lyrenth-agents

Ten agents that read the web and finish the job.

Give one a few URLs and it hands back the thing you actually wanted: a comparison table, a brief on a company, the answer to a documentation question with the heading it came from, a sheet you open in Excel. Every claim carries the number of the page it came from, and every page that could not be read is named with the reason.

The reading goes through Lyrenth, which serves each page as clean text instead of HTML, so the pages arrive without the menus, banners, scripts and markup.

export LYRENTH_API_KEY=...        # free key: https://lyrenth.com/signup

uvx lyrenth-agents compare \
  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PostgreSQL \
  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MySQL

With that key alone, the agent reads the pages and prints the finished prompt with its numbered sources, ready to paste into whichever assistant you already use. Point it at a model and it answers on its own:

export LLM_BASE_URL=https://api.example.com/v1   # any OpenAI-compatible endpoint
export LLM_MODEL=your-model-name
export LLM_API_KEY=...

The ten

lyrenth-agents --list prints the same list with an example command for each one. Every agent also has a page at lyrenth.com/agents showing a real run.

A real run

Against the live API on 21 September 2026, unedited. The progress lines go to stderr, the answer to stdout.

Two encyclopedia articles that weigh 412,333 tokens as raw HTML arrived as 60,000 tokens of text, and the answer cites which of the two every cell came from.

What it does with the pages

1. Reads text, not markup. Each page arrives as an AIDocument: the content, its canonical URL, when it was read, and what it costs in tokens.
2. Shares the budget between the pages. Every page gets an equal share and a short page gives its leftover back to the long ones, so a comparison never comes back with one product filled in and the other column empty.
3. Reads each page once. A mobile copy, a tracking parameter or an old redirect resolves to the same canonical URL and is dropped as a duplicate.
4. Keeps provenance. Title, canonical URL and read time go into the prompt with the source number, which is what makes the citations checkable.
5. Fails out loud. A page that could not be read is listed with the reason, and a citation pointing at a source number that does not exist is flagged.

Agents with more than one step

Some jobs are not one question. An agent can be written as a short list of steps that pass their work along, so it can read, then think about what it read, then do something with the result.

not done yet: would write company-pack.md (1,563 bytes, 18 lines)
add --yes to the same command to do it.

Three things to notice, because they are the rules the whole thing is built on:

1. The pages are read once. The second step works from what the first one wrote. It is not handed the pages again, and it does not pay to read them again. It is handed the numbered list of sources, so the citations it carries forward still point at the right page.
2. Nothing happened. A step that acts on the world says what it would do and stops. --yes performs it. A command you pasted from a website never writes, sends or posts on its own.
3. The model never chose the destination. The path came from the agent and can be changed by you (--set file.path=meeting/mozilla.md), never by the text on a page that was read. A page can contain any sentence at all, including one addressed to your model.

Write your own

A recipe is data: the instructions for the model and the shape of the output. Register one and it runs on the same engine.
