```
)
User mentions a paper ID (e.g.
```
2401.12345
```
)
User asks you to explain, summarize, or analyze a research paper
User shares an alphaxiv URL (e.g.
```
alphaxiv.org/overview/2401.12345
```
)

用户分享arxiv链接（例如：
```
arxiv.org/abs/2401.12345
```
）
用户提及论文ID（例如：
```
2401.12345
```
）
用户要求你解释、总结或分析某篇研究论文
用户分享alphaxiv链接（例如：
```
alphaxiv.org/overview/2401.12345
```
）

Workflow

工作流程

Step 1: Extract the paper ID

步骤1：提取论文ID

Parse the paper ID from whatever the user provides:

Input	Paper ID
`https://arxiv.org/abs/2401.12345`	`2401.12345`
`https://arxiv.org/pdf/2401.12345`	`2401.12345`
`https://alphaxiv.org/overview/2401.12345`	`2401.12345`
`2401.12345v2`	`2401.12345v2`
`2401.12345`	`2401.12345`

从用户提供的内容中解析论文ID：

输入内容	论文ID
`https://arxiv.org/abs/2401.12345`	`2401.12345`
`https://arxiv.org/pdf/2401.12345`	`2401.12345`
`https://alphaxiv.org/overview/2401.12345`	`2401.12345`
`2401.12345v2`	`2401.12345v2`
`2401.12345`	`2401.12345`

Step 2: Fetch the machine-readable report

步骤2：获取机器可读报告

bash

curl -s "https://alphaxiv.org/overview/{PAPER_ID}.md"

This returns the intermediate machine-readable report — a structured, detailed analysis of the paper optimized for LLM consumption. One call, plain markdown, no JSON parsing.

If this returns 404, the report hasn't been generated for this paper yet.

bash

curl -s "https://alphaxiv.org/overview/{PAPER_ID}.md"

这会返回中间的机器可读报告——一份针对LLM优化的、结构化的论文详细分析。一次调用，纯markdown格式，无需解析JSON。

如果返回404，说明该论文的报告尚未生成。

Step 3: If you need more detail, fetch the full paper text

步骤3：如需更多细节，获取完整论文文本

If the report doesn't contain the specific information the user is asking about (e.g. a particular equation, table, or section), fetch the full paper text:

bash

curl -s "https://alphaxiv.org/abs/{PAPER_ID}.md"

This returns the full extracted text of the paper as markdown. Only use this as a fallback — the report is usually sufficient.

If this returns 404, the full text hasn't been processed yet. As a last resort, direct the user to the PDF at

https://arxiv.org/pdf/{PAPER_ID}

如果报告中没有包含用户询问的特定信息（例如某个公式、表格或章节），请获取完整论文文本：

bash

curl -s "https://alphaxiv.org/abs/{PAPER_ID}.md"

这会返回提取后的完整论文文本，格式为markdown。仅在必要时使用此方法——通常报告就足够了。

如果返回404，说明该论文的完整文本尚未处理。作为最后的手段，引导用户访问PDF链接

https://arxiv.org/pdf/{PAPER_ID}

。

Error Handling

错误处理

404 on Step 2: Report not generated for this paper.
404 on Step 3: Full text not yet extracted for this paper.

步骤2返回404：该论文的报告尚未生成。
步骤3返回404：该论文的完整文本尚未提取。
