Use when the user asks about academic literature, research papers, scholarly works, authors, citations, institutions, journals, or any academic metadata. Trigger when users want to search for papers, find author profiles, track citations, discover related works, or explore academic topics. Also use when users mention DOIs, ORCIDs, h-index, publication venues, or research metrics. Search academic papers via OpenAlex API for open citation data, institutional affiliations, and funding information. Use when user says "openalex search", "search openalex", "open citation graph", or wants comprehensive academic metadata beyond arXiv/Semantic Scholar.
Both copies target OpenAlex, but they prescribe different tools and workflows. The first copy is a Python fetcher skill (openalex_fetch.py) with a strict resolution chain, optional .env API key, and filters like min-citations and type. The second copy is a Node CLI skill (openalex-skill) with entity types, ID formats, cited-by/references/related, autocomplete, group-by, PDF download, and output formats (summary/detail/json/bibtex). Neither is a reproduction of the other; crowning one would hide a real alternative implementation and a set of capabilities the other lacks.
