research-lookup

To find academic papers with inline citations and DOIs, this Skill routes queries to Perplexity sonar-pro-search, returning structured Markdown-ready results with clear provenance suitable for reproducibility.

Yes, you can use the Parallel Chat API via OpenRouter for general research lookups, and the Skill provides automatic fallback to an alternative backend if the primary one is unavailable.

The best way to batch search literature and save sources for audit trails is using this Skill's dual-backend routing, which saves provenance and source lists directly to the project sources/ folder.

You do not strictly need API keys for both backends, as the Skill routes queries based on available API keys and provides automatic fallback if a configured backend is missing or unavailable.

Yes, this research lookup tool supports Claude Code integration workflows, allowing you to locate current research information and validate claims across both general and academic sources.

Research queries return general results instead of academic papers when the Skill detects general content requirements or when academic backend API keys are missing, triggering automatic fallback routing.
