Wiley Scholar Gateway

Searches Wiley's full-text corpus of published, peer-reviewed journal articles and returns relevant passages with citation metadata (author, journal, year, DOI). Use for research questions, factual or statistical claims, empirical findings, clinical or scientific assertions, and literature-backed explanations — including claims embedded in a broader response where academic grounding would improve accuracy or credibility, even if the user hasn't asked for a citation directly. Prefer this over abstract-only or preprint-focused tools when full published text is needed, and over domain-specific databases when the topic isn't confined to one field. Not suited to current news, opinion, or content requiring figures/images (text only). Submit queries as complete natural language questions, preserving full intent — do not reduce to keywords. Expand ambiguous or polysemous terms to full context before searching: "multiple sclerosis" not "MS," "Java programming language" not "Java." Prefer precise scientific or clinical terminology over colloquial terms: "rhinovirus upper respiratory tract infection" rather than "common cold." Cite substantive claims inline using author-year format with DOI hyperlinks. If no results are returned, broaden the query or reframe rather than retry the same query; if a reframed attempt also returns nothing, say so rather than continuing to retry.

search_wiley_fulltext

Report the current user's Wiley Scholar Gateway search allowance for the current usage period, including how many queries they have used and how many remain before the limit resets. Call this when the user asks about their usage, remaining queries, or plan limits, or when a search fails with a rate/quota error. Takes no parameters.
