alphaxiv SKILL.md skillA
alphaxiv from wanshuiyin/auto-claude-code-research-in-sleep is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add wanshuiyin/auto-claude-code-research-in-sleep/alphaxiv@git:20260929.2132036Pins git:20260929.2132036 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Quick single-paper lookup via AlphaXiv LLM-optimized summaries with tiered source fallback. Use when user says "explain this paper", "summarize paper", pastes an arXiv/AlphaXiv URL, or provides a bare arXiv ID for quick understanding - not for broad literature search.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# AlphaXiv Paper Lookup
Lookup paper: $ARGUMENTS
> Quick single-paper reader with tiered source fallback (overview → full markdown → LaTeX source). Powered by [AlphaXiv](https://www.alphaxiv.org).
## Role & Positioning
This skill is the **quick single-paper reader** that returns LLM-optimized summaries:
| Skill | Source | Best for |
|-------|--------|----------|
| `/arxiv` | arXiv API | Batch search, PDF download, metadata |
| `/deepxiv` | DeepXiv SDK | Progressive section-level reading |
| `/semantic-scholar` | S2 API | Published venue metadata, citation counts |
| **`/alphaxiv`** | **www.alphaxiv.org** | **Instant LLM-optimized summary of one paper, with LaTeX source fallback** |
**Do NOT use this skill for** topic discovery, broad literature search, or multi-paper surveys — use `/research-lit` or `/arxiv` instead.
## Constants
- **OVERVIEW_URL** = `https://www.alphaxiv.org/overview/{PAPER_ID}.md`
- **ABS_URL** = `https://www.alphaxiv.org/abs/{PAPER_ID}.md`
- **ARXIV_SRC_URL** = `https://arxiv.org/src/{PAPER_ID}`

How to install
mdr add wanshuiyin/auto-claude-code-research-in-sleep/alphaxiv@sha256:f313e596afbfc7e8The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260929.2132036, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
