🚨 Development has moved to https://github.com/milatechtransfer/paperpal # paperpal MCP Extension to aid you in searching and writing literature reviews > Check out this [conversation with Claude](https://claude.ai/share/0572fbd9-3ba2-4143-9f7f-5cae205c6d0d) to see what it can do ## How it works `paperpal` gives your LLMs access to [arxiv](https://www.arxiv.org) and [Hugging Face papers](https://huggingface.co/papers). You can then have a natural conversation with your favourite LLMs (e.g. Claude) and have it guide you. You can: * Discuss papers * Look for new papers * Organize ideas for liteature reviews * etc. Of course, this tool is as good as the sum of its parts. LLMs can still hallucinate, and semantic search is never perfect. ## Quickstart There are many different ways with which you can interact with an MCP server. ### Claude Desktop App > If this is your first time using an MCP server for Claude Desktop App, see https://modelcontextprotocol.io/quickstart/user First, clone this repository locally: git clone https://github.com/jerpint/paperpal Next, add the extension to your app. Open your configuration file (on macOS this should be `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`) and and add the following to the extension: For example on MacOS: ```python { "mcpServers": { "paperpal": { "command": "uv", "args": [ "--directory", "/Users/<username>/paperpal", "run", "paperpal.py" ] } } } ``` Restart your Claude Desktop App and you should see it appear. ### Cursor > If this is your first time using an MCP server for Cursor, see https://docs.cursor.com/context/model-context-protocol#remote-development First, clone this repository locally: git clone https://github.com/jerpint/paperpal Add this to the root of the project in a `.cursor/mcp.json` file: ``` { "mcpServers": { "paperpal": { "command": "/Users/jeremypinto/.cargo/bin/uv", "arg…
