## Tools (as reported by the server, not verified)

- `orcid\_get\_profile`: Fetch a researcher's public profile from ORCID: name, other names, biography, keywords, researcher URLs, and external identifiers such as Scopus Author ID, ResearcherID, and Loop profile. This is the entry point for building a researcher dossier. Pass a bare ORCID iD \(0000-0001-2345-6789\) or a full
- `orcid\_search\_researchers`: Search the ORCID registry using structured field parameters or raw Solr syntax. Provide at least one non-blank search field; all provided structured params are ANDed together. The \`query\` field adds raw Solr syntax, ANDed with the structured params as one group. Returns ORCID iDs with inline name an
- `orcid\_get\_works`: Retrieve works associated with an ORCID iD — publications, datasets, software, preprints, and more. Returns work summaries with put-codes, titles, types, publication dates, journal names, and all external identifiers \(DOIs, PMIDs, arXiv IDs, ISBNs\). The first 50 works are returned by default; workCo
- `orcid\_get\_work\_detail`: Fetch full work details by put-code from orcid\_get\_works. Accepts 1–1,000 raw codes, deduplicates in first-occurrence order, and fetches the first 100 distinct codes in one request. Returns abstracts, contributors with CRediT roles, the record's external IDs \(DOI, PMID, arXiv, ISBN, etc.\), citation
- `orcid\_get\_affiliations`: Fetch affiliation records for an ORCID researcher. The \`types\` parameter controls which affiliation sections to return: employment, education, invited-positions, distinctions, memberships, qualifications, services, or all. Default is employment and education. Returns organization names, disambiguate
- `orcid\_get\_funding`: Fetch funding records for an ORCID researcher: grants, contracts, awards, and salary awards. Returns funder names, funder organization identifiers, grant numbers, funding periods, and sources. Funding items come from the researcher or from member organizations such as funders, institutions, and sear
- `orcid\_get\_peer\_reviews`: Fetch peer review activity for an ORCID researcher: reviewer role \(reviewer, editor, chair, etc.\), review type, completion dates, ISSN-keyed group identifiers, and the convening organization as ORCID records it — often the service that imported the review \(e.g. Publons, Clarivate\). ORCID returns no
- `orcid\_get\_research\_resources`: List allocation proposals for an ORCID researcher, or supply put\_code from a summary record to retrieve its actual resource items. Summary is the default view and includes every proposal host, identifiers, access period, and source provenance; hostOrganization remains the first proposal host. Detail
- `orcid\_resolve\_researcher`: Disambiguate an author name to a verified ORCID iD. Returns ranked candidates \(5 by default, up to 20 via the rows parameter\) with transparent disambiguation signals: name match type \(exact/partial/other-name/none\), institution overlap flag, and whether a DOI or PMID anchor was used in the query.
