26 of 26 tools

Documented tools (26)

From project documentation. A server handshake does not verify each tool’s description or behavior.

add_to_collection

Add a paper to a collection by name or id (also auto-saves).

ask_library

"Answer from my saved set": a cited synthesis over your library or one collection, grounded only in papers you've saved (read-only). The inverse of findgaps. Free 1/month, then Pro 200/day.

check_drift

"Is the method I use superseded — and by what?" Critique receipts + benchmark-dominance edges over ~10 LLM builder-problem families. No Pro quota.

check_watches

Pull new matches since the last digest (read-only, idempotent).

co_author_graph

Co-authorship neighborhood for an author

create_collection

Create a named collection (get-or-create; no error on duplicate).

create_watch

Standing daily-evaluated saved search; get-or-create by name. Define it with a structured criteria filter (recommended) or a single seed selector.

delete_watch

Delete a watch by name or id (idempotent).

embed_text

Get a 768-dim Gemini embedding for text (for HyDE and custom similarity). Pro-only, so anonymous/free callers get a 403 prorequired.

fetch_fulltext

Extract results/experiments from LaTeX source

find_author

Find researchers by topic/name query, or retrieve a profile by ID.

find_gaps

"What am I missing?" for a collection or topic: foundational + frontier work you haven't saved (read-only, Pro).

get_citations

Citation graph (outgoing refs or incoming citations)

get_field_orientation

Cheap retrieval orientation for a research area: top papers, subfields, open problems. No Pro quota.

get_foundational_lineage

Foundational work for a paper's niche via the citation graph (consensus-then-lift): nicheroots → fieldlevel → discipline, with citedbyinniche evidence. Surfaces canonical anchors semantic search misses. No Pro quota.

get_paper

Get full paper details by arXiv ID. Also handles batch lookup and BibTeX export.

like_paper

"More like this" calibration signal for the For You feed (insert-only).

list_collections

List collections with paper counts.

list_library

List your saved papers, newest first.

list_watches

List watches with summary, lastevaluatedat, and pendinghits.

preview_watch

Dry-run a structured criteria filter over recent papers without creating a watch; returns matchcount and a sample to tune before saving. Read-only.

remove_from_collection

Remove a paper from a collection (stays saved).

save_paper

Bookmark a paper to your library (idempotent; feeds personalization).

search_papers

Semantic + keyword search with filters. Also does similar-paper discovery, citation-scoped search, and trending.

unsave_paper

Remove a paper from your library (idempotent).

update_watch

Edit a watch in place: rename, change noveltymin, or retarget its structured criteria (clears pending hits). Address by name or id.
