SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Researchers need to query many different literature databases for search, full text, metadata, and citation data, but choosing the right specialized method for each task is confusing. This router inspects your intent and loads exactly one appropriate research-plugins skill.

Core Features & Use Cases

Intent-Based Routing: Calls skill_search with the target database, evidence type, and intended operation to find matching specialized skills.
Bounded Skill Selection: Returns a curated set of candidate skills with stable IDs, then loads one via skill_load before execution.
Use Case: You want to trace the citation network of a paper on arXiv. The router identifies the citation-traversal skill for that database, loads it, and hands off the workflow.

Quick Start

Ask the assistant to find and load the right literature skill for searching arXiv papers on multi-agent reasoning.

FAQPage Schema

How do I search academic literature databases with this router?▼

Call skill_search with the target database, evidence type, and intended operation. The router returns bounded metadata results, and you select one stable skill ID to load via skill_load before running the workflow.

What literature tasks does the research router support?▼

It covers database-specific literature search, full-text access, metadata enrichment, bibliometrics, citation traversal, and paper discovery. Each task is delegated to one specialized research-plugins skill rather than handled directly.

Does the router perform literature searches itself?▼

No, it only routes. It identifies and loads a single specialized skill for the requested database and operation; the actual search or citation work is executed by that loaded skill.

When should I use the Search SOP instead of this router?▼

Use Research-Claw's Search SOP for overall search strategy and planning. Use this router specifically when you need to load one specialized research-plugins method for a concrete database operation.
