/arxiv-viewer:latest

Get the latest paper submissions for a specific arXiv category.

Usage

/arxiv-viewer:latest <category> [--max <n>]

Parameters

  • `category` (required): arXiv category code (e.g., `cs.CL`, `cs.AI`, `cs.LG`)
  • `--max` or `-m` (optional): Maximum papers to return (default: 10)

Examples

/arxiv-viewer:latest cs.CL                # Latest NLP papers
/arxiv-viewer:latest cs.AI --max 20       # Latest 20 AI papers
/arxiv-viewer:latest stat.ML              # Latest statistical ML papers

Workflow

Uses **Actionbook + agent-browser** to scrape arxiv.org:

1. `search_actions("arxiv list recent")` → get action ID 2. `get_action_by_id(action_id)` → get page selectors 3. `agent-browser open https://arxiv.org/list/{category}/recent` 4. `agent-browser get text <paper_list_selector>` 5. Parse and return paper list
