inspirehep.net integrations

Connect inspirehep.net to any other app, or use it from your AI client over MCP. INSPIRE-HEP is the information system for high-energy physics literature, run by CERN and partner laboratories. Callers can search the literature by title, author, arXiv identifier, DOI, report number, collaboration or full text, and retrieve a single record with its abstract, authors, affiliations, journal reference, citation counts and references. The same service also searches the author, institution, conference, journal, experiment, job and seminar collections, with sorting, paging and field selection. No credentials required.

What do you want to automate with inspirehep.net?

Ask the assistant

You'll sign in before anything runs. What you typed comes with you.

Connect your AI client

Give your AI client this address.

https://mcp.apiant.ai

One connection does both: ask your client to act in an app once, or have it build an automation that keeps running. Any client that takes a remote MCP server. Nothing to install. Create your free account, then sign in once in your browser.

Questions

inspirehep.net, answered

Is there a inspirehep.net MCP server?

APIANT's MCP server at https://mcp.apiant.ai works with inspirehep.net. Add that address to any AI client that takes a remote MCP server and sign in once in your browser. Your client can then run inspirehep.net actions on demand, or have APIANT build, test and run automations that use inspirehep.net. Nothing to install.

What can start an automation from inspirehep.net?

Any of inspirehep.net's 2 triggers in the catalog, including New job posting and New literature. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.

What can your agent do in inspirehep.net?

Any of inspirehep.net's 7 actions, including Find authors, Find jobs, Find literature and Get author. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.

Can I use inspirehep.net directly from Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?

Yes. Connect your AI client to APIANT once and it works with inspirehep.net two ways. Ask it to do something in inspirehep.net once and it runs that action on the spot. Ask for an automation and your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running on its own. A one-off action uses your plan's tasks the same way an automation step does.

Do I need to write code against the inspirehep.net API?

No. APIANT connects to the inspirehep.net API for you. Describe what you want in plain language and your agent builds it on the inspirehep.net triggers and actions in the catalog. If you need an endpoint that is not there yet, your agent reads the inspirehep.net API documentation and adds it.

Which apps can inspirehep.net connect to?

Any app in the catalog; the list on this page pairs inspirehep.net with each of them. If the other app is missing, point your agent at its API documentation and it builds the connector.

What happens when something fails?

Your agent works that out for you. It plans the failure paths along with the happy path, then tests every scenario before it ships.

Is there a free plan?

Yes. Every plan includes the agent, including free, and building from your own AI client spends no assistant credits.
