How this service works
Skim Signal: research papers — fresh arXiv papers across the most-followed fields (AI, ML, NLP, computer vision, robotics, multi-agent systems, security, quantum) as structured items: title, abstract excerpt, authors, PDF link. Optional ?fields= filter. Refreshed on a 10-minute cycle.
Output
A list of structured paper objects returned newest-first, each containing the paper title, an abstract excerpt, author list, and a direct PDF link from arXiv. Results are scoped to the requested fields and limited to the requested count (default 50).
Example use cases
Daily AI research briefing
“Grab the 50 most recent arXiv papers on AI and ML from Skim Signal and summarize the ones that look most significant.”
Monitoring robotics literature
“Check Skim Signal for any new robotics papers that came out today and list their titles and abstracts.”
Security research pulse check
“What are the freshest arXiv security papers right now? Pull up to 30 from Skim Signal so I can skim what's new.”

Endpoint
GEThttps://skim402.com/api/v2/signal/research/latest?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need a continuously refreshed, structured feed of arXiv papers across popular CS/AI fields without scraping arXiv directly. It is ideal for agents that need to monitor academic research trends, build daily digests, or surface new papers on a schedule. Prefer it over general web scraping when you want clean, structured metadata (title, authors, abstract, PDF link) with minimal parsing overhead and a 10-minute freshness guarantee.
Side effects
- Invalid ?fields= value returns empty or error response
- limit parameter out of range (below 1 or above 100) returns validation error
- arXiv upstream delay may mean very recent submissions aren't yet indexed
- Network or payment authorization failure results in 402 or 5xx response
- Empty result set if no new papers have been published in a niche field within the refresh window
