literature-search
literature-search is a Literature review & citations skill for AI agents, published by jxtse in the scientific-research-skills repository on GitHub. Skillspace rates literature-search D (59/100) and it passed the safety scan; the rating is based on static analysis only.
Searches and discovers academic papers across multiple sources (Semantic Scholar, arXiv, Tavily, Exa, Gemini deep research, AMiner, Google Scholar) with adaptive engine selection based on query type. Returns ranked, deduplicated results with metadata (authors, venue, year, citations, abstract, PDF link). Use when the user asks to find papers / literature / publications / preprints / references on a topic, search for related work, look up a specific paper by title or DOI or arXiv ID, find papers by an author, find recent SOTA / state-of-the-art work, survey a research area, or run a deep / comprehensive literature search with synthesis.
