Assess the scientific integrity and trustworthiness of publications before relying on their findings. Use this skill whenever evaluating a paper for a workflow, citing a study, building an analysis on published methods, or when a user asks about the reliability of a study. Checks for formal retractions, corrections, expressions of concern, and — critically — informal contradictions where subsequent studies failed to reproduce key findings. Integrates with PubMed, bioRxiv, and Consensus to provide a trust assessment. Use this skill for ANY publication evaluation, retraction checking, author reliability assessment, or when a user says "can I trust this paper", "is this study reliable", "has this been refuted", or "check this publication".
