What it does
Patent Search is an agent skill from ZimoLiao/scholaraio. Use when the user wants USPTO patent discovery, patent metadata lookup, application lookup, or downloadable patent candidates before ingest.
Its SKILL.md is about 890 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Legal & Compliance, covering Intellectual property. The repository describes itself as: Scholar All-In-One: A research infrastructure for AI agents. The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- The user wants USPTO patent discovery
- Patent metadata lookup
- Application lookup
- Downloadable patent candidates before ingest
Example prompts
- “/patent-search”
Requirements
- A credential in USPTO_ODP_API_KEY
Workflow steps
4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- 如果不需 ODP 的额外功能，直接使用默认 PPUBS（不加 --source odp）
- 如需 ODP，访问 https://data.uspto.gov/apis/getting-started 注册账号
- 完成视频验证后获取 API Key
- 配置到 config.local.yaml 或环境变量
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 777628b. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are bash and yaml).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):
data.uspto.gov
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:
USPTO_ODP_API_KEY
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Patent Search loads about 892 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 39 tokens; SKILL.md has 162 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

patent-search — USPTO 专利搜索
通过 USPTO Patent Public Search (PPUBS) 搜索美国专利，无需 API Key，无需注册账号。
同时保留 USPTO Open Data Portal (ODP) API 作为可选后端（需要 API Key），用于更结构化的申请号查询。
注意：本命令仅用于搜索发现，不会直接入库。 如需将专利纳入知识库，请后续通过 patent-fetch 或 --fetch 下载 PDF 后放入 configured patent inbox（fresh 默认 data/spool/inbox-patent/），再执行 scholaraio pipeline ingest 走正常的专利入库流程（含公开号去重）。
用法
关键词搜索（默认 PPUBS，无需 API Key）
# 基本搜索
scholaraio patent-search "artificial intelligence"
# 指定结果数量
scholaraio patent-search "neural network" --count 20
# 分页
scholaraio patent-search "semiconductor" --count 10 --offset 10搜索并自动下载 PDF
# 搜索并自动下载所有结果中的专利 PDF 到 configured patent inbox
scholaraio patent-search "quantum computing" --count 5 --fetch高级查询语法（PPUBS）
PPUBS 支持字段限定检索，基本语法为 ("term").field.：
# 标题检索
scholaraio patent-search '("artificial intelligence").title.'
# 发明人检索
scholaraio patent-search '("Smith").inventor.'
# 公开号检索
scholaraio patent-search '("US20230123456A1").publ.'
# 布尔组合
scholaraio patent-search '("artificial intelligence").title. AND ("neural network").title.'使用 ODP API（需要 API Key）
若已配置 ODP API Key，可通过 --source odp 切换到 ODP 后端：
# ODP 关键词搜索
scholaraio patent-search "artificial intelligence" --source odp
# 按申请号查询详情（ODP 支持更完整的结构化元数据）
scholaraio patent-search --application 17123456 --source odpODP API Key 配置方式：
config.local.yaml：yaml patent: uspto_odp_api_key: "your-api-key"- 环境变量：
bash export USPTO_ODP_API_KEY="your-api-key"

缺少 API Key（仅影响 --source odp）
搜索失败: 缺少 USPTO ODP API Key。请在 config.local.yaml 中配置...解决方案：
- 如果不需 ODP 的额外功能，直接使用默认 PPUBS（不加
--source odp） - 如需 ODP，访问 https://data.uspto.gov/apis/getting-started 注册账号
- 完成视频验证后获取 API Key
- 配置到
config.local.yaml或环境变量
未找到专利
未找到与 '...' 相关的专利- 尝试简化关键词
- 检查 PPUBS 字段语法是否正确（引号、括号、点号）
- 对精确申请号查询，使用
--source odp --application <号码>
PPUBS 会话过期/403
- 客户端会自动刷新会话并重试，通常无需手动处理
- 若频繁失败，可能是网络波动，稍后再试
patent-fetch 下载失败
- 美国专利会优先尝试 USPTO PPUBS 官方导出；若失败再回退 Google Patents
- 该专利可能尚未提供可导出的 PDF（如非常新的 WO 专利）
- 尝试在浏览器中打开专利页面确认
- 部分专利需要换源（如 EPO）
