Researchers face fragmented access to scholarly articles across many databases. This Skill unifies querying ten REST APIs (PubMed, PMC, bioRxiv, medRxiv, arXiv, OpenAlex, Crossref, Semantic Scholar, CORE, Unpaywall) to locate papers, DOIs, abstracts, and OA availability.
Query "quantum computing" and return a unified result set from PubMed, arXiv, OpenAlex, and Crossref.
High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.
To search open access papers across multiple scholarly databases, this Skill routes your query to ten REST APIs like PubMed, arXiv, OpenAlex, and Unpaywall, aggregating matching literature results into a single unified payload.
Yes, you can retrieve DOIs and abstracts from arXiv and PubMed by querying their REST APIs. The Skill coordinates calls across these databases to fetch metadata, OA links, and available full texts.
The best way to find open access versions of Crossref articles is to query Crossref alongside Unpaywall. The Skill coordinates these REST APIs to locate DOIs and identify accessible OA full texts.
To handle API rate limits during scholarly search, the Skill automatically respects the rate limits of each queried database, gracefully managing multi-database requests to PubMed, bioRxiv, CORE, and others without exceeding thresholds.
This paper lookup tool returns raw API responses alongside a record of the endpoints used. It provides a structured, multi-database results payload containing metadata, DOIs, and abstracts rather than formatted citations.
If a scholarly search query returns no results from bioRxiv or medRxiv, the Skill handles the empty responses gracefully and continues aggregating available data from other queried REST APIs like Semantic Scholar or OpenAlex.
