Checking that the SKILL.md file is still in the repository.

Search, read, and query research papers via Feynman's alphaXiv-backed alpha tools. Use when the user asks about academic papers, wants to find research on a topic, needs to read a specific paper, ask questions about a paper, inspect a paper's code repository, or manage paper annotations.

Install

npx vskill@latest install paramjani21/feynman/alpha-research

SKILL.md

The same SKILL.md was published earlier as companion-inc/feynman/alpha-research.

Alpha Research CLI

Use visible Feynman alpha tools when they are available. For shell commands, use feynman alpha ...; do not call the user's bare global alpha binary because it can be stale or unpatched.

Commands

CommandDescription
feynman alpha search "<query>"Search papers. Prefer --mode semantic by default; use --mode keyword only for exact-term lookup and --mode agentic for broader retrieval.
feynman alpha get <arxiv-id-or-url>Fetch paper content and any local annotation
feynman alpha get --full-text <arxiv-id>Get raw full text instead of AI report
feynman alpha ask <arxiv-id> "<question>"Ask a question about a paper's PDF
feynman alpha code <github-url> [path]Read files from a paper's GitHub repo. Use / for overview
feynman alpha annotate <paper-id> "<note>"Save a persistent annotation on a paper
feynman alpha annotate --clear <paper-id>Remove an annotation
feynman alpha annotate --listList all annotations

Auth

Run feynman alpha login to authenticate with alphaXiv. Check status with feynman alpha status.

Examples

bash
feynman alpha search "transformer scaling laws"
feynman alpha search --mode agentic "efficient attention mechanisms for long context"
feynman alpha get 2106.09685
feynman alpha ask 2106.09685 "What optimizer did they use?"
