arxiv-reader

Read and analyze arXiv papers directly from the workspace. Converts LaTeX source into clean text suitable for LLM analysis.

Description

Fetches arXiv papers, flattens LaTeX includes, and returns clean text for LLM analysis. Works standalone (downloads directly from arXiv) or delegates to the container arXiv server when available. Results are cached locally for instant repeat access.

Usage Examples

"Read the paper 2301.00001 from arXiv"
"What sections does paper 2405.12345 have?"
"Get the abstract of 2312.09876"
"Fetch paper 2301.00001 without the appendix"

Process

Quick look — Use arxiv_abstract to get a paper's abstract before committing to a full read
Survey structure — Use arxiv_sections to understand the paper's outline
Deep read — Use arxiv_fetch to get the full flattened LaTeX for analysis

Tools

arxiv_fetch

Fetch the full flattened LaTeX source of an arXiv paper.

Parameters:

arxiv_id (string, required): arXiv paper ID (e.g. 2301.00001 or 2301.00001v2)
remove_comments (boolean, optional): Strip LaTeX comments (default: true)
remove_appendix (boolean, optional): Remove appendix sections (default: false)
figure_paths (boolean, optional): Replace figures with file paths only (default: false)

Returns: { content: string, arxiv_id: string, cached: boolean }

Example:

{ "arxiv_id": "2301.00001", "remove_appendix": true }

arxiv_sections

List all sections and subsections of an arXiv paper.

Parameters:

arxiv_id (string, required): arXiv paper ID

Returns: { arxiv_id: string, sections: string[] }

Example:

{ "arxiv_id": "2301.00001" }

arxiv_abstract

Extract just the abstract from an arXiv paper.

Parameters:

arxiv_id (string, required): arXiv paper ID

Returns: { arxiv_id: string, abstract: string }

Example:

{ "arxiv_id": "2301.00001" }

Notes

All results are cached locally — repeat requests are instant
Works standalone (no Docker required) or with the container arXiv server
Paper IDs support version suffixes (e.g. 2301.00001v2)
Very large papers may take 10-30 seconds on first fetch
arxiv_abstract uses the arXiv Atom API for fast metadata retrieval in standalone mode
