Academic paper research
Find scholarly papers and preprints across arXiv and Crossref.
When to use
- The question deserves citation-grade evidence (methods, results, surveys).
- Locating the current state of a research topic.
- Verifying that a technique/
resultactually has published grounding.
Tools used
search_academic— paper search over arXiv/Crossref.paper_research— deeper paper research on a topic.literature_review— structured sweep for full coverage (seeliterature-reviewskill).
Workflow
- Phrase with scholarly vocabulary (task helps:
paper_research). search_academic/paper_research; keep the arXiv/crossref identity.- Fetch the abstract (or paper) via
web-reader/pdf-researchbefore quoting findings. - Build the citation trail: title, authors, year, source, identifier.
Input schema
{ "query": "str", "limit": "int" }
Output schema
{ "results": "list[{title,authors,year,source,url}]" }
Security
A paper's claim is a claim under peer review pressure, not proof. Treat preprints as weaker than published versions; always keep the source identifiers.
