PapersFlow
This is PapersFlow's production hosted server for academic literature research. It exposes eight tools including search, fetch, verify_citation, find_related_papers, and get_citation_graph for building citation networks and validating references. The service runs at doxa.papersflow.ai/mcp with OAuth protection, so authenticated and paid tools require a PapersFlow account beyond the public search surface. It supports Cline, Codex, Claude Code, Gemini CLI, and other MCP clients over streamable HTTP. Reach for this when you need programmatic access to paper metadata, citation verification, or related work discovery without manually querying academic databases. The OAuth flow opens automatically on first connection in supported clients.
