Deep research over the Semantic Scholar Graph API. Covers endpoints missing from allenai's lookup skill — paper references (backward citations), recommendations, batch paper lookup (up to 500 IDs), snippet search, and multi-hop citation graph traversal (BFS forward/backward). Use when the user asks to build a citation graph, expand a literature seed, find related work, run a reference network traversal, explore what a paper cites or what cites it beyond simple lookup, or batch-resolve many…
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
# Semantic Scholar — Deep Research Purpose: fill the gaps that `semantic-scholar-lookup` (allenai) leaves — `references`, `recommendations`, `batch`, and multi-hop citation-graph traversal. ## Contents - [Dispatch Rule](#dispatch-rule-read-first) — inline vs delegate; model selection - [When to Use](#when-to-use) — trigger scenarios - [Scripts](#scripts) — `ss_client.py` + `citation_graph.py` - [Authentication & Rate Limits](#authentication--rate-limits) - [Progressive Disclosure](#progressive-disclosure) — deeper references - [Output Hygiene](#output-hygiene) - [Integration](#integration) — typical pipeline with the subagent ## Dispatch Rule (read first) Two execution modes: ### Inline (run the Bash scripts yourself) Use when the user asks for **one specific endpoint**: - "get references of paper X" → `ss_client.py references <id>` - "recommendations for paper Y" → `ss_client.py recommendations <id>` - "batch-resolve these 30 DOIs" → `ss_client.py batch ...` - "find the snippet where X is said" → `ss_client.py snippets "..."` Fast, cheap, no orchestration overhead. ### Delegate to `deep-paper-researcher` subagent …

How to install
mdr add codealive-ai/ai-driven-development/semantic-scholar-deep@sha256:531b8edcd8d5c823The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260504.4d670ef, 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.
