GrepSeek: Training Search Agents for Direct Corpus Interaction

Excerpt

Most existing systems rely on retrievers that return ranked documents from a pre-built index. We explore a complementary paradigm in which the agent treats the corpus as the search environment and finds evidence through executable shell commands. We introduce GrepSeek, an optimized direct corpus intera
