Overview

AI-generated overview

Lets an assistant find research papers and arXiv preprints and retrieve abstracts or free full text from a DOI or paper id.

What it does
Paper Finder is a remote MCP server for research literature lookup. According to its description, it finds research papers and arXiv preprints, and can return an abstract and free full text given a DOI or an id. No individual tools are listed in the manifest, so the exact tool names and parameters are not documented here.
When to use it
Useful when an assistant needs to locate scholarly references, check what a paper is about, or pull an abstract or openly available full text during a literature review or research task. Less relevant if you only need general web search or non-academic sources.
Requirements
It is a remote streamable HTTP endpoint at papers.openkrill.app, so no local runtime or package install is needed. The manifest declares no authentication, no environment variables and no headers, so no credentials appear to be required. Network access to the provider's endpoint is necessary.
Before you install
The manifest declares no authentication and no credentials, so nothing secret is requested. Requests and any DOIs or ids you supply go to a third-party service, and the server's queries and results depend on that provider. No tools are listed, so verify what it actually returns before relying on it.
