Quick Review

Excellent bioRxiv search skill with comprehensive documentation. The description clearly articulates when and how to invoke the skill (keyword, author, DOI, date range searches, PDF downloads). Task knowledge is thorough with detailed CLI examples, Python API usage, common workflows, and best practices. Structure is well-organized with logical sections, a test suite, and references to external documentation. The skill demonstrates moderate novelty by packaging bioRxiv API interactions with rate limiting, error handling, and structured JSON output, reducing the token overhead a CLI agent would need for literature search tasks. Minor improvement possible in documenting complex batch operations or error recovery patterns.
