Article Retrieval — Fetch full metadata, version history, and direct PDF download links for specific research papers using CORE IDs.
Journal & Repository Discovery — Search and inspect specific journals by ISSN or explore institutional repositories to find authoritative sources.
OAI Resolution — Resolve Open Archives Initiative (OAI) identifiers to access original metadata and repository pages.
Deep Metadata Inspection — Analyze article history and updates to ensure you are working with the latest scientific information.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do I get the PDF of a specific research article?

Use the get_article_pdf tool with the CORE Article ID. The agent will return the direct download URL for the open access PDF version of the paper.

Can I search for specific journals or repositories?

Yes! You can use search_journals or search_repositories for general text queries, or use get_journal (with an ISSN) and get_repository (with a Repository ID) for direct lookups.

What does the OAI resolution tool do?

The resolve_oai tool takes an OAI identifier (like oai:oro.open.ac.uk:75049) and resolves it to the CORE metadata page or the original repository link, helping you find the source of the research.

How does AutoGen connect to MCP servers?

Create an MCP tool adapter and assign it to one or more agents in the group chat. AutoGen agents can then call CORE (Open Access Research) tools during their conversation turns.

Can different agents have different MCP tool access?

Yes. AutoGen's role-based architecture lets you assign specific MCP tools to specific agents, so a querying agent has different capabilities than a reviewing agent.

Does AutoGen support human approval for tool calls?

Yes. Configure human-in-the-loop mode so agents pause and request approval before executing sensitive MCP tool calls.
