All the\nfederation, deduplication, normalization, and caching happen on Open Idea's\nside. This repo is fully standalone — no dependency on the Open Idea codebase.\n\n## Documentation\n\n| Doc | Contents |\n|---|---|\n| [docs/setup.md](docs/setup.md) | Install, configure, and run the server. |\n| [docs/architecture.md](docs/architecture.md) | Components, flows, and a Mermaid diagram. |\n| [docs/api-reference.md](docs/api-reference.md) | Every tool, resource, and data model. |\n| [docs/claude-desktop.md](docs/claude-desktop.md) | Claude Desktop configuration (macOS/Windows/Linux). |\n| [docs/claude-code.md](docs/claude-code.md) | Claude Code registration & verification. |\n| [docs/mcp-inspector.md](docs/mcp-inspector.md) | Testing with the MCP Inspector. |\n| [docs/troubleshooting.md](docs/troubleshooting.md) | 401s, newline keys, startup failures, and more. |\n| [docs/development.md](docs/development.md) | Repo layout, env setup, tests, workflow. |\n\n## 🚀 Getting Started\n\nThis tool connects Claude directly to Open Idea's academic and data search\nengines. It runs entirely on your local machine using your personal API key.\nFollow these 4 simple steps to get set up.\n\n### Prerequisites\n\nMake sure you have Python 3.10 or higher installed on your computer. You can\ncheck this by running `python --version` in your terminal.\n\n---\n\n### Step 1: Get Your Free Open Idea API Key\n\nBecause this tool queries live databases on your behalf, you need a personal\naccess key.\n\n1.
