DATAGEN Banner

About DATAGEN

DATAGEN is a powerful brand name that represents our vision of leveraging artificial intelligence technology for data generation and analysis. The name combines "DATA" and "GEN"(generation), perfectly embodying the core functionality of this project - automated data analysis and research through a multi-agent system.

Usage

Using Python Script

You can run the system using main.py:

  1. Place your data file (e.g., YourDataName.csv) in the data directory

  2. Modify the user_input variable in the main() function of main.py:

user_input = '''
datapath:YourDataName.csv
Use machine learning to perform data analysis and write complete graphical reports
'''

ˇ. Run the script:

python main.py

Main Components

  • hypothesis_agent: Generates research hypotheses
  • process_agent: Supervises the entire research process
  • visualization_agent: Creates data visualizations
  • code_agent: Writes data analysis code
  • searcher_agent: Conducts literature and web searches
  • report_agent: Writes research reports
  • quality_review_agent: Performs quality reviews
  • note_agent: Records the research process

Workflow

The system uses LangGraph to create a state graph that manages the entire research process. The workflow includes the following steps:

  1. Hypothesis generation
  2. Human choice (continue or regenerate hypothesis)
  3. Processing (including data analysis, visualization, search, and report writing)
  4. Quality review
  5. Revision as needed

Agent Model Configuration

Users can customize each agent's language model provider and model configuration by editing the agent_models.yaml file (located in your CONFIG_DIRECTORY). This allows for seamless environment switching (dev/prod) by simply pointing to a different configuration folder.

Here's an example structure of agent_models.yaml:

agents:
  hypothesis_agent:
    provider: openai
    model_config:
      model: gpt-5.6-luna
      temperature: 1.0
  note_agent:
    provider: google
    model_config:
      model: gemini-3.1-pro-preview
  code_agent:
    provider: anthropic
    model_config:
      model: claude-sonnet-5
  • provider: Specifies the language model provider to use (e.g., openai, google, anthropic, ollama, groq, atlascloud, orcarouter)
  • model_config: Contains model-specific configuration parameters
    • model: The specific model name to use
    • temperature: Controls the randomness of model output (range: 0.0-2.0). Omit it for models that do not accept it: Gemini 3.x ignores it, and Claude Sonnet 5 rejects any value other than its default.

The atlascloud provider reads ATLASCLOUD_API_KEY and uses Atlas Cloud's OpenAI-compatible endpoint. Choose a model from the current Atlas Cloud model catalog, for example:

  report_agent:
    provider: atlascloud
    model_config:
      model: openai/gpt-5.4
      temperature: 1.0

Advanced Configuration System

DATAGEN implements a powerful Progressive Disclosure architecture for agent configuration, inspired by Claude Agent Skills.

Documentation

Key Features

  • Unified Config Root: All core settings are managed via the CONFIG_DIRECTORY environment variable.
  • Skill-Based Architecture: Reusable skills stored in skills/ (within the config root)
  • Dynamic Tool Loading: Tools configured via config.yaml using ToolFactory
  • Model Context Protocol (MCP): External server integration (Filesystem, GitHub, Web Search)
  • Progressive Disclosure: Three-level loading strategy for Context Window optimization

Notes

  • Ensure you have sufficient API credits, as the system will make multiple API calls.
  • The system may take some time to complete the entire research process, depending on the complexity of the task.
  • WARNING: The agent system may modify the data being analyzed. It is highly recommended to backup your data before using this system.
  • DATAGEN does not ship or train on project-provided training datasets. Users provide their own analysis data at runtime through WORKING_DIRECTORY.

Current Issues and Solutions

  1. NoteTaker Efficiency Improvement
  2. Overall Runtime Optimization
  3. Refiner needs to be better

Other Projects

Here are some of my other notable projects:

PheroPath

PheroPath is a filesystem-based stigmergy communication protocol that allows agents and humans to leave invisible "pheromones" (signals) on files. It enables communicating context, risks (DANGER), or status (TODO, SAFE) without modifying the file content itself, facilitating better multi-agent collaboration.
