PaperBD Study Paper

Guide the user from paper identification to answering questions in Paper Breakdown.

1. Identify the paper

First, find the paper's arXiv ID.

  • If the user already gave a valid arXiv ID, use it.
  • If the user gave only a title, author, or vague description, first do a web search to find the arXiv ID.
  • If the web search does not produce a clear arXiv ID, search export.arxiv.org second.
  • Never guess or infer the arXiv ID from partial information.
  • Never spend excessive effort trying to recover the arXiv ID. If the web search and export.arxiv.org search both fail, ask the user to provide the arXiv ID directly.
  • If multiple papers could match, ask one targeted follow-up question or ask the user to provide the arXiv ID directly.
  • Do not proceed to PaperBD commands until you have a specific arXiv ID.

2. Verify that paperbd is installed

  • Ask the user to run paperbd --help if needed.
