The paper introduces SPRA (Structured Paper Representation for Agents), a comprehensive representation of AI research papers that organizes key research elements—Problems, Contributions, Components, ExperimentSetups, Measures, and Findings—into typed relations for easier querying, traversal, and reuse. SPRA includes paper-level citation relations that capture dependencies, component usage, and comparisons, and it has been instantiated across more than one million AI papers, yielding millions of research units and internal relations. Empirical evaluations show that SPRA improves source-conditioned scientific QA and directed cross-paper reasoning over passage retrieval while significantly reducing input and output token counts, demonstrating its practicality for scientific workflows.

Optimist Deep Research is an open‑source agent that conducts literature research as an iterative, state‑centric process. It breaks a research question into a tree of subquestions, uses search intents to query multiple scholarly databases, and merges results into a provenance‑preserving document registry. The agent iteratively expands the registry via citation snowballing, evaluates evidence, and refines the research plan through a critic that can add, split, rephrase, deprioritize, or close subquestions, ultimately producing a report with every citation linked to a retrieved document.

ScholarCatalyst is a new benchmark that evaluates how well AI systems can retrieve research papers that inspire new work. The dataset was created by having 184 lead authors of 207 recent computer science papers annotate which earlier papers helped their projects, providing detailed rationales. The benchmark tests retrieval from the literature available at the start of a project, revealing that current agentic search and even advanced models like Claude Fable 5.1 perform only modestly better than simple embedding retrieval.
