1Arxiv SearchThe arxiv-search skill search arXiv physics, math, and computer science preprints using natural language queries. Powered by Valyu semantic search. # arXiv Search Search the complete arXiv database of preprints across physics, mathematics, computer science, and quantitative biology using natural language queries powered by Valyu's semantic search API. ## Why This Skill is Powerful - **No API Parameter Parsing**: Just pass natural language queries directly - no need to construct complex search parameters - **Semantic Search**: Understands the meaning of your query, not just keyword matching - **Full-Text Access**: Returns complete article content, not just abstracts - **Image Links**: Includes figures and images from papers - **Comprehensive Coverage**: Access to all of arXiv's preprint archive across multiple disciplines ## Requirements 1. Node.js 18+ (uses built-in fetch) 2. Valyu API key from https://platform.valyu.ai ($10 free credits) ## CRITICAL: Script Path Resolution The `scripts/search` commands in this documentation are relative to this skill's installation directory.1.1kinstalls2Pubmed Searchpubmed-search is a scientific-skills CLI wrapper that runs semantic full-text searches across PubMed through the Valyu API (api.valyu.ai/v1). A bash entry point delegates to a Node.js search.mjs script, exposing discoverability flags like --path and --location. Developers and researchers reach for pubmed-search when they need biomedical literature lookup without opening a browser—whether from the terminal directly or through an AI coding agent. Results support semantic search capabilities beyond keyword matching, making it useful for exploring papers during hypothesis formation, literature reviews, or bioinformatics research planning.682installs3Biomedical Searchbiomedical-search is a Node.js CLI skill in the scientific-skills repository that wraps search.mjs behind a bash entry script. It performs full-text semantic search across multiple biomedical and scientific data sources using the Valyu API at api.valyu.ai. Developers invoke it from terminal sessions or agent workflows to discover papers, datasets, and academic evidence without leaving the command line. The wrapper exposes --path, --location, and --script-dir flags for discoverability. Reach for biomedical-search when building health-tech features, reviewing clinical claims, or grounding agent answers in searchable scientific sources.672installs4Literature Searchliterature-search from yorkeccak/scientific-skills searches PubMed, arXiv, bioRxiv, and medRxiv simultaneously using natural-language queries powered by Valyu semantic search. Developers pass plain-language research questions directly without constructing complex per-database API parameters or parsing search syntax. The skill aggregates results across all four major scientific literature sources in one workflow, licensed under MIT. Researchers reach for literature-search when surveying biomedical papers, preprints, or cross-disciplinary evidence before writing proposals, designing experiments, or grounding technical decisions in published science.573installs
