Pipeworx crossref

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a straightforward Crossref research lookup helper that sends user-supplied search terms or DOIs to a disclosed Pipeworx gateway.

Install only if you are comfortable sending literature-search queries, DOIs, and ISSNs through Pipeworx. Avoid submitting private or embargoed research details, and review the npm-based mcp-remote setup before enabling the optional MCP configuration.
