Paper Lookup
Use this skill for external literature discovery and metadata lookup.
Important routing boundary
Do not replace the existing library-first workflow.
Keep this order:
zoterofirst for paper/library retrievalcalibresecond for review tasks needing a local documentpaper-lookupfor external metadata/discoverygetscipapers-requesterfor actual external retrieval when needed
Good use cases
- find papers on a topic
- resolve a DOI or PMID
- check whether a paper has an open-access location
- search major literature APIs before retrieval
