Find Literature

Search academic literature for papers relevant to a query. The search will return a ranked list of papers with relevance scores, summaries, and supporting snippets.

This is an advanced search, so the query can be long and complex. You may ask the user questions to clarify the topic and refine the query before running the search.

Installation

This skill requires the asta CLI:

# Install/reinstall at the correct version
PLUGIN_VERSION=0.16.0
if [ "$(asta --version 2>/dev/null | grep -oE '[0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+')" != "$PLUGIN_VERSION" ]; then
  uv tool install --force git+https://github.com/allenai/asta-plugins.git@v$PLUGIN_VERSION
