      Enables academic research through one stdio server that searches, reads, and relates papers from a large research index, searches multiple paper providers with PDF retrieval and Markdown conversion, and optionally searches a local Markdown corpus with hybrid retrieval and claim comparison. A unified search tool queries all three sources at once while preserving per-source errors.

    A3.9/5.0

    Scored across 11 tools

    Disambiguation5/5

    Each tool targets a distinct step in the literature workflow: external candidate search, ranking save, publisher-specific download, indexing, semantic retrieval, passage reading, paper listing, legacy extraction, summary reading, and configuration check. Overlaps such as search_papers vs retrieve_evidence are clearly separated by external vs local scope, and extract_paper is explicitly marked legacy and discouraged.

    Naming Consistency5/5

    All tool names use snake_case with a clear verb_noun or verb_noun_phrase pattern (index_papers, retrieve_evidence, download_elsevier_paper, check_configuration). The convention is consistent across the entire set with no mixed casing or stylistic breaks.

    Tool Count5/5

    The 11 tools are well-scoped for a literature RAG server, covering search, download, indexing, retrieval, ranking, and optional legacy summarization without excessive surface area. Each tool has a clear role in the workflow, and the optional legacy tool does not bloat the set.

    Completeness4/5

    The core scholarly RAG lifecycle is well covered: external search, ranking, publisher-specific full-text download, indexing, evidence retrieval, passage reading, and optional summarization. Minor gaps exist around generic publisher support, index deletion/cleanup, and metadata export, but agents can work around them for the stated workflow.
