SciPaperlib

A local research library for collecting publications and retrieving inspectable, revision-bound evidence. No LLM, embedding service, or API key is required.

The distribution and Python import name are scipaperlib. Commands scipaperlib and spl are equivalent; spl-tui launches spl --tui.

python -m pip install scipaperlib
scipaperlib demo ./demo-library
scipaperlib search --library ./demo-library --term mass --term "energy loss" --json
scipaperlib tui --library ./demo-library

Commands default to ./papers in the current directory. On first use, the CLI and TUI offer to create it and continue. Scripts can pass --init-library; spl init also creates ./papers by default.

A fixed TUI activity panel shows progress and outcomes; CLI progress goes to stderr. The TUI prevents overlapping write operations and supports stopping imports after the current request.

Add papers from the TUI's paste area and remove a selected paper with confirmation. The CLI equivalent is spl remove PAPER_ID; removal archives files by default, while --delete-files permanently deletes them.

The Textual TUI is installed by default. Optional extras pdf and mcp add PDF extraction and the MCP server. The tui extra remains accepted for compatibility. See the guide for imports, provenance, recovery, and agent access.
