About
Scientific Critical Thinking is a specialized skill designed to transform Claude into a rigorous AI scientist capable of performing deep-dive evaluations of research papers and experimental protocols. It provides a systematic framework for assessing study methodology, internal and external validity, and statistical soundness while identifying subtle cognitive and procedural biases. By applying industry-standard tools like the GRADE and Cochrane Risk of Bias frameworks, this skill ensures that scientific claims are scrutinized for evidence quality, confounding variables, and logical fallacies, making it an essential tool for autonomous discovery and evidence-based analysis.
