ResearchX
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: prototype (milestone v0.1) — UI/UX with mock data. No backend, no API keys, no network calls.
Quickstart
cd frontend
pnpm install
pnpm dev
Open http://localhost:3000 — you land on Ask. Type a question, click Research this, pick a methodology on Choose (Deep Report is the recommended default), and press Start research.
Three clicks from cold start to initiated research.
What's in the prototype
| Screen | What it does |
|---|---|
/ask |
One question box + one optional context box. Nothing else competing for attention. |
/choose |
All 8 locked methodology cards — mock ETA, cost estimate, why-recommended, and the 12 methodology dials behind each card's Advanced drawer. |
/run/[id] |
Placeholder — Plan & Run ships in phase 2. |
All data flows through a typed ApiClient interface backed by MockApiClient — the same components will talk to the FastAPI backend via the OpenAPI-generated client in the MVP milestone, with zero rewrites.
