What it is

A semi-automated research assistant for academic research and software development. It supports Claude Code, Codex CLI, Kimi Code CLI, and OpenCode across literature review, coding, experiments, reporting, writing, and project knowledge management. The project aims to cover the full research lifecycle from ideation to publication.

How it works

The repository presents a workflow that routes work through stages: ideation, literature, paper notes, knowledge base, experiments, analysis, reporting, and writing/publication. It includes a modular set of skills, agents, and workflow commands intended to integrate with Zotero and Obsidian, and to operate across multiple CLI tools (Claude Code, Codex CLI, Kimi Code CLI, OpenCode).

Getting started

Getting started is described under Quick Start with a full installation option:

git clone https://github.com/Galaxy-Dawn/claude-scholar.git /tmp/claude-scholar
bash /tmp/claude-scholar/scripts/setup.sh

The installer is described as backup-aware and incremental-update friendly, with steps to preserve existing files and to install the repo-managed files to specific locations. It also notes how to update and uninstall:

cd /tmp/claude-scholar
git pull --ff-only
bash scripts/setup.sh

cd /tmp/claude-scholar
bash scripts/uninstall.sh

There is also a Minimal Installation option partially shown in the README excerpt.

Recent releases

Latest release is v1.0.0 (Claude Scholar) dated 2026-02-25. The description indicates it is the initial release with Claude Scholar configuration for academic research and software development, covering the full research lifecycle.
