# Analysis Agent The analysis agent enables complex analytical tasks by writing and executing Python code in a sandboxed environment. It solves problems that traditional RAG struggles with: - **Aggregation**: "How many documents mention security vulnerabilities?" - **Computation**: "What's the average revenue across all quarterly reports?" - **Multi-document analysis**: "Compare the key findings between Report A and Report B" - **Structured data extraction**: "Extract all dollar amounts and compute totals" ## How It Works 1. The agent receives a question 2. It writes Python code to explore the knowledge base 3. Code executes in a sandboxed Python interpreter with access to search, LLM, and a virtual filesystem of documents 4. The agent iterates: run code, examine results, refine approach 5. Final answer is synthesized from the gathered data ## CLI Usage ```bash # Basic usage haiku-rag analyze "How many documents are in the database?" # With document filter (restricts what the agent can access) haiku-rag analyze "Summarize the key points" --filter "uri LIKE '%report%'" # Pre-load specific documents haiku-rag analyze "Compare these two reports" --document "Q1 Report" --document "Q2 Report" ``` ## Python Usage ```python from haiku.rag.client import HaikuRAG async with HaikuRAG(path_to_db) as client: # Basic question result = await client.analyze("How many documents mention 'security'?") print(result.answer) # The answer print(result.program) # The final consolidated program # With filter (agent can only see filtered documents) result = await client.analyze( "What is the total revenue?", filter="title LIKE '%Financial%'" ) # Pre-load specific documents result = await client.analyze( "Compare the conclusions", documents=["Report A", "Report B"] ) ``` ## Sandbox Capabilities The agent's code runs in a sandboxed Python interpreter ([pydantic-monty](https://github.com/pydantic/monty)) with: ### Functions | Function | Description | |----------|-------------| | `search(query, limit)` | Hybrid search (vector + full-text) with automatic context expansion. Returns `doc_item_refs` for cross-referencing with `items.jsonl` | | `list_documents()` | List all documents in the knowledge base | | `llm(prompt)` | Call an LLM for classification, summarization, or extraction | ### Document Filesystem All documents are mounted as a virtual filesystem at `/documents/`. The agent uses standard Python `pathlib.Path` to browse and read files: ``` /documents/{document_id}/ metadata.json # {id, title, uri, created_at} content.txt # Full document text items.jsonl # Structured items: position, self_ref, label, text, page_numbers ``` - **`metadata.json`** — Loaded eagerly (small). Use `Path('/documents').iterdir()` to discover documents. - **`content.txt`** — Lazy-loaded on first read. Full document text for regex or keyword search. - **`items.jsonl`** — Lazy-loaded on first read. One JSON object per line with structured document elements. Tables are pre-rendered as markdown. Labels include `section_header`, `text`, `table`, `list_item`, `caption`, `formula`, `picture`, `code`, `footnote`, etc. Search results include `doc_item_refs` (e.g. `["#/texts/5", "#/tables/0"]`) that match `self_ref` values in `items.jsonl`, enabling navigation from search hits to document structure. When documents are pre-loaded via the `documents` parameter, they are also injected as a `documents` variable accessible in the sandbox code. ### Python Features The interpreter supports a subset of Python: variables, arithmetic, strings, f-strings, lists, dicts, tuples, sets, loops, conditionals, comprehensions, functions, async/await, `filter()`, `getattr()`, try/except, file I/O via `pathlib.Path`, and the `json`, `re`, `math` modules. Not supported: most imports (only `json`, `re`, `math`, `pathlib` are available), class definitions, generators/yield, match statements, decorators, `with` statements. For pattern matching, the agent can use `import re`, string methods, or the `llm()` function. ### Security Code executes in an isolated interpreter with: - **Virtual filesystem only**: The `/documents/` filesystem is sandboxed — no access to the real filesystem - **No network access**: Code cannot make HTTP requests or open sockets - **No imports**: Only `json`, `re`, `math`, and `pathlib` modules are available - **Execution timeout**: Configurable limit (default 60s) - **Output truncation**: Large outputs are truncated to prevent memory issues ## Context Filter The `filter` parameter restricts what documents the agent can access. Unlike tool parameters, the filter is applied automatically and cannot be bypassed by the LLM — both the VFS and search results are scoped to the filter: ```python # Agent can only see documents with "confidential" in the URI result = await client.analyze( "Summarize all findings", filter="uri LIKE '%confidential%'" ) ``` This is useful for scoping to specific document sets, enforcing access control, or limiting context for focused analysis. ## Configuration Analysis settings can be configured in `haiku.rag.yaml`: ```yaml analysis: model: provider: anthropic name: claude-sonnet-4-20250514 code_timeout: 60.0 # Max seconds for code execution max_output_chars: 50000 # Truncate output after this many chars ```
