuration
- `quality-assurance` — hallucination detection
## Complete implementation
```ts
import { ReactiveAgents } from "@reactive-agents/runtime";
const agent = await ReactiveAgents.create()
.withName("researcher")
.withProvider("anthropic")
.withReasoning({
defaultStrategy: "plan-execute-reflect",
maxIterations: 20,
})
.withTools({
allowedTools: ["web-search", "http-get", "checkpoint", "recall", "final-answer"],
})
.withMemory({
tier: "enhanced",
dbPath: "./memory/research.db",
})
.withVerification({
hallucinationDetection: true,
hallucinationThreshold: 0.15,
passThreshold: 0.75,
})
.withObservability({ verbosity: "normal" })
.withSystemPrompt(`

How to install
mdr add tylerjrbuell/reactive-agents-ts/recipe-research-agent@sha256:261cc7cb747eff75The line at the top of this page pins the label v2.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
