The documents are indexed and searchable via the [DugganUSA](https://analytics.dugganusa.com) public API. - **Source**: [DOJ Epstein Records](https://www.justice.gov/epstein) - **Index**: [DugganUSA Analytics](https://analytics.dugganusa.com) - **Coverage**: 44,886+ document files (3+ million pages) - **Content**: Court filings, depositions, flight logs, financial records, communications, evidence inventories, and more ## Piping & Integration Results go to stdout as JSON, making it easy to pipe into other tools: ```bash # Pipe to jq for filtering node scripts/epstein.mjs search --query "Maxwell" --limit 100 | jq '.hits[] | .people' # Save results to file node scripts/epstein.mjs search --query "flight logs" --limit 500 > flight-logs.json # Count total hits node scripts/epstein.mjs search --query "Palm Beach" | jq '.totalHits' # Extract all mentioned people node scripts/epstein.mjs search --query "2005" --limit 100 | jq '[.hits[].people[]?] | unique' ``` ## Troubleshooting **"Cannot reach API"** Check your internet connection. The DugganUSA API may have temporary downtime. **"No results found"** Try broader search terms. The search is keyword-based — use names, locations, or document types rather than full sentences. **Slow responses** The API typically responds in 100-900ms. Larger result sets (limit > 100) may take slightly longer. ## References - [DOJ Epstein Records](https://www.justice.gov/epstein) — Official DOJ release page - [DugganUSA API](https://analytics.dugganusa.com) — Search index provider - [Project Einstein](https://emc2ai.io) — AI agent with built-in Epstein files search
