Api Endpoint

2s

Unified scientific literature search across arXiv (preprints), PubMed (biomedical), and Semantic Scholar (cross-field, with citation counts). Returns a flat array of papers with stable schema: source, sourceId, doi, title, authors, abstract, year, publishedAt, citationCount, url, pdfUrl. Partial failures surface in the errors array rather than failing the whole call. Optional filters: since (YYYY-MM-DD), sources (subset), limit (max 20 per source).
