Install and run

Setup complexity: low.

clawhub skill install s17emme0e2m3cpf7k2jvp3a84984b8z9:nm-tome-papers

Setup complexity is classified as HIGH. You must provision dedicated cloud infrastructure or an isolated VM. Do not run this directly on your local workstation.
Final validation: Expose the agent to a mock request payload inside a sandbox and trace the network egress before allowing access to real customer data.

Contract: missing

# Academic Papers Search

## When To Use

- Finding academic papers, citations, or formal research
- Building literature reviews or citation chains

## When NOT To Use

- Community opinions (use `/tome:discourse`)
- Code implementations (use `/tome:code-search`)

Search arXiv, Semantic Scholar, and open-access sources.

## Sources (Priority Order)

1. arXiv API (free, unlimited metadata)
2. Semantic Scholar API (100 req/5min, citation graphs)
3. Unpaywall (legal free version discovery)
4. CORE.ac.uk (open-access aggregator)
5. PubMed Central (biomedical)
6. Author preprint pages (WebSearch fallback)

## PDF Processing

After acquiring a paper URL or local file path, convert
the PDF to markdown for better extraction quality.

### Conversion (prefer markitdown)

Apply the `leyline:document-conversion` protocol:

1. **Try markitdown first**: call the MCP `convert_to_markdown`
tool with the PDF URL or `file://` path. This produces
structured markdown preserving tables, equations, figures,
and section hierarchy.

2. **Fall back to Read tool** if markitdown is unavailable:
- Read with `pages: "1-20"` for the first chunk
- Continue with `pages: "21-40"` for longer papers
- Continue in 20-page increments as needed
- Note: tables and figures will not extract as cleanly

### Extraction Targets

From the converted markdown, extract:

- Abstract and key findings
- Methodology and experimental setup
- Results tables and figures
- Citation information (authors, year, venue)
- Key equations or formal definitions

## Fallback Guidance

When a paper is paywalled and no open version exists:
- Public library JSTOR/ProQuest access via library card
- DeepDyve article rental
- Inter-library loan request
- Direct author email template

## Description:

Searches academic literature via arXiv, Semantic Scholar, and open-access PDFs.

This skill is ready for commercial/non-commercial use.

## Publisher:

[athola](https://clawhub.ai/user/athola)

### License/Terms of Use:

MIT-0

## Use Case:

Researchers, students, and developers use this skill to find academic papers, build literature reviews or citation chains, and extract key details from open-access or local PDFs.

### Deployment Geography for Use:

Global

## Known Risks and Mitigations:

Risk: The skill may activate on general PDF or paper-related requests, including non-academic or sensitive local PDFs.

Mitigation: Confirm the request is appropriate for academic-paper search or PDF reading before using the skill on non-academic or sensitive documents.

Risk: The workflow may access academic services or convert remote or local PDFs.

Mitigation: Review requested URLs and file paths before retrieval or conversion, especially when handling private documents.

- [Tome plugin homepage](https://github.com/athola/claude-night-market/tree/master/plugins/tome)

## Skill Output:

**Output Type(s):** [text, markdown, guidance, API calls]

**Output Format:** [Markdown text with paper search results, citation details, extracted PDF content, and fallback guidance.]

**Output Parameters:** [1D]

**Other Properties Related to Output:** [May use academic literature services and PDF-to-markdown conversion when available.]

## Skill Version(s):

1.9.19 (source: server release metadata; artifact frontmatter lists 1.9.8)

## Ethical Considerations:

Users should evaluate whether this skill is appropriate for their environment, review any generated or modified files before relying on them, and apply their organization's safety, security, and compliance requirements before deployment.
