Lune Miniapps
Miniapps are hosted research assistants with Lune already connected. Open one in your browser and ask a question in plain English. The assistant can retrieve relevant top-tier papers and research guidance without an installation step or a token to paste.
Miniapps use the same Lune tools available to connected agents. Paper results include abstracts, metadata, citation context, and available full text. Guidance results cover literature reviews, evaluation design, ablations, peer review, and venue selection. The response can carry those sources forward instead of asking the model to reconstruct the literature from memory.
The miniapps
Assistant: find what the literature says
Describe a topic in plain language and Assistant searches the corpus for relevant foundational and recent work. It returns a cited synthesis with the paper records and available source text behind it. Use it to orient yourself in a field, find related work, or check the evidence for a technical claim.
Open Assistant.
Critique: pressure-test a draft or an idea
Paste a draft, an abstract, or a one-line research idea, and Critique reviews it against the literature: what's already been done, where the gaps are, and which related work you should be citing. It's the second reader who actually read the field.
Open Critique.
Workspace: chat with your own documents
Upload your own papers, notes, or reports and Workspace answers from them. Ask what a document says, compare a few side by side, or pull one detail out of a long PDF, and each answer cites the exact file it came from. Your uploads stay private to your workspace, and you can invite collaborators when you want a shared library.

Why the answers hold up
A general chatbot may answer a research question from model memory. A Lune miniapp retrieves first. It can show which papers were found, preserve their metadata and links, and quote source passages when full text is available. That makes the evidence easier to inspect before the answer informs a draft, evaluation, or higher-stakes decision.
Bring the same grounding into your own agent
The miniapps are the hosted version. The whole idea behind Lune is that you can have the same grounding in the tools you already work in. Connect Lune once and your own assistant gains the same paper retrieval, citation trails, available full text, and scientific workflow guidance that power the miniapps here.
- Connect Lune to your AI app: Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, and the rest.
