Two problems made deep research report "No information could be gathered" even after it had extracted findings, on slow local models (reporter served a 20B via LM Studio): - _synthesize hard-capped its LLM call at timeout=60, while extraction uses the user's extraction_timeout (300s here) and the final report uses 180s. The slow model needed >60s to synthesize the round's findings, so synthesis timed out after 3 attempts. Raised it to 180s to match the final-report call. - When synthesis produced no report (it returns the unchanged, still-empty report on failure during round 1), the run hit `if not report: return "No information could be gathered…"` and discarded the findings it had already gathered. Now it falls back to a compiled report built from those findings (_fallback_report) so the user keeps the gathered material. Tests stub the LLM (no live model/DB), pin the synthesis timeout >= 180, that the fallback surfaces the findings rather than the give-up message, and that a failed synthesis preserves the previous report.

"""Regression tests for issue #1551 — deep research reported "No information
|
|
could be gathered" and showed nothing, even though the search rounds had already
|
|
extracted findings.
|
|
|
|
Two root causes in src/deep_research.py:
|
|
|
|
1. `_synthesize` hard-capped its LLM call at `timeout=60`, while extraction uses
|
|
the user's `extraction_timeout` (e.g. 300s) and the final report uses 180s. A
|
|
slow local model (the reporter served a 20B from LM Studio) needs >60s to
|
|
synthesize a round's findings, so synthesis timed out after 3 attempts.
|
|
|
|
2. When synthesis failed on the first round, the gathered findings were thrown
|
|
away: `if not report: return "No information could be gathered…"`. The 8
|
|
findings the run had already extracted were lost.
|
|
|
|
The fixes: give synthesis the same 180s budget as the final report, and fall
|
|
back to a compiled report built from the gathered findings when synthesis
|
|
produced nothing. These run without a live LLM or DB (same stub pattern as
|
|
tests/test_deep_research_date_context.py).
