The engine milestone (v0.2.5) is shipped and owner-approved; hosting goes live next (v0.3, in progress). + +- **What** — FastAPI backend (planning, search, extraction, verification, export gates) plus a Next.js frontend; the full test suite runs with zero API keys. +- **Why** — Readers can check every citation back to its source passage; runs are resumable from durable state. +- **Action** — no action — FYI. Developers: see the Quickstart below. +- **Details** — `frontend/README.md` (web app); `.ciagent/` (pipeline state and roadmap). + A deep-research studio where you bring your own model, storage, and memory; choose a research methodology before a single query fires; and every claim in the final report is anchored to a visited, verified, quotable source. **Status: MVP shipped (v0.2.5, owner-approved 2026-09-27)** — the full research engine (FastAPI + asyncio state machine + adapter layer + attack-proven trust loop) behind the v0.1 frontend. Live mode covers the core research loop (G-002/G-009): the engine runs locally per the quickstart; library/settings/suggestions/refine stay mock-backed until v0.3+.
