Tools

Tool	Price	What it does
`search_papers`	$0.01	Paper search by query/year/field/venue/citations/open-access
`paper_detail`	free	Full record — abstract, authors, citations, references, PDF
`citation_graph`	$0.01	Papers citing this / referenced by it (live OpenAlex)
`author_profile`	$0.01	h-index, papers, citations, primary field, recent activity
`trending_research`	$0.01	Trending topics + most-cited recent papers
`similar_papers`	$0.05	Semantic related-work finder via embeddings (pgvector) — premium
`daily_brief`	$10	Curated daily trending-research digest (premium)
`brief_summary`	$0.50	Top-5 signals — a sample of `daily_brief`
`mint_info`	free	FoundryNet Data Network provenance info

Free tier: 25 paid-tool queries/day per agent. After that the tool returns an HTTP-402 with payment instructions — complete payment, then re-call with the same args plus payment_tx=<reference>. An Authorization: Bearer fnet_… key bypasses the paywall.

Sources

Daily (~4am PT): OpenAlex (primary, keyless, rich metadata + citations), arXiv (CS/physics/math/bio preprints), PubMed (biomed). Abstracts are embedded with fastembed (bge-small) for similar_papers (pgvector cosine). citation_graph and author_profile resolve live from OpenAlex. Semantic Scholar is an optional enhancement (TLDR/relevance via S2_API_KEY; keyless S2 rate-limits hard).
