literature-review
Conducts systematic, scoping, and narrative literature reviews using PubMed, arXiv, bioRxiv, Semantic Scholar, and other appropriate sources. Use for research synthesis, reproducible literature searches, screening, citation checking, or preparing Markdown and PDF reviews. Tracks search coverage, records versus studies, and evidence limitations; supports meta-analysis planning but does not supply a meta-analysis engine.

Low-risk findings worth noting
W011: Third-party content exposure detected (indirect prompt injection risk).
What this means
The skill exposes the agent to untrusted, user-generated content from public third-party sources, creating a risk of indirect prompt injection. This includes browsing arbitrary URLs, reading social media posts or forum comments, and analyzing content from unknown websites.
Why it was flagged
The workflow reads search results and paper extracts via tools like `parallel-cli search`, which consume outsider-authored web content and text.
W012: Unverifiable external dependency detected (runtime URL that controls agent).
What this means
The skill fetches instructions or code from an external URL at runtime, and the fetched content directly controls the agent’s prompts or executes code. This dynamic dependency allows the external source to modify the agent’s behavior without any changes to the skill itself.
Why it was flagged
The script scripts/verify_citations.py performs runtime checks against external HTTP APIs (doi.org and api.crossref.org) using Python's requests library, constituting an external operational runtime dependency.
