create_collection
ActiveTool of Scite
Create a new Collection owned by the signed-in user. Use this to start a Collection from a list of DOIs the user wants to group, track, and analyze together. The caller becomes the Collection ADMIN. The returned `slug` identifies the Collection for `get_collection`, `update_collection`, `add_dois_to_collection`, and the other Collection tools. **DOI validation.** Provided DOIs are validated and resolved against scite; unknown DOIs are dropped and surfaced via the `unmatchedDoiCount` in the response. An empty `dois` list creates an empty Collection the user can add to later. **Scope.** This tool creates DOI-list Collections. Collections backed by a saved search query are created in the scite web app, not via MCP. **Parameters:** - name: Collection name (required). - description: Optional free-text description. - dois: Optional list of DOI strings to seed the Collection. - is_public: If true, anyone with the slug can view the Collection (default: false). **Returns:** The created Collection with id, slug, name, description, isPublic, doiQueryType, accessType, and DOI counts.
