What is the PubMed Research Assistant skill?

It is a specialized capability for Claude Code that allows for precise searching, Boolean querying, and programmatic retrieval of biomedical literature from the National Library of Medicine.

Does this skill support the NCBI E-utilities API?

Absolutely. It provides documentation and implementation patterns for ESearch, EFetch, ESummary, EPost, and other core NCBI API endpoints for batch processing.

Can I use MeSH terms with this skill?

Yes, it supports advanced MeSH (Medical Subject Headings) queries, including subheadings, major topic filters, and automatic term mapping.

How does it help with systematic reviews?

It offers structured search frameworks like PICO (Population, Intervention, Comparison, Outcome) and example queries designed specifically for high-quality meta-analyses.
