# GAIA Agent with Database Search Integration

This enhanced GAIA agent system includes semantic search against a Supabase database to find similar questions before processing new ones, improving both accuracy and efficiency.

## 🏗️ Architecture

### Multi-Agent System
- **Orchestrator Agent**: Routes questions and coordinates responses
- **Retriever Agent**: Handles file processing, data extraction  
- **Research Agent**: Web search and fact verification
- **Math Agent**: Mathematical calculations and analysis

### Database Integration
- **Semantic Search**: Finds similar questions using OpenAI embeddings
- **Exact Match Detection**: Returns answers for highly similar questions (>95% similarity)
- **Context Enhancement**: Uses similar questions as context for new processing

## 🚀 How It Works

### 1. Database-First Approach
```python
# For each incoming question:
1. Search database for similar questions (similarity > 0.75)
2. If highly similar (>0.95): Return exact answer
3. If moderately similar (>0.75): Use as context
4. Otherwise: Process with specialized agents
```

### 2. Example Database Entries
The database contains 165 GAIA Q&A pairs like:
```json
{
  "question": "A paper about AI regulation submitted to arXiv.org in June 2022...",
  "answer": "egalitarian",
  "similarity": 0.943
}
```

### 3. Similarity Matching
The system uses:
- **OpenAI text-embedding-3-small** for vector generation
- **Cosine similarity** for question matching
- **Configurable thresholds** for exact vs. contextual matches

## 🛠️ Setup

### 1. Environment Variables
Add to the `.env` file:
```env
OPENAI_API_KEY=openai_api_key
SUPABASE_URL=supabase_url  
SUPABASE_SERVICE_KEY=supabase_service_key
```

### 2. Install Dependencies
```bash
pip install -r requirements.txt
```

### 3. Test Database Integration
```bash
python test_database.py
```

## 🎯 GAIA Optimization Strategy

### Response Format Compliance
- **Exact answers only** - no explanations
- **Proper formatting** - USD as 12.34, lists comma-separated
- **No XML tags** or "FINAL ANSWER:" prefixes

### Efficiency Gains
- **Skip processing** for exact matches (saves API calls)
- **Better context** from similar questions improves accuracy
- **Targeted routing** based on question similarity patterns

### Expected Benefits
- **Improved accuracy** from learning similar question patterns
- **Faster responses** when exact matches found
- **Better resource usage** by avoiding redundant processing

## 📊 Usage Examples

### Direct Database Search
```python
from tools.database_tools import retriever

similar = retriever.search_similar_questions(
    "What fish from Finding Nemo became invasive?",
    top_k=3,
    similarity_threshold=0.8
)
```

### Full Agent Processing
```python
from agent import answer_gaia_question

answer = answer_gaia_question(
    "Calculate the statistical significance error rate for Nature 2020 papers"
)
```

## 🏆 GAIA Benchmark Target
