CRITICAL: Do NOT write your own API-querying scripts. A ready-made ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/crawl.py script is provided. Your job is to decide what to search for, run the script, supplement with web search, and curate the results.
Extract from the deployment prompt:
Generate query strings from the topic and any provided search terms. For each concept cluster:
Aim for 15-30 total queries. More queries = better coverage but slower.
crawl.py for structured API searchThe script ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/crawl.py queries both DBLP and OpenAlex APIs, deduplicates results, and saves to JSON. It takes a configuration file as input to determine which queries to run, where to save the results, and any filtering criteria like year range.
Create a config file using the Write tool. Save it to the output directory as crawl_config.json:
{
"queries": ["query1", "query2", "..."],
"output": "<output-directory>/papers_raw.json",
"years": "2020-2026"
}
Run the script:
python ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/crawl.py --config <output-directory>/crawl_config.json
The script will print progress and a summary. Read the output papers_raw.json to proceed with curation.
Structured APIs miss preprints, blog posts, workshop talks, and very recent work. Use WebSearch to fill these gaps.
Run 5-10 web searches with queries like:
"<key concept>" site:arxiv.org (recent preprints)"<key concept>" site:openreview.net (workshop/conference submissions)"<key concept>" <key author name> (specific researchers)"<key concept>" blog OR tutorial (blog posts, informal write-ups)"<topic>" 2025 2026 (very recent work the APIs may not have indexed yet)For promising results, optionally use WebFetch to grab the page and extract title, authors, year, and abstract.
Add any new papers found to the collection. Deduplicate against what crawl.py already found (by title).
Read papers_raw.json and review the collected papers. Assign relevance scores based on the research idea:
For high and medium papers, add:
relevance: "high" or "medium"relevance_note: 1-sentence explanation of how it relates to the ideaUse the Write tool to save the curated set (high + medium only) to papers.json in the output directory.
Print a summary: total papers collected (raw), papers after curation, counts by relevance level, and a short note on any interesting patterns or gaps in the literature.
