Workflow that feeds daily search results into a local Ollama LLM to ground its knowledge with current data, eliminating hallucinations on time-sensitive topics.

Start FreeAPI Docs

Overview

Local LLMs running on Ollama hallucinate on anything after their training cutoff. This workflow runs daily searches on topics you care about, feeds the results into your local model's context, and stores grounded answers in a local knowledge file. Your assistant stays current without sending private queries to cloud APIs.

Trigger

Daily at 8 AM via cron or task scheduler.

Schedule

Daily 8 AM

Workflow Steps

1

Load Topic List

Read the list of topics you want your local LLM to stay current on from a YAML or JSON config.

2

Search Each Topic via Scavio

Run a Scavio search for each topic. Extract top 5 organic results with titles and snippets.

3

Format as Context Document

Combine search results into a markdown document with source URLs and retrieval timestamps.

4

Feed to Local Ollama Model

Send the context document plus a grounding prompt to your Ollama instance for summarization.

5

Store Grounded Knowledge

Save the grounded summary to a local knowledge base file for future reference.
