You do not need another paper search. You need your own library to answer back.
Ask across PDFs, scans, notes, drafts and co-author mail: "Where did I read this?", "Which studies disagree?", "Does this sentence in my draft have support?" docenta returns the exact page and the conflicts, in the language you ask or the one the paper was written in, without sending your library anywhere.
Two indexed papers report a low-dose effect; one later replication reports no effect below a higher threshold. Your current draft sentence says the effect is "consistently observed", which the three papers retrieved do not support. Your journal-club note of May 2024 already flags the dose-response as unresolved.
An illustration of the shape of an answer. The papers are made up; the behavior is docenta's: it does not pretend to know the science, it proves what your chosen corpus says.
You remember the meaning, the date, the argument. Ask that.
Find it
I know I read that this works at low dose; where did I read it, and what did the paper actually say?
Which paper used this dataset, method, instrument or sample size?
Find the German or French paper that discusses this even though I asked in English.
Support
Which sources in my library support this sentence in my draft? Give exact pages.
Which citations in this draft do not appear to support the sentence they are attached to?
What claim in my draft currently has no source in the library?
Disagreement
Which sources contradict my current conclusion?
Where do papers use the same term differently?
Which papers share a result but disagree about mechanism?
Over time
What is the earliest paper in my collection making this claim, and which later replications failed?
Did my interpretation change after the later replication or the co-author's email? Show my notes in order.
Evidence and gaps
Which papers cite the same underlying experiment rather than providing independent evidence?
What evidence would I need to distinguish these two explanations, and do I have it?
What question remains unresolved across the papers I have?
The pile.
Thousands of PDFs and scans, with OCR where needed and a warning where the text order is unreliable; every claim cited to the page.
Your notes and drafts.
Reading notes, journal-club notes and the manuscript in progress, so "what did I think at the time" and "is this sentence supported" are questions the library answers.
Co-author mail.
The thread where the replication was discussed, the attachment with the figure, in order, tied to the papers it talks about.
The same four-part contract, every time.
Exact source.
The file, the page, the message, the span. Not "sources": the line you can open and read.
Order and version.
When it was said, which version it was, what replaced what. A three-event timeline beats another paragraph.
Conflicts.
Two sources that disagree are shown side by side, never smoothed into one confident sentence.
Gaps.
"Not established by this collection" is an answer, printed as one. It is how you know the rest is solid.
The evidence path.
What was searched, which lanes answered, what was dropped and why, how many tokens the agent was handed. Inspectable, every time.
Boundedness is the feature.
Most AI marketing hides uncertainty. docenta prints it. The lines below are not disclaimers; they are what a trustworthy answer looks like.
It does not know the science. docenta proves what your saved sources say; it does not establish truth outside them and it performs no statistics on retrieval alone.
A citation is checked, not trusted. Whether the cited page says what the sentence claims is a question the answer takes literally.
Unreliable extraction is flagged. A PDF whose text reads in visual order is marked: find it, cite the page, do not quote it.
The unanswered question is listed. What the collection does not settle is printed with the searches that were run, so the next paper to read has a name.

Ask the sensitive question without first uploading the sensitive file.
The unpublished draft, the annotated PDFs and the co-author threads stay on your machine: ingest, index, embeddings and answers all run there. Originals are never copied; only searchable derivatives are stored. Your agent gets a small evidence pack, a few kilobytes with the receipts, not your archive. Zero uploads, zero telemetry, and the token budget is printed on every answer.
It gets it over MCP, the connector standard Claude, ChatGPT and most coding assistants speak, from a server that runs on your own machine: the agent talks to a local process, not to a URL in someone's cloud. The only remote MCP addresses on this site are the public doors, sealed collections hosted on purpose; your own collection never has one. Deterministic layers, no learned model in the retrieval loop, bit-stable re-runs.
