description This skill should be used when the user asks to "search for papers", "find research papers", "search arXiv", "search PubMed", "look up a DOI", "download a paper", "search IEEE", or "search Scopus".

Search and read papers

Run Paper Search CLI through the shell. If paper-search is unavailable, follow setup.

Find papers

paper-search search 'object detection' -s fast -n 5
paper-search search 'object detection' -s arxiv,crossref -n 5
paper-search sources

Search returns JSON. Check errors for partial failures and retain source identifiers and URLs. Try alternate terms and multiple sources before concluding that no papers exist. Discover source names with paper-search sources; use explicit -s ieee, -s scopus, or -s wos only with configured credentials.

Look up, download, and read

Citation commands accept a DOI or OpenAlex work ID, not a title. Check pagination and truncation metadata before treating a citation list as complete. Use paper-search tool --help and paper-search tool <operation> --help to discover other operations and their arguments.

Verify author names, venue, and year against the published paper or official record. For numerical claims, inspect the PDF's actual table or figure; extracted text can lose layout. Do not treat a search snippet as evidence for a result.
