Does it verify the factual accuracy of external citations?

No, this skill focuses on internal logic and whether your claims are supported by the evidence presented in the text; it does not have the capability to verify external paper databases.

What is hedging calibration?

It is the process of matching the strength of your language (e.g., using 'suggests' vs 'demonstrates') to the actual strength and type of evidence you have provided.

Can it detect inconsistent technical terminology?

Yes, it performs a terminology consistency audit to ensure that the same concepts are referred to by the same terms throughout the entire document.

What types of documents can this skill analyze?

The skill is document-agnostic and works with all scientific formats including manuscripts, grant proposals, abstracts, letters, and technical presentations.

How does it help with quantitative data?

It identifies vague quantifiers such as 'many' or 'significant' and prompts for specific metrics, n-values, and p-values to ensure quantitative precision.
