SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

DeepXiv provides progressive, layered access to open-access papers so you can search, skim, and read sections without loading full documents upfront.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Layered reading: search → brief → head → section, plus trending and web search
  • Multi-source discovery: direct arXiv search/PDF, Semantic Scholar metadata, and web results
  • Use case: triage papers quickly by metadata and section summaries, then dive deeper as needed

Quick Start

Start by searching a topic with the DeepXiv CLI and progress from a brief to the head and then a specific section as needed.

Frequently Asked Questions about deepxiv

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I read arXiv papers progressively without loading the full text?▼

Search arXiv papers progressively by moving from brief metadata to head and specific sections, avoiding full text loads upfront. This layered reading approach lets you triage papers quickly by summaries before diving deeper.

Can I search across multiple sources like Semantic Scholar and web results for literature?▼

Yes, multi-source discovery supports literature search across direct arXiv search, Semantic Scholar metadata, and web results. You can discover and triage open-access papers across these platforms using a unified interface.

What is the best way to triage research papers quickly by section summaries?▼

The best way to triage research papers is using a progressive reading workflow: search a topic, review a brief, check the head, and read specific sections as needed. This avoids loading full documents upfront while evaluating relevance.

Do I need the DeepXiv CLI to search and read open-access papers?▼

Yes, finding and progressively reading open-access papers requires the DeepXiv CLI or the fetch script. These tools enable arguments for search, brief, head, section, trending, and web modes to access literature across arXiv and Semantic Scholar.

How do I find trending papers on arXiv using a section reading approach?▼

Find trending arXiv papers by using the trending mode, then apply section reading to progressively access specific parts without full loads. This workflow supports topic discovery and focused reading by retrieving section summaries on demand.
