sciverse-paper-search is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from LazyAGI/LazyMind. It costs 68 tokens per session (1,465 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A guide to searching scientific literature and retrieving paper evidence through Sciverse, a service for finding and reading research publications.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to find papers, inspect metadata such as authors, dates, venues, and DOIs, retrieve content for selected results, and prepare cited research lists or comparisons.
Why use it?
It helps screen papers and build evidence-based summaries without assuming access to unsupported files, figures, or research databases.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

sciverse-paper-search scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 12d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Sciverse Paper Search Skill

Overview

Use this skill when the user needs scientific literature retrieval, paper metadata screening, citation-ready evidence, or a research synthesis grounded in Sciverse search results.

This skill is adapted to the current LazyLLM SciverseSearch implementation. It must only rely on the currently supported tool capabilities:

  • sciverse_search.search
  • sciverse_search.meta_search
  • sciverse_search.meta_catalog
  • sciverse_search.get_content

Do not assume Sciverse MCP tools, resource APIs, binary attachment downloads, figure/table downloads, DianShi, or SeqStudio capabilities are available unless the runtime explicitly exposes those tools.

When To Use

Use this skill for:

  • Finding scientific papers on a research topic.
  • Retrieving citable evidence snippets for a scientific question.
  • Screening papers by year, venue, DOI, author, title, or metadata fields.
  • Building paper lists for literature reviews.
  • Reading fuller text for selected Sciverse results when doc_id is available.
  • Producing cited summaries, comparisons, or evidence tables from Sciverse results.

Do not use this skill for:

  • Downloading paper images, figures, tables, PDFs, or binary resources.
  • Chemical retrosynthesis, molecule/reaction search, or DianShi workflows.
  • Protein sequence/structure annotation or SeqStudio workflows.
  • Claims that require full-text access when only abstracts or snippets are available.

Available Tool Capabilities

sciverse_search.search

Use this for normal Agent retrieval.

Recommended defaults:

query=<research question or paper topic>
topk=5
search_type="agentic"
include_content=true

Use search_type="agentic" when the user asks a natural-language scientific question and needs evidence passages.

Use search_type="meta" when the user mainly needs paper metadata. You may pass year_from and year_to for year constraints.

Current implementation notes:

  • topk is capped at 10.
  • Results are normalized to title, url, snippet, source, and extra.
  • extra may include doc_id, doi, year, venue, authors, score, chunk_id, page_no, offset, and content.

sciverse-paper-search is a skill published in the GitHub repository LazyAGI/LazyMind (77 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 68 tokens to every session and 1,465 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
