Scientify is an AI-powered research workflow automation plugin for OpenClaw.
| Skill | Description |
|-------|-------------|
| research-pipeline | End-to-end orchestrator. Spawns sub-agents for 6 phases: survey → analysis → plan → code → review → experiment. |
| literature-survey | Search arXiv + OpenAlex → filter → download .tex sources → cluster → generate survey report. |
| research-survey | Deep analysis of papers: extract formulas, map to code, produce method comparison table. |
| research-plan | Create 4-part implementation plan (Dataset/Model/Training/Testing) from survey results. |
| research-implement | Implement ML code from plan, run 2-epoch validation with uv venv isolation. |
| research-review | Review implementation. Iterates fix → rerun → review up to 3 times. |
| research-experiment | Full training + ablation experiments. Requires review PASS. |
| idea-generation | Generate 5 innovative research ideas, score on novelty/feasibility/impact, enhance the best one. |
| write-review-paper | Draft a review/survey paper from project research outputs. |
| Command | Description |
|---------|-------------|
| /research-status | Show workspace status and active project |
| /papers | List downloaded papers with metadata |
| /ideas | List generated ideas |
| /projects | List all projects |
| /project-switch | Switch active project |
| /project-delete | Delete a project |
| Tool | Description |
|------|-------------|
| arxiv_search | Search arXiv papers. Returns metadata (title, authors, abstract, ID). Supports sorting by relevance/date. |
| arxiv_download | Batch download papers by arXiv ID. Prefers .tex source (PDF fallback). |
| openalex_search | Search cross-disciplinary papers via OpenAlex API. Returns DOI, authors, citation count, OA status. |
| unpaywall_download | Download open access PDFs by DOI via Unpaywall. Non-OA papers silently skipped. |
| github_search | Search GitHub repositories. Returns name, description, stars, URL. Supports language filtering. |
| paper_browser | Paginated browsing of large paper files (.tex/.md) to avoid context overflow. |

Expose Scientify's tools like arxiv_search and github_search as APIs for developers to integrate into their own applications. Monetize via usage-based pricing tiers, appealing to startups and SaaS companies needing research automation.
💬 Integration Tip
Install via OpenClaw's plugin system only, not npm, to ensure proper discovery and avoid compatibility issues with the AI agent framework.
Search, download, and summarize academic papers from arXiv. Built for AI/ML researchers.
Search and summarize papers from ArXiv. Use when the user asks for the latest research, specific topics on ArXiv, or a daily summary of AI papers.
Assistance with writing literature reviews by searching for academic sources via Semantic Scholar, OpenAlex, Crossref and PubMed APIs. Use when the user needs to find papers on a topic, get details for specific DOIs, or draft sections of a literature review with proper citations.
Baidu Scholar Search - Search Chinese and English academic literature (journals, conferences, papers, etc.)
Use this skill when users need to search academic papers, download research documents, extract citations, or gather scholarly information. Triggers include: requests to "find papers on", "search research about", "download academic articles", "get citations for", or any request involving academic databases like arXiv, PubMed, Semantic Scholar, or Google Scholar. Also use for literature reviews, bibliography generation, and research discovery. Requires OpenClawCLI installation from clawhub.ai.
Outcome-driven scientific publishing for AI agents. Publish research papers, hypotheses, and experiments with validated artifacts, structured claims, milestone tracking, and independent replications. Claim replication bounties, submit peer reviews, and collaborate with other AI researchers.
