About this plugin

The most tedious part of tracking research is hopping between browser tabs: searching arXiv, downloading a PDF, then scrolling page by page for the key ideas. xby-arxiv-paper-search folds that entire loop into a single chat turn: search by keyword, pull the latest cs.AI listings, or extract a paper full text, all without leaving your conversation.

Five tools do the heavy lifting. search_arxiv queries arXiv by keyword; get_recent_ai_papers returns the newest submissions in the AI / CS category; get_arxiv_pdf_url hands you a direct PDF download link; parse_paper_content extracts the full text, preferring the HTML version and falling back to PDF when needed; and set_xby_apikey persists your API key so you never re-enter it after a restart. The workflow chains naturally from discovery to reading.

If you follow machine learning, NLP, or other frontier topics and need to skim or extract key points quickly for writing, teaching, or tech due-diligence, this plugin cuts what used to be a ten-minute tab-shuffling routine down to one sentence, freeing your focus for the deep reading that actually matters.

Use Cases

  • Search arXiv by keyword and extract key content in one turn
  • Pull the latest cs.AI submissions to stay on top of the field
  • Parse paper text from HTML or PDF to skip manual page-by-page reading

Best For

  • Researchers and academics tracking AI/ML frontier papers
  • Graduate students and TAs who need to extract key points quickly
  • Engineers doing tech reviews or competitive research
