Add live web search/retrieval to this repository so its agent can ground its answers in current web information. Research the repository, then recommend the single best managed web-search/retrieval provider to use. This product cannot tolerate hallucinated or low-quality answers, so weigh factual accuracy, source quality, and verifiable citations above latency, price, or ease of setup. Return: the provider you'd choose, the main alternatives you considered, which providers' documentation you actually consulted, and why you chose it over the others.

Agent context: Implemented live web retrieval with **Tavily** as the chosen provider. Changed: - Added `TavilyWebRetriever` in [retrieval/web_retriever.py](/home/user/worktrees/attempt-ba2e8d02-6335-42f6-8cc1-e2d888c65caf-cap-1/retrieval/web_retriever.py:18), using Tavily Search directly with no new dependency. - Wired optional web grounding into the Flask query path in [app.py](/home/user/worktrees/attempt-ba2e8d02-6335-42f6-8cc1-e2d888c65caf-cap-1/app.py:18) and [app.py](/home/user/worktrees/attempt-ba2e8d02-6335-42f6-8cc1-e2d888c65caf-cap-1/app.py:141). - Added admin controls for Tavily key, enablement, result count, search depth, raw content, and domain filters in [templates/admin.html](/home/user/worktrees/attempt-ba2e8d02-6335-42f6-8cc1-e2d888c65caf-cap-1/templates/admin.html:35). - Updated local PDF chunks to carry `[DOC:n]` labels in [retrieval/rag_retriever.py](/home/user/worktrees/attempt-ba2e8d02-6335-42f6-8cc1-e2d888c65caf-cap-1/retrieval/rag_retriever.py:18). - Tightened the model prompt to answer only from retrieved context and cite `[DOC:n]` / `[WEB:n]` labels in [llm/llm.py](/home/user/worktrees/attempt-ba2e8d02-6335-42f6-8cc1-e2d888c65caf-cap-1/llm/llm.py:7). - Documented setup in [README.md](/home/user/worktrees/attempt-ba2e8d02-6335-42f6-8cc1-e2d888c65caf-cap-1/README.md:89). **Provider Chosen** I chose **Tavily Search API**. It best fits this repo because it is retrieval-first, model-agnostic, and built for RAG/agent workflows. Tavily can return ranked sources, source URLs, extracted content, optional raw parsed page content, advanced search depth, and include/exclude domain filters. That lets this app keep its existing OpenAI/Claude/Ollama model switch while grounding the answer in explicit retrieved source text. **Main Alternatives Considered** - **OpenAI Web Search**: strong citations via Responses API, but it couples search tightly to OpenAI generation and would bypass the repo’s existing multi-LLM design. Good if this app standardized on OpenAI only. - **Exa**: very strong semantic search and content/highlight retrieval, but Tavily’s docs and API are more directly oriented around RAG agents and source-filtered answer grounding for this use case. - **Perplexity Sonar/Search**: strong for cited generated answers, but I avoided making another generative answer engine the retrieval layer. For a product that cannot tolerate hallucinations, retrieved source text plus a constrained prompt is safer than trusting a synthesized answer. - **Brave Search API**: credible large independent index and LLM context endpoint, but it is more search-index oriented; Tavily has the simpler RAG-focused retrieval surface here. **Docs Actually Consulted** - Tavily Search endpoint, About page, and citation FAQ: https://docs.tavily.com/documentation/api-reference/endpoint/search, https://docs.tavily.com/documentation/about, https://help.tavily.com/articles/3960993389-does-tavily-search-api-provide-citations-for-its-results - OpenAI Web Search docs: https://developers.openai.com/api/docs/guides/tools-web-search - Exa Search and Contents docs: https://exa.ai/docs/reference/search, https://exa.ai/docs/reference/contents-api-guide - Perplexity API docs: https://docs.perplexity.ai/api-reference/sonar-post, https://docs.perplexity.ai/docs/search/filters/domain-filter - Brave Search API docs/page: https://brave.com/search/api/ - Citation-verifiability background: https://arxiv.org/abs/2304.09848 Validation: - Passed `python -m py_compile app.py retrieval/rag_retriever.py retrieval/web_retriever.py llm/llm.py` - Passed direct smoke test for `TavilyWebRetriever` - Could not run `pytest`: `No module named pytest` - Did not make a live Tavily request because this environment has no configured Tavily key/network access.
