Excellent skill for PubMed database access. The description clearly defines when to use this skill versus alternatives (biopython). SKILL.md provides comprehensive coverage of search strategies, MeSH terms, API access, and systematic review workflows with concrete code examples. Structure is logical with clear capability sections and well-integrated references to supporting files. Task knowledge is exceptional - includes working code, grep patterns, and detailed workflows for common scenarios. The skill addresses a genuine need (complex biomedical literature searches and E-utilities API work) that would be token-intensive for a CLI agent to handle repeatedly. Minor improvement possible: could add more batch processing examples. Overall, this is a high-quality, production-ready skill that meaningfully reduces complexity for biomedical research tasks.
