FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How can I search for research papers by a specific author?

You can use the search_osti_records tool and provide the author's name in the author parameter. The agent will return a list of matching records from the OSTI.GOV repository.

What is the difference between searching OSTI records and Data Explorer records?

Use search_osti_records for general research information like publications and reports. Use search_data_explorer_records specifically when you are looking for scientific datasets.

Can I reserve a DOI for my research before it is public?

Yes, if you have an E-Link token, you can use the reserve_doi action. You'll need to provide the title, product type, and your site ownership code.

How does Cline connect to MCP servers?

Cline reads MCP server configurations from its settings panel in VS Code. Add the server URL and Cline discovers all available tools on initialization.
