Building Arivu: CLI/library that normalizes fetch/search across a bunch of sources (arXiv, PubMed, HN, GitHub, Reddit, YouTube transcripts, RSS, web pages…).

I use it as a context fetcher i.e grab an abstract/transcript/thread as clean text/JSON, pipe it into summaries or scripts.

Also runs as an MCP server (experimental), so tools like Claude Desktop or CLI assistants can call the connectors directly.
