abstract = {The 8-puzzle is the largest puzzle of its type that can be completely solved. It is simple, and yet obeys a combinatorially large problem space of 91/2 states. The N \texttimes{} N extension of the 8-puzzle is NP-hard.In the first part of this paper, we present complete statistical data based on an exhaustive evaluation of all possible tile configurations. Our results include data on the expected solution lengths, the 'easiest' and 'worst' configurations, and the density and distribution of solution nodes in the search tree.In our second set of experiments, we used the 8-puzzle as a workbench model to evaluate the benefit of node ordering schemes in Iterative-Deepening A* (IDA*). One highlight of our results is that almost all IDA* implementations perform worse than would be possible with a simple random ordering of the operators.},

I expected the code to fail clearly or support importing both the DOI that the article is in and the article itself

The doi https://scholia.toolforge.org/doi/10.5555/1624025.1624060 seems to not exist in crossref, so that makes scholia fail.

I'm not sure what you mean.

In spite of the URL format, "10.5555/1624025.1624060" is not a registered DOI (see e.g. https://doi.org/ra/10.5555/1624025.1624060). Importing the BibTeX seems to work okay:

Linking it to the conference name is a bit more difficult as there are generally no identifiers for that, and I am not planning to link them based on the labels. I could implement the "unknown value" + "object named as" trick if you want though, but I'm still not sure if editors agree that's a good idea.

That trick sounds better to me than discarding the data. But, I would prefer to try to infer from title -> fail with a good error message that tell the user to import the book first, so the paper and book can be linked.

In this case searching using wbsearchentities returns 0 results. It's only a 204 ms request and it helps the user immensely.

You could generate the api request for the book for the user also and include it in the error message :)
