SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill solves the problem of misinformation and misattribution in academic and research-based discourse by tracing claims back to their original source data and methodology.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Claim Traceability: Automatically maps a claim through its publication, methodology, raw data, and independent replication status.
  • Verdict Generation: Produces a structured brain page classifying the claim as verified, partially verified, unverifiable, misattributed, or retracted.
  • Use Case: When you encounter a bold statistic in a policy brief or article, use this skill to confirm if the underlying study actually supports the claim or if it has been debunked by subsequent peer review.

Quick Start

Invoke the academic-verify skill to validate the specific research claim or citation provided in your current context.

Frequently Asked Questions about academic-verify

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I verify academic claims and trace research citations back to original data?▼

To verify academic claims, you trace citations from the initial statement to original publication, methodology, and raw data. This skill automates that tracing process to validate research accuracy and identify misattribution.

Can I check if a research paper has been retracted or debunked by peer review?▼

Yes, you can check if a paper is retracted by cross-referencing databases like Retraction Watch and PubPeer. This integration flags debunked research and identifies independent replication status during validation.

What is the best way to fact-check statistics cited in a policy brief?▼

Fact-checking policy brief statistics involves mapping the claim through its publication and methodology to confirm if the underlying study actually supports it. The skill generates a structured verdict classifying the claim's accuracy.

Do I need perplexity-research to perform citation-mode web lookups for research validation?▼

Yes, you need perplexity-research integration to perform citation-mode web lookups. This dependency is required to query external academic databases and generate structured verdict pages for the verification workflow.

How are verified research claims classified and what verdicts can be generated?▼

Verified research claims are classified into a structured brain page generating verdicts of verified, partially verified, unverifiable, misattributed, or retracted based on the traced publication and methodology data.

Does fact-checking academic citations work with Semantic Scholar for cross-referencing?▼

Fact-checking academic citations works directly with Semantic Scholar alongside Retraction Watch and PubPeer for cross-referencing. This database integration supports tracing claims and validating research integrity.
