paperport

paperport is a small desk for arXiv work. It searches the public arXiv API, pulls back titles, authors, dates, categories and abstracts in a tidy shape, fetches the abstract for a single paper when you have its id, and keeps a local shelf of papers you have downloaded so you can list and re-read them later without going back to the network.

Install

npx @reneturcios/paperport search "small language models"

Or run the container image:

docker run -i ghcr.io/cloudcorprecords/paperport

The container defaults to the MCP server (see below). Pass CLI arguments to use it as a CLI instead.

CLI

Commands print JSON, except read, which prints the stored paper.

# Search, with optional filters
paperport search "attention patterns" --max-results 5 \
  --date-from 2024-01-01 --date-to 2024-12-31 --categories cs.CL,cs.LG

# One paper's abstract
paperport abstract 2401.12345

# Store a paper locally, then list and read the shelf
paperport download 2401.12345
paperport list
paperport read 2401.12345

paperport --version

Downloaded papers are stored as <paper_id>.md files in the storage directory: the PAPERPORT_STORAGE_DIR environment variable when set, otherwise ./papers.

Exit codes: 0 on success, 1 when a paper cannot be found, fetched or read, 2 for usage errors.

MCP server

One bin serves both faces. The mcp subcommand starts a stdio MCP server:

npx -y @reneturcios/paperport mcp

MCP client configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "paperport": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@reneturcios/paperport", "mcp"]
    }
  }
}
Tools
ToolInputWhat it returns
search_papersquery (string, required), max_results (integer, optional), date_from / date_to (strings, optional, YYYY-MM-DD), categories (array of strings, optional)A list of papers: id, title, summary, authors, published, categories, and pdf_url.
get_abstractpaper_id (string, required)The paper's paper_id, title, abstract, authors, published, and pdf_url.
download_paperpaper_id (string, required)Stores the paper locally (see the gap note below) and returns its paper_id, title, storage path, and pdf_url.
list_papers(no input)The papers on the local shelf: each stored file's paper_id and path.
read_paperpaper_id (string, required)The stored paper's paper_id and full text content. Errors when the paper has not been downloaded.

Paper ids may be given bare (2401.12345), with a version suffix (2401.12345v2), or as a full arxiv.org/abs/... URL; they are normalised before use.

Known gap: downloaded papers are abstract files, not converted PDFs

The original tool this rebuilds converts each downloaded paper's PDF to markdown. paperport does not do that conversion: download_paper stores the paper's metadata and abstract — title, authors, categories, dates, and links to the abstract page and the PDF — as a markdown file, and read_paper returns that file. The full text of the paper is only available through the linked PDF. This is a deliberate, documented limitation of this version, not a silent one.

Development

npm install
npm run build   # tsc -> dist/
npm test        # node test runner over test/*.test.ts, no network
npm run dev     # run the CLI from source via tsx
