Literature Review Python Packages

scitex

Umbrella package for SciTeX — reproducible science from raw data to manuscript

scibraid

Turns a research question into a graph of hypotheses, experiments, conditions and results, built by a coding agent from the papers. Every link carries a verbatim quote checked against the source text. Graphs for different questions are pooled and aligned to surface connections no single review was looking for. No API keys, no server.

s2-mcp-server

Semantic Scholar MCP server: 14 typed tools for paper search, citation graphs, author profiles, recommendations, PyPI/Docker.

research-pipeline

Deterministic stage-based pipeline for searching, screening, downloading, converting, and summarizing academic papers. CLI + MCP server.

opencite

Academic literature search, citation management, and PDF retrieval CLI

research-hub-pipeline

AI-operable research workspace for Zotero, Obsidian, and NotebookLM. Use any two, or all three, through CLI, MCP, REST, and dashboard.

magi-research

Agent-native research workspace. A deterministic CLI that ingests arXiv / PDF / LaTeX / Zotero papers into an Obsidian-compatible knowledge graph, with local hybrid search (BM25 + vectors), claim-level provenance, and a nightly literature radar.

radiowriter

Search PubMed, screen the results and write a Radiopaedia article from them. Journal quartiles from SCImago and open access from Unpaywall. Unofficial.

litsurvey

Literature surveys with an LLM: cited state-of-the-art reports, prior-art checks, citation graphs, BibTeX export. OpenAlex + Semantic Scholar + arXiv + preprint portals. Zero dependencies.

lixplore-cli

A Unix-inspired command-line tool for searching scientific literature, built for terminal users who want speed, automation and minimal interfaces. Search PubMed, arXiv, Crossref, DOAJ and Europe PMC in one command, deduplicate results, export to BibTeX/RIS/CSV and more, and get new-paper alerts on email, Telegram, Slack and 14 other channels.

nature-academic-search

Academic Paper Search：中文科研用户的 Codex / Claude Code / DeepSeek Harness Skill + MCP；跨 CrossRef、PubMed、arXiv、OpenAlex、Europe PMC 检索去重，支持 MeSH、引用核验、引文图谱、试验检索与审计导出。

scholar-mcp

MCP server aggregating academic search sources into one unified interface for research agents

citracer

💬 Trace citation chains for any concept across research papers and render them as an interactive graph.

opendraft

Write research paper and literature review drafts with an open-source Python engine that checks citation DOIs against scholarly databases. Export PDF, Word, or LaTeX.

scholarcheck

Stop hallucinated citations - verify any reference against real metadata. Zero dependencies.

pmidcite

Get citation counts for a PubMed paper from the command line

openalex-local

Local OpenAlex database with 284M+ works, abstracts, and semantic search

academic-review-tool

The Academic Review Tool (ART) is a package for performing academic reviews and bibliometric analyses in Python. It offers capabilities for discovering, retrieving, and analysing academic literature at scale.

paperpilot

AI 文献检索与综述 Agent：支持多源检索、代码仓库定位、开放 PDF 下载、证据链与中英双语报告。

scienceai-llm

An open-source agentic harness for scientific literature analysis. Coordinates frontier models to extract data, replicate findings, and perform systematic reviews with full provenance tracking.

researchzosho

Open-source deep research assistant with citations and memory. Ask a question and it searches the web, papers, old newspapers, archives and GitHub, writes a report, checks its citations against the sources, and keeps what it found. Use it for a literature review or your family tree. It runs with a local LLM (Ollama, llama.cpp) or a hosted API.

openpaper-mcp

Generate academic paper drafts from Claude Desktop and other MCP clients with OpenPaper. Start a paper, check progress, and retrieve PDF or DOCX files.

snowballing

Provides tools for literature snowballing
