Connects Claude directly to arXiv's academic paper database through a Cloudflare Workers deployment. You get nine tools including advanced_search with date filtering and sorting, search_by_author with affiliation data, get_paper_versions for tracking revisions, and export_bibliography for BibTeX output. The server also includes AI-focused prompts for literature reviews, research gap identification, and trend analysis across time periods. Runs as a remote MCP server over SSE, so no local installation needed. Reach for this when you're doing literature reviews, building research assistants, or need to pull academic paper metadata and citations into your workflow without hitting rate limits or parsing XML responses yourself.
