What the publisher says

From the doiget repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub

doiget

A single-binary CLI + stdio MCP server that turns DOIs and arXiv ids into local PDFs through official, OA-first APIs.

Designed as the agent-facing companion to BiblioFetch.jl.

Docs: stable = the Zola site (built from main); dev = rustdoc built from next; API = docs.rs (latest published release).

Status: Shipping on crates.io (doiget-core, doiget-cli, doiget-mcp), with sigstore-signed binaries + an SBOM attached to the GitHub Release. Tier 1 + Tier 2 sources, the stdio MCP server, citation-graph expansion, and gated TDM sources are all implemented. Releases are cut by a single signed git tag through the tag-driven pipeline (see ADR-0025); release-plz was retired. See CHANGELOG.md for history and docs/PHASES.md for the phase plan.

Posture

doiget is a general-purpose automation tool for retrieving papers via official publisher APIs. By design, doiget only attempts retrieval through:

Public Open Access sources (default — Crossref, Unpaywall, arXiv).
Credentials the user has personally configured for their own institutional or personal subscriptions (opt-in, compile-time gated).

doiget does not work around any access control mechanism, redistribute papers, host content, operate as a SaaS, or bundle any publisher API keys.

Users are responsible for ensuring they have the right to access the content they request and for compliance with each source's Terms of Service.

See docs/LEGAL.md and docs/SCOPE.md.
