What Food Fetch does

Food Fetch lawfully acquires full text for academic articles from open access sources, the user's reference-manager library, or the user's logged-in institutional session. It is used to turn DOIs or reference lists into read PDFs and a manifest of what was obtained.

Food Fetch is cataloged under Automation on DirSkills. Food Fetch comes from a repository tagged academic-writing, ai-agents, anthropic, claude-code and claude-skills.

Excerpt

Food-Fetch — Lawful Full-Text Acquisition

Turn a list of references or DOIs into read full text, so food-research, food-deep-research, and food-review build their knowledge base from the actual papers rather than abstracts. Original work; the routing/manifest architecture is informed by the open-source nature-downloader skill (see the repo README Acknowledgements). Legal-access-only, and it never fabricates — a paper that was not obtained is recorded as not obtained, never summarized as if read.

First-run setup — ask once, remember, remind if skipped

On the first run that needs full text, help the user set up access — this is what decides whether the review reads real papers. Check python3 scripts/food_fetch_setup.py status (exit 3 = not set up):

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
