Answer

To solve the integral

\[ I = \int \frac{x^8 - x^2}{x^{12} + 3x^6 + 1} \tan^{-1}(x^3 + \frac{1}{x^3}) \, dx, \]

we will follow these steps:

### Step 1: Simplify the integrand

First, we can simplify the integrand by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by \(x^6\):

\[ I = \int \frac{x^8/x^6 - x^2/x^6}{x^{12}/x^6 + 3x^6/x^6 + 1/x^6} \tan^{-1}(x^3 + \frac{1}{x^3}) \, dx. \]

This simplifies to:

\[ I = \int \frac{x^2 - \frac{1}{x^4}}{x^6 + 3 + \frac{1}{x^6}} \tan^{-1}(x^3 + \frac{1}{x^3}) \, dx. \]

### Step 2: Rewrite the denominator

Next, we can rewrite the denominator in a more manageable form. The expression \(x^6 + 3 + \frac{1}{x^6}\) can be expressed as:

\[ x^6 + 3 + \frac{1}{x^6} = \left(x^3 + \frac{1}{x^3}\right)^2 + 1. \]

### Step 3: Substitute for \(t\)

Let \(t = \tan^{-1}(x^3 + \frac{1}{x^3})\). Then, we differentiate \(t\):

\[ dt = \frac{3x^2 - \frac{3}{x^4}}{1 + (x^3 + \frac{1}{x^3})^2} \, dx. \]

This gives us:

\[ dx = \frac{1 + (x^3 + \frac{1}{x^3})^2}{3x^2 - \frac{3}{x^4}} \, dt. \]

### Step 4: Substitute back into the integral

Now we can substitute \(t\) and \(dx\) back into the integral:

\[ I = \int \frac{x^2 - \frac{1}{x^4}}{\left(x^3 + \frac{1}{x^3}\right)^2 + 1} \cdot \frac{1 + (x^3 + \frac{1}{x^3})^2}{3x^2 - \frac{3}{x^4}} \, dt. \]

### Step 5: Simplify the integral

This integral can be simplified further, but we can also notice that the integral structure suggests a logarithmic form.

### Step 6: Final result

After performing the integration and simplifying, we find:

\[ I = \frac{1}{3} \ln\left(\tan^{-1}(x^3 + \frac{1}{x^3})\right) + C. \]

### Conclusion

Thus, the final answer to the integral is:

\[ I = \frac{1}{3} \ln\left(\tan^{-1}(x^3 + \frac{1}{x^3})\right) + C. \]
