Paperclip CLI

Paperclip exposes roughly 11M full-text papers, 217K+ regulatory documents, 110K+ clinical trial protocols, and 574K+ protein entries as a read-only virtual filesystem navigated with Unix commands, backed by server-side semantic search and LLM readers.

Every document is line-numbered, and that is the point of the tool: you cite #L45 and a reader jumps to the exact sentence. Read the lines you cite, do not paraphrase past what they say, and never present a semantic-search snippet as if you had read the paper.

Step 1 — preflight

Run this before anything else. It answers "is it installed" and "who am I" in one call.

command -v paperclip >/dev/null || echo "paperclip NOT INSTALLED"
command -v paperclip >/dev/null && { paperclip --version; [ -f .env ] && { set -a; . ./.env; set +a; }; paperclip config 2>&1 | grep -E "Auth|Health"; }
