Traction scoreGitHub stars can be faked, so popularity alone can be misleading. Traction Score looks for broader signs of real attention, adoption, and active maintenance.
Description
Paper-fetch takes a DOI, an arXiv ID, or a paper title and walks a priority chain of open-access and institutional sources until it finds the PDF. It helps researchers, literature reviewers, and AI agents who need reliable paper access without manually hunting across Unpaywall, Semantic Scholar, arXiv, PubMed Central, bioRxiv, publisher sites, and Sci-Hub mirrors. A dedicated institutional mode adds a rate-limited publisher-direct fallback for subscribers.
