SpecStream for Agents Deep Research

SpecStream is the live web data engine for teams and agents. Set SEARCH_PROVIDER to searchxng and SEARCHXNG_HOST to SpecStream's address, and Agents Deep Research searches through SpecStream's Search API in the SearXNG shape its code already reads.

What you get

Two lines in .env
SEARCH_PROVIDER=searchxng and SEARCHXNG_HOST with your key in the address. The client adds /search itself.
Any model provider
Unlike OpenAI's hosted search, the searchxng branch works with Anthropic, Gemini, DeepSeek, OpenRouter and local models.
Fast tier price
Each web_search call is one fast Search API call of up to 10 results, at $1 per 1,000.

Set it up

  1. Get a SpecStream key on the Search API screen of your workspace.
  2. Set SEARCH_PROVIDER=searchxng and SEARCHXNG_HOST=https://api.specstream.ai/searxng/YOUR_SPECSTREAM_KEY in .env.
  3. Run deep-researcher --mode deep --query "your question", or pass search_provider="searchxng" to LLMConfig.

The full setup guide has every step, with what to do if something doesn’t arrive.
