How does this skill handle API rate limits?

The underlying implementation includes automatic delays between requests to respect bioRxiv's server requirements and ensure reliable data collection without being blocked.

Is it possible to download full-text papers?

Yes, the skill includes a dedicated function for downloading preprint PDFs directly using their DOI, allowing for offline reading or automated text analysis.

What data can I retrieve from bioRxiv using this skill?

You can retrieve comprehensive metadata including titles, abstracts, DOIs, author lists, institutional affiliations, publication dates, and direct links to PDF or HTML versions.

Can I use this for trend analysis?

Absolutely. By searching within specific date ranges and categories, you can export results to analyze publication frequency, emerging research topics, and author influence over time.

Can I filter searches by specific scientific fields?

Yes, the skill supports filtering by over 25 categories such as genomics, neuroscience, biochemistry, immunology, and bioengineering.
