This plugin provides academic paper analysis capabilities for conferences.

Paper Report Skill Workflow

The following flowchart describes the automated process of generating a paper analysis report from a conference URL:

    A[Start: Conference Webpage URL] --> B[Step 1: Paper List & Metadata Extraction]
    B --> C{For Each Paper}

    D --> E[Step 3: Citation Search & Metadata Collection]
    end
    
    E --> F{More Papers?}
    F -- Yes --> C
    F -- No --> G[Step 3: Batch BibTeX Generation & Export]

    H --> J[Step 5: Advanced Reference Chain Analysis - Optional]
    J --> I[End: Generate Final Markdown Reports]

Key Components

• Metadata Extraction: Primarily uses the extract_papers.py script with Crawl4AI to convert conference pages into structured content and generate papers.json.
• PDF Retrieval: Integrates paper-search-mcp and academic-mcp to find and download full-text PDFs.
• Batch BibTeX: Optimized process using the batch_bibtex.py script to search DBLP and export a unified .bib file, replacing multiple manual MCP calls.
• Reference Analysis: (In development) Specialized tools for citation graph exploration.
