Tools

Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions

NameDescription
cinii_search_articlesA

Search CiNii Research for journal articles. Returns the unified envelope.

CiNii matches catalogued metadata and ANDs a multi-word query, so an un-indexed compound returns zero even when related work exists — a ZERO_CONJUNCTION diagnostic marks this; vary the rendering rather than concluding the literature is absent. A SCRIPT_LATIN_QUERY diagnostic means the query searched romanized metadata only. The same string may behave very differently on J-STAGE (full text). Foundational monographs sit in cinii_search_books, not the article index.

cinii_search_booksC

Search CiNii Research for books and monographs. Returns the unified envelope.

cinii_search_dissertationsC

Search CiNii Research for doctoral dissertations. Returns the unified envelope.

cinii_search_kakenA

Search KAKEN (科研費) research projects. Returns the unified envelope (record_type 'project').

cinii_search_allA

Cross-type search across all CiNii content. Returns the unified envelope.

Records are emitted with record_type 'article' as a default; the cross search mixes types and CiNii does not always disambiguate them in the OpenSearch response.

cinii_search_researchersC

Search for researchers in CiNii. Returns the unified envelope (record_type 'researcher').

Note: researcher affiliation is not carried by the record schema; the researcher name occupies the title field and the profile URL the ids.url_ja field.

cinii_get_recordA

Fetch a single CiNii record by URL or CRID. Returns the unified envelope (operation 'get_record').
