What problem does it solve? Searching academic literature, resolving DOIs, and gathering bibliometric data manually across publisher sites is slow and error-prone. This Skill provides structured CLI access to the OpenAlex database so you can find papers, authors, institutions, and citation statistics programmatically. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Entity Resolution and Lookup: Resolve names to OpenAlex IDs, fetch full metadata for works, authors, sources, institutions, topics, and more, including DOI lookups. - Filtering and Aggregation: Filter, sort, group, and sample scholarly records to compute bibliometrics such as citation counts, h-index, and publication trends by year or institution. - Open-Access PDF Download: Download open-access PDFs with automatic fallback to alternative locations listed in work metadata. - Use Case: Find Geoffrey Hinton's most-cited papers by resolving his author ID, filtering works by that ID, sorting by citation count, and exporting the slimmed results to JSON. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to use the OpenAlex skill to find the ten most-cited papers by a specific author and list their titles, years, and citation counts.
