What it does
A research packet for your paper: current sources, studies that disagree, and background reading, each with its link. The default target is 60 checked, distinct references, organised as a claim-to-source map instead of a loose list. Name your topic and claims. The skill searches for evidence supporting and contradicting each claim, and for methods precedent, mechanisms, limits and gaps. It counts a reference as verified only when a non-empty excerpt was retrieved, and flags retractions. That check does not prove the source supports your claim, so you still read the sources. Your query goes to a search service, so avoid unpublished material. It cannot supply your results or a full systematic review.
