# Paper Claw Skill

Intelligent multi-source paper digest generator. Automatically fetch, classify, and summarize papers with AI-powered translations in 7 languages.

## Features

- 🌐 **Multi-Source Support** — arXiv (170+ categories), extensible for CNKI, Web of Science
- 🗣️ **Multi-Language** — Chinese, English, Japanese, Korean, German, French, Spanish
- 🤖 **Multi-Provider LLM** — Kimi, OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, DeepSeek with auto-fallback
- 📧 **Email Delivery** — HTML digests with full Markdown attachment
- 👥 **Recipient Management** — JSON-based configuration
- ⚙️ **Config-Driven** — Zero-code customization
- 🔄 **State Persistence** — Auto-deduplication

## Setup

### 1. Environment Variables

Required for email delivery:

```bash
export SMTP_HOST="smtp.qq.com"
export SMTP_PORT="465"
export SMTP_USER="your-email@qq.com"
export SMTP_PASS="your-auth-code"
```

Optional for AI summaries (multiple providers supported):

```bash
# Primary: Kimi AI (recommended for Chinese)
export MOONSHOT_API_KEY="sk-your-kimi-key"

# Alternatives (auto-fallback)
export OPENAI_API_KEY="sk-your-openai-key"
export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY="sk-your-claude-key"
export GOOGLE_API_KEY="your-gemini-key"
export DEEPSEEK_API_KEY="sk-your-deepseek-key"
```

### 2. Recipient Configuration

Create `config/recipients.json`:

```json
{
  "recipients": [
    {"email": "prof@university.edu.cn", "name": "Professor", "enabled": true},
    {"email": "student@university.edu.cn", "name": "Student", "enabled": true}
  ]
}
```

### 3. Source & Category Configuration

Edit `config/default.json` to customize sources:

```json
{
  "sources": {
    "arxiv": {
      "enabled": true,
      "categories": [
        {"id": "cs.CL", "name": "NLP", "url": "https://arxiv.org/list/cs.CL/recent"},
        {"id": "cs.CV", "name": "Computer Vision", "url": "https://arxiv.org/list/cs.CV/recent"}
      ]
    }
  }
}
```

See `config/arxiv_categories.json` for all 170+ available categories.

### 4. Language Configuration

```json
{
  "language": {
    "default": "zh",
    "supported": ["zh", "en", "ja", "ko", "de", "fr", "es"]
  }
}
```

## Quick Start for Agents

The fastest way to configure Paper Claw is using **Presets**:

```python
from skill.example import list_presets, preview_preset, apply_preset

# Step 1: See available presets
presets = list_presets()
# Returns: [
#   {"id": "speech_audio", "name": "Speech & Audio", ...},
#   {"id": "nlp", "name": "NLP & LLM", ...},
#   {"id": "computer_vision", "name": "Computer Vision", ...},
#   {"id": "general_ai", "name": "General AI/ML", ...}
# ]

# Step 2: Preview what will be configured
preview = preview_preset("nlp")
# Shows: arXiv categories (cs.CL, cs.LG) and classification categories (LLM, RAG, etc.)

# Step 3: Apply the preset
apply_preset("nlp")  # Updates config/default.json automatically
```

## Available Presets

| Preset ID | Research Field | ArXiv Categories | Classification |
|-----------|---------------|------------------|----------------|
| `speech_audio` | Speech & Audio | cs.SD, eess.AS | Speech LLM, ASR, TTS, Enhancement, SLU, Paralinguistics, Audio |
| `nlp` | NLP & LLM | cs.CL, cs.LG, cs.AI | LLM, RAG, Agents, NLP Tasks, Evaluation |
| `computer_vision` | Computer Vision | cs.CV, cs.MM, cs.LG | Image Generation, Object Detection, Segmentation, Video Understanding, Multimodal, 3D Vision |
| `general_ai` | General AI/ML | cs.AI, cs.LG, cs.CL, cs.CV, stat.ML | Deep Learning, RL, Generative Models, Optimization, Theory, Applications |

## Detailed Usage

### List Presets

```python
from skill.example import list_presets

presets = list_presets()
for p in presets:
    print(f"{p['id']}: {p['name']}")
    print(f"  {p['description']}")
```

### Preview Before Apply

```python
from skill.example import preview_preset

# See what will be configured
preview = preview_preset("computer_vision")
print(f"ArXiv categories: {[c['id'] for c in preview['arxiv_categories']]}")
print(f"Classifications: {[c['name'] for c in preview['classification_categories']]}")
```

### Apply Preset

```python
from skill.example import apply_preset

# Apply NLP configuration
result = apply_preset("nlp")
if result["success"]:
    print(f"Applied: {result['preset_name']}")
    print(f"ArXiv: {result['arxiv_categories']}")
    print(f"Categories: {result['classification_categories']}")
```

### Fetch Papers

```bash
# Fetch today's papers (default language from config)
python scripts/main.py

# Fetch with specific language
python scripts/main.py --day 2026-03-10 --language en
python scripts/main.py --day 2026-03-10 --language ja  # Japanese

# Fetch date range
python scripts/main.py --start-date 2026-03-01 --end-date 2026-03-10
```

### Generated Outputs

- **Markdown digest:** `content/posts/YYYY-MM-DD-arxiv-audio-digest.md`
- **JSON data:** `data/processed/YYYY-MM-DD.json`
- **Raw data:** `data/raw/YYYY-MM-DD.json`

### Email Delivery

Email is automatically sent with:
- **HTML preview** — Shows first 3 papers with logo and GitHub link
- **Full Markdown attachment** — Complete digest with all papers

### Schedule Daily Runs

**GitHub Actions:**
Already configured in `.github/workflows/daily_digest.yml`

**Linux/Mac Cron:**
```bash
0 1 * * * cd /path/to/paper_claw && python scripts/main.py
```

**Windows Task Scheduler:**
```powershell
$Action = New-ScheduledTaskAction -Execute "python.exe" -Argument "scripts/main.py"
$Trigger = New-ScheduledTaskTrigger -Daily -At "09:00"
Register-ScheduledTask -TaskName "PaperClaw" -Action $Action -Trigger $Trigger
```

## AI Summary Chain

The system uses intelligent fallback across providers:

```
Kimi → OpenAI → Claude → DeepSeek → Gemini → Rule-based
```

Even without API keys, summaries are generated using rule-based methods.
