Skills · 26
- citation-management
- Comprehensive citation management for academic research. Search Google Scholar and PubMed for papers, extract accurate metadata, validate citations, and generate properly formatted BibTeX entries. This skill should be used when you need to find papers, verify citation information, convert DOIs to B…
- clinical-decision-support
- Prepare and validate research-only clinical decision-support evaluation, evidence-profile, cohort, survival, biomarker/model, privacy, and governance artifacts. Use for aggregate or synthetic research documentation and traceability, not patient care or live clinical operation.
- clinical-reports
- Create safety-bounded draft structures and run local deterministic checks for clinical case, diagnostic, trial, safety, and aggregate research reports. Use only with synthetic, de-identified, or aggregate inputs and verified source-fact manifests; every output requires qualified review.
- docx
- Use this skill whenever the user wants to create, read, edit, or manipulate Word documents (.docx files) or Word templates (.dotx files). Triggers include: any mention of 'Word doc', 'word document', '.docx', '.dotx', or requests to produce professional documents with formatting like tables of cont…
- generate-image
- Generate or edit images with AI models through the OpenRouter Image API (Gemini, FLUX, Seedream, Recraft, GPT-Image). Use for photos, illustrations, artwork, concept art, visual assets, logos, and image editing or compositing from reference images. For flowcharts, circuits, pathways, and other tech…
- hypothesis-generation
- Formulate evidence-bounded scientific questions, candidate hypotheses, rival explanations, causal or associational claims, discriminating predictions, measurements, and preregistration-ready analysis plans. Use when turning observations or preliminary findings into transparent, testable research pl…
- infographics
- Create professional infographics using Nano Banana Pro AI with smart iterative refinement. Uses Gemini 3.6 Flash for quality review. Integrates research-lookup and web search for accurate data. Supports 10 infographic types, 8 industry styles, and colorblind-safe palettes.
- latex-posters
- Create professional research posters in LaTeX using beamerposter, tikzposter, or baposter. Support for conference presentations, academic posters, and scientific communication. Includes layout design, color schemes, multi-column formats, figure integration, and poster-specific best practices for vi…
- literature-review
- Conduct comprehensive, systematic literature reviews using multiple academic databases (PubMed, arXiv, bioRxiv, Semantic Scholar, etc.). This skill should be used when conducting systematic literature reviews, meta-analyses, research synthesis, or comprehensive literature searches across biomedical…
- market-research-reports
- Build evidence-traceable market research reports and assumption-driven market sizing or forecast scenarios. Use for market definition, industry and customer evidence, competitive landscapes, TAM/SAM/SOM reconciliation, forecast sensitivity, and auditable report scaffolds.
- markitdown
- Convert heterogeneous documents and selected URIs to Markdown with Microsoft MarkItDown for text analysis, search, and LLM/RAG ingestion. Covers safe local conversion, streams, Office/PDF/data formats, batch workflows, plugins, vision OCR, Azure extraction, and the official MCP server.
- parallel-web
- Use Parallel CLI for web search, URL extraction, deep research, structured data enrichment, entity discovery, and recurring web monitoring. Best for requests that explicitly need current web evidence, academic-source discovery, repeated entity lookups, exhaustive reports, or ongoing change tracking.
