What it can do
| Tool | What it says it does |
|---|---|
extract_from_papers | Pull a structured table out of up to 50 papers in ONE call: you define the columns (`fields`: each a snake_case `name`, a `type`, and an optional `description`) and an `instruction`, and the server reads each paper's full text and returns one typed row per paper. Use this when you need the SAME… |
gather_evidence | Use for a multi-part research task when you need to know whether your gathered evidence is SUFFICIENT, what is still MISSING, and what to search next, without the tool writing the answer. Pass the goal in `task` and your first search angles in `queries`; the server runs one corpus search per… |
get_conference_papers | Use this when the user asks for papers from a specific conference (optionally a year), e.g. “most-cited NeurIPS 2024 papers”, “show me CCS 2025 accepted papers”, or “what's new in security at IEEE S&P this year”. `sort` is `recency` (newest first, default) or `citations` (most-cited first); page… |
get_paper_citations | Use this when the user asks “what does this paper build on”, “what built on this”, traces influence chains, asks for follow-up work, or wants the lineage of an idea. `direction=cited_by` returns indexed papers that cite this one; `direction=cites` returns this paper's parsed references (which may… |
get_paper_fulltext | Use this when the user asks “what does the methods/results section say”, wants to quote a specific section, or when the abstract isn't enough to verify a claim. Heavy: only call once a paper looks relevant from `search_papers`, `search_related_papers`, or `get_paper_citations`. `format=markdown`… |
get_research_guidance_doc | Use this AFTER `search_research_guidance` when you need the full text of a guidance document (not just the matched excerpt), for example to quote a passage or follow a checklist end-to-end. Pass the `doc_id` from a search hit. |
list_conferences | Use this when the user asks “what conferences does Lune track”, “is venue X covered”, or wants a category-level browse (e.g. AI/ML, security, databases, software/systems). Pass `category` as a keyword (`ai`, `security`, ...) to narrow; it matches the conference's research area. |
search_papers | Searches full-text, peer-reviewed papers from top-tier venues. Use for questions about academic papers, research topics, literature reviews, surveys, “what's been published on X”, named methods, or any claim that should be backed by a peer-reviewed citation. Returns each paper's metadata and the… |
search_papers_many | Use for a LITERATURE SWEEP or survey: a research question broad enough to need several angles, e.g. "what's been done on X", a related-work section, or a state-of-the-field summary. One call returns one merged, ranked list of the papers the angles found, with the passages that matched. For a… |
search_related_papers | Given a paper_id, return the most semantically similar papers by embedding distance, NOT by citation links. Use for “more papers like this one” / “adjacent work on the same topic”. For papers this one cites or that cite it, use `get_paper_citations` instead. Each hit carries metadata, abstract… |
search_research_guidance | Use before recommending experimental design, ablation strategy, evaluation metrics, baselines, reproducibility, paper structure, related-work organisation, venue choice, response-to-reviewers, scientific writing, or methodology in general. Searches the Lune guidance corpus, curated from senior… |
send_feedback | Sends the user's feedback about Lune to the Lune team. Use it when the user says something about Lune itself (papers it missed, results that did not fit, an error, something that helped, an idea): offer to pass it on, show the user the message you would send, and call this only after they agree… |
verify_claims | Fact-check 1 to 25 natural-language claims against Lune's peer-reviewed corpus in ONE call. For each claim the server retrieves the most relevant passages and an LLM judges the claim ONLY against those passages (never outside knowledge), returning one verdict per claim: `supported`, `unsupported`… |
