Modern searches for physics beyond the Standard Model produce rapidly expanding literature containing heterogeneous information, including textual analyses, numerical datasets, and graphical exclusion limits. Integrating these distributed sources remains a time-consuming and manual process for physicists. We present HEP-CoPilot, a retrieval-augmented multi-agent AI framework for the exploration and interpretation of high-energy physics literature. The system unifies textual information from publications, structured experimental data from HEPData, and reconstructed physics plots within a multimodal retrieval and reasoning architecture. By combining retrieval-augmented language models with coordinated agent workflows, it enables evidence-grounded reasoning over experimental analyses and structured interpretation of collider results. We evaluate the framework on recent CMS searches for physics beyond the Standard Model. Case studies show that HEP-CoPilot can retrieve relevant measurements, reconstruct exclusion limits directly from HEPData records, and perform cross-paper comparisons of experimental constraints. This enables consistent, physics-aware comparison across analyses without manual data integration. These results demonstrate that retrieval-augmented AI systems can function as scientific co-pilots for particle physics, facilitating navigation of complex literature, structuring heterogeneous evidence, and accelerating the interpretation pipeline for new physics searches.
