Solid

Search published venue papers (IEEE, ACM, Springer, etc.) via Semantic Scholar API. Complements /arxiv (preprints) with citation counts, venue metadata, and TLDR. Use when user says "search semantic scholar", "find IEEE papers", "find journal papers", "venue papers", "citation search", or wants published literature beyond arXiv preprints.

# Semantic Scholar Paper Search Search topic or paper ID: $ARGUMENTS ## Role & Positioning This skill is the **published venue** counterpart to `/arxiv`: | Skill | Source | Best for | |-------|--------|----------| | `/arxiv` | arXiv API | Latest preprints, cutting-edge unrefereed work | | `/semantic-scholar` | Semantic Scholar API | **Published** journal/conference papers (IEEE, ACM, Springer, etc.) with citation counts, venue info, TLDR | **Do NOT duplicate arXiv's job.** If results contain an `externalIds.ArXiv` field, the paper is also on arXiv — note this but do not re-fetch from arXiv. ## Constants - **MAX_RESULTS = 10** — Default number of search results. - **FETCH_SCRIPT** — `tools/semantic_scholar_fetch.py` relative to the project root. Fall back to inline Python if not found. - **DEFAULT_FILTERS** — For general research queries, apply these by default to reduce noise: - `--fields-of-study "Computer Science,Engineering"` - `--publication-types JournalArticle,Conference` > Overrides (append to arguments): > - `/semantic-scholar "topic" - max: 20` — return up to 20 results > - `/semantic-scholar "topic" - type: journal` — only journal articles > - `/semantic-scholar "topic" - type: conference` — only conference papers > - `/semantic-scholar "topic" - min-citations: 50` — only highly-cited papers > - `/semantic-scholar "topic" - year: 2022-` — papers from 2022 onward > - `/semantic-scholar "topic" - fields: all` — remove default field-of-study filter > - `/se...

semantic-scholar-search

Academic literature search using Semantic Scholar API for citation-aware paper discovery

arxiv-search

Single-machine academic paper search and PDF handling for any research field. Searches arXiv and Semantic Scholar without an API key, with DuckDuckGo as a web fallback, and extracts/downloads PDFs locally. MCP servers (arxiv-mcp-server, Ai2 Asta) are used when available. Use for quick, focused lookups in any discipline; for a broad multi-database sweep use scholar-megasearch instead.

paper-search

Use this skill when the user wants to search papers, find related work, do literature review, or survey a research area. Triggers include: "search papers", "find related work", "literature review", "survey", "what's been done", "find papers on", "arxiv search", "conference papers", "find code for", "find datasets for". Also use when starting any research to understand the existing landscape.

semantic-scholar-deep

Deep research over the Semantic Scholar Graph API. Covers endpoints missing from allenai's lookup skill — paper references (backward citations), recommendations, batch paper lookup (up to 500 IDs), snippet search, and multi-hop citation graph traversal (BFS forward/backward). Use when the user asks to build a citation graph, expand a literature seed, find related work, run a reference network traversal, explore what a paper cites or what cites it beyond simple lookup, or batch-resolve many DOI/arXiv/S2 IDs. For multi-step research questions, delegate to the deep-paper-researcher subagent to keep the main context clean. Not for single paper-by-ID lookups (use semantic-scholar-lookup) or topical discovery (use web_search_advanced_exa).
