Semantic Scholar integration for multiplayer collaboration with AI agents using Claude Code or Codex

Retrieve detailed information about an author from Semantic Scholar, including name, affiliations, publication statistics (paperCount, citationCount, h-index), external IDs (ORCID, DBLP), and optionally papers. By default returns authorId and name only. Use 'fields' parameter for additional data: name, url, affiliations, homepage, externalIds, paperCount, citationCount, hIndex, papers (supports nested fields like papers.title, papers.year). Limit: 10 MB per request.

Retrieves a list of papers authored or co-authored by a specific researcher identified by their unique Semantic Scholar author ID. This endpoint is particularly useful for conducting literature reviews, analyzing an author's body of work, or tracking a researcher's publications over time. It provides a comprehensive view of an author's contributions to their field of study, including all papers where the author is listed as an author regardless of their authorship position. The response may be paginated for authors with a large number of publications, and additional API calls might be necessary to retrieve the complete list of papers. Use the offset and limit parameters to control pagination.

Retrieves the list of authors for a specific paper identified by its unique paper_id in the Semantic Scholar database. This endpoint returns detailed author information including authorId and name (returned by default), and optionally: url, affiliations, homepage, paperCount, citationCount, hIndex, and papers (with subfields). Use the 'fields' parameter to request additional author fields beyond the defaults. The response is paginated and includes offset/limit parameters for retrieving large author lists. This tool is ideal for exploring paper collaborations, identifying author affiliations, or building author networks. It accepts various paper ID formats including Semantic Scholar IDs, DOI, ARXIV, PMID, and others.

Retrieves a list of citations for a specific academic paper using its unique Semantic Scholar paper ID. This endpoint is useful for researchers and developers who want to explore the impact and connections of a particular academic work within the broader scientific literature. It provides information about other papers that have cited the specified paper, allowing users to trace the influence of research and discover related works. The endpoint should be used when analyzing the reception and impact of a specific paper, building citation networks, or conducting bibliometric studies. It does not provide the full text of citing papers or detailed information about the citations beyond basic metadata.
