# arXiv CLI Tools
## Overview
`arxiv-cli-tools` is a Python command-line interface for searching and downloading papers from arXiv.org. It wraps the `arxiv` Python client library into convenient CLI commands, enabling researchers to search by keyword, author, or category, view abstracts, and batch-download PDFs directly from the terminal. No API key is required.
## Installation
```bash
# Recommended: isolated install with pipx
pipx install arxiv-cli-tools
# Alternative: pip
pip install arxiv-cli-tools
