[!NOTE] DeerFlow 2.0 is a ground-up rewrite. It shares no code with v1. If you're looking for the original Deep Research framework, it's maintained on the `1.x` branch — contributions there are still welcome. Active development has moved to 2.0.

InfoQuest
InfoQuest reader, web search, and image search use a 30-second HTTP connect/read inactivity timeout. The crawl timeout and navigation_timeout settings remain separate server-side options; they do not control the local HTTP timeout.
