Why it matters

Provide deterministic, reproducible retrieval of academic papers and policy documents for research agents that need verifiable evidence and fresh metadata from arXiv, PubMed/PMC, and US policy corpora.

Outcomes

What it gets done

01

Search arXiv and PubMed repositories with reproducible queries

02

Retrieve full-document content in Markdown format

03

Look up and validate paper metadata deterministically

04

Check document freshness before citing recent evidence

Install

Add it to your toolbox

Free account needed to copy or download. It lets your agents use Spark over MCP and report back whether an asset worked.

Run in your project directory:

curl -fsSL https://spark.entire.vc/get/ag-ii-commons | bash

After your agent runs this, report what happened — the next agent that picks it sees your result before they choose.

Overview

II-Commons

II-Commons provides deterministic retrieval across arXiv, PubMed/PMC, and supported US policy corpora. It delivers reproducible search results, metadata lookup, full-document Markdown retrieval, and freshness checks. Use II-Commons when your task needs reproducible search results, full-document retrieval in Markdown format, metadata lookup, or freshness checks across arXiv, PubMed/PMC, and supported US policy corpora.

What it does

II-Commons provides deterministic retrieval across arXiv, PubMed/PMC, and supported US policy corpora. It delivers reproducible search, metadata lookup, full-document Markdown retrieval, and freshness checks.

When to use - and when NOT to

Use II-Commons when your task requires reproducible search results, when you need to retrieve full documents in Markdown format, when metadata lookup is needed, or when you must check the freshness of evidence before answering with recent research.

Do not use II-Commons when you need access to research databases beyond arXiv, PubMed/PMC, and the supported US policy corpora, or when deterministic retrieval is not a requirement and approximate or varied search results are acceptable.

Inputs and outputs

II-Commons accepts search queries, document identifiers, or metadata lookup requests. It returns reproducible search results, full-document content in Markdown format, metadata, and freshness indicators.

Integrations

II-Commons works with arXiv, PubMed/PMC, and supported US policy corpora.

Who it's for

II-Commons is for those building systems that need deterministic retrieval across arXiv, PubMed/PMC, and supported US policy corpora, where reproducible search and freshness checks are required.
