GrepSeek training paradigm lets AI search agents query raw documents directly using shell commands instead of pre-built indexes
An execution engine runs commands in parallel across sharded threads.
#957Andrew Drozdov@MRDROZDOVThere’s a major shift underway in information retrieval: search agents with broader capabilities and access to more tools than any systems before them.

#1137Fernando Diaz@841IOthe information retrieval community has long known that structured queries provide more precise and surgical interaction with a corpus compared to keywords. together with folks at umass, led by @SalemiAlireza7, we show the effective and efficient use of the same tools by agents.
