Tools 27 found in our last check

• search_papers

  Search Scholar Feed's 600k+ CS/AI/ML paper corpus. Semantic (embedding) search by default, so it finds conceptually related work even when the wording differs. EVERY PARAMETER DOCUMENTS ITS OWN BEHAVIOUR AND COVERAGE LIMITS — read the ones you intend to use; this description cov…

• get_paper

  Get full details for one or more papers by arXiv ID. Pass a single-element array for one paper; pass multiple IDs to batch-fetch up to 50 papers in one call. Pass format='bibtex' to get a .bib citation entry (bibtex is single-paper only; for multi-paper bibtex, call repeatedly).…

• get_citations

  Get the citation graph for a paper, sorted by citing-paper rank_score (highest-impact first). 'citing' = outgoing references this paper cites; 'cited_by' = incoming citations from other papers. Default response is a lean 12-field shape per paper — pass verbose=true for the full…

• fetch_fulltext

  Read arXiv papers' actual text, by section. Section selection controls context cost: ask for the one or two you need, not whole papers — 'all' is ~13.5KB a paper, 8 of them ~108KB. Section labels are inferred: check `low_confidence_sections` before calling one the paper's own. S…

• find_author

  Two-mode author tool. Provide exactly one of q or id. Q-MODE (q=...): search for researchers by topic or name — uses embedding similarity for topics ('efficient LLM inference'), fuzzy matching for names ('Yann LeCun'). Returns a list of matching authors with author_id, name, h_i…

• co_author_graph

  Find the co-authorship neighborhood of one or more authors. Given a list of author_ids, returns edges {from, to, papers_count, last_collab_year} where 'from' is one of the input authors and 'to' is any co-author appearing on a shared paper within the window. Use for AC reviewer…

• embed_text

  Embed a text string into a 768-dim Gemini Flash vector. Use for HyDE-style retrieval: (1) write a hypothetical short paper that would perfectly answer the user's query, (2) embed it with task_type='RETRIEVAL_DOCUMENT' (default — matches the corpus embedding side), (3) pass the r…

• get_field_orientation

  Returns CANDIDATE FOUNDATIONAL PAPERS for a research topic — cheap retrieval only, no synthesis. Ranks papers by a blend of citation count (0.6 weight, captures importance) and semantic similarity to your topic (0.4 weight). Use this to bootstrap a literature survey or get a fas…

• get_foundational_lineage

  Returns the FOUNDATIONAL WORK FOR A PAPER'S NICHE via the citation graph — the relative question ('what is foundational for THIS paper's specific sub-field', often itself only modestly cited) rather than the obvious global landmarks. Anchors on the paper, takes its embedding nei…

• save_paper

  Save a paper to the authenticated user's Scholar Feed library (bookmark). MUTATES the library and feeds the user's personalization — saved papers are the strongest signal in the For You feed and the email digest. Idempotent: calling it again on an already-saved paper leaves it s…

• unsave_paper

  Remove a paper from the authenticated user's Scholar Feed library. MUTATES the library. Idempotent: removing a paper that isn't saved leaves it unsaved. Note: the saved library is a superset of all collections, so un-saving a paper ALSO removes it from every collection it was in…

• like_paper

  Like a paper — a 'more like this' calibration signal that tunes the user's For You feed toward similar work. INSERT-only and idempotent (liking twice is a no-op, never un-likes). Distinct from save_paper: like expresses taste for ranking; save bookmarks for later reading. Requir…

• list_library

  List the authenticated user's saved papers (their library), newest first. Read-only. Use this to review a reading list or to see what's already saved before saving more. Requires SF_API_KEY. SHAPE: agent callers get a lean record — `llm_summary` (~300 chars) INSTEAD of the abstr…

• list_collections

  List the authenticated user's collections (named groups of saved papers) with paper counts. Read-only. Use before add_to_collection to see existing collections. Requires SF_API_KEY.

• create_collection

  Create a new named collection. MUTATES. If a collection with that name already exists, returns the existing one (get-or-create — never errors on duplicate). Use "/" to nest under a folder, e.g. "AgentOPA/Formal" — the folder is derived from the name, so there is no parent to cre…

• add_to_collection

  Add a paper to a collection, addressed by collection_id OR collection_name (get-or-create by name — no need to look up an id first). Nest with "/": collection_name "AgentOPA/Formal" files the paper under an "AgentOPA" folder. MUTATES: also auto-saves the paper to the library. Id…

• remove_from_collection

  Remove a paper from a collection, addressed by collection_id OR collection_name. MUTATES (the paper stays in your library; it's only removed from this collection). Idempotent. Requires SF_API_KEY.

• create_watch

  Create a standing watch — evaluated daily against newly-indexed papers, surfacing new matches via the email digest and via check_watches. MUTATES. Get-or-create by name (re-creating with an existing name returns it unchanged — never errors on duplicate). TWO forms: (1) the v2 ST…

• list_watches

  List the authenticated user's watches with name, a one-line definition summary, last_evaluated_at, and pending_hits (count of new matches since the last digest delivery). Read-only. Use before create_watch to see what's already tracked. Requires SF_API_KEY.

• check_watches

  Pull new matching papers since the last digest delivery, in the same shape as search_papers results. Optionally scope to one watch by watch_name OR watch_id; omit both for all watches. Read-only and idempotent — does NOT advance any watermark (only digest delivery does), so it i…

• delete_watch

  Delete a watch, addressed by watch_id OR name. MUTATES. Idempotent: deleting a non-existent watch is a no-op (no error). To change a watch in place (rename / novelty_min / retarget criteria) use update_watch instead of delete-and-recreate. Requires SF_API_KEY.

• update_watch

  Update an existing watch in place — rename, change novelty_min, or RETARGET its structured filter `criteria`. MUTATES. Address by watch_id OR name. Changing criteria replaces the definition and clears the watch's pending hits (so stale matches don't deliver); the next daily eval…

• preview_watch

  Dry-run a structured filter over recent papers WITHOUT creating a watch — the tuning loop. Returns {window_days, needs_similarity, match_count, sample} so you can iterate (add a category, raise min_novelty, switch the collection relation) before saving with create_watch. Structu…

• find_gaps

  Find important work you HAVEN'T saved, for a collection or topic — a 'what am I missing?' analysis. Returns two buckets: foundational_gaps (canonical citation-graph anchors in the niche, not in your library) and frontier_gaps (recent high-novelty work in the niche, not yet saved…

• ask_library

  Answer a question using ONLY the papers you've saved — a synthesis over your library (or one collection) with inline [arXiv-ID] citations. The inverse of find_gaps (which finds important work you're MISSING): ask_library reasons over what you HAVE. Optionally scope to one collec…

• annotate_paper

  Record YOUR verdict on a paper — why it matters for your work, when to use it, or why you ruled it out. One note per paper, upserted (writing again replaces it), so it is safe to call repeatedly. Requires SF_API_KEY. WHY IT MATTERS: this note is the only thing that survives betw…

• check_drift

  Answers 'for my problem, is the method I use superseded — and by what?' over a grounded, entity-resolved knowledge base of textual critique receipts + benchmark-dominance edges (no LLM call at query time). Call with a `family` (e.g. 'rag', 'peft', 'kvcache') and a `method` (e.g.…
