SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) and assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

It eliminates the slow, error-prone process of searching for papers, verifying their metadata (DOIs/arXiv), and deciding what to read next.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Discovers real papers across sources: Finds relevant research on any topic using arXiv, Google Scholar, PubMed, Semantic Scholar, and more.
  • Ranks and de-duplicates: Produces a curated, non-redundant reading list using relevance and quality scoring.
  • Outputs cite-ready artifacts: Returns a ranked reading list plus a bibliography.yaml suitable for directly handing off to the research-paper writer.

Quick Start

Use the get-research-paper skill to return a verified, ranked reading list for a topic by asking: /get-research-paper "retrieval-augmented generation" --n 10 --years last-3 --style ieee --handoff

Frequently Asked Questions about get-research-paper

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I find real research papers and generate a verified reading list?

To find real research papers, search arXiv, PubMed, and Semantic Scholar to retrieve existing literature. The results are ranked, de-duplicated, and verified for DOI or arXiv accuracy to produce a curated, non-redundant reading list.

How do I verify a DOI or arXiv ID during a literature search?

Verifying a DOI or arXiv ID during a literature search is handled automatically during retrieval. The system enforces freshness and validates identifiers against source repositories to ensure cite-ready metadata is accurate.

What is the best way to build a bibliography.yaml for a research-paper writing pipeline?

Build a bibliography.yaml by discovering papers across multiple academic repositories. The process outputs a ranked reading list with cite-ready metadata suitable for direct handoff to a research-paper writing pipeline.

Can I control the recency and depth of papers returned from Semantic Scholar and PubMed?

You can control recency and depth using command-line flags like years and result count. This filters the literature search across Semantic Scholar, PubMed, and arXiv to match your specified parameters.

Does the research discovery process de-duplicate redundant papers from Google Scholar and arXiv?

Research discovery applies aggressive de-duplication to eliminate redundant papers from Google Scholar and arXiv. This ensures the final reading list is non-redundant and properly ranked by relevance and quality.

Do I need YAML-defined entrypoints to use the get-research-paper skill?

YAML-defined entrypoint activation is required to use the get-research-paper skill. You can trigger it using slash commands or natural-language patterns to start the literature search workflow.
