Zero-key scholarly metadata tools for Alisio: literature_search, paper_discover, and literature_read.

All tools have the external effect. Queries and identifiers are sent only to fixed official HTTPS APIs: OpenAlex, Crossref, and arXiv. The plugin does not persist queries, identifiers, metadata, abstracts, headers, or caches.

It reads metadata and a source-provided bounded abstract only. It does not fetch arbitrary URLs, landing pages, HTML, PDFs, or full text, and it rejects redirects.

Install ​

bash
alisio install npm:@alisio/plugin-literature-research

literature_search searches OpenAlex. paper_discover supports openalex, crossref, and arxiv. literature_read accepts exactly one DOI, arXiv identifier, or OpenAlex work ID and discloses the fixed source used.

Inputs are bounded: query 1–512 characters, result limit 1–10, and years 1600 through next year. Results are normalized, escaped, capped, and retain source provenance. No generated relevance score is added.

Requires Node.js >= 22.16 and an Alisio host with @alisio/sdk >=0.1.0-alpha.10.
