SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? Researchers face overwhelming volumes of biomedical literature and need a fast, structured way to decide which papers deserve deep reading time versus a quick skim or a skip, without confusing journal prestige or novelty with actual value. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Question-Fit Assessment: Evaluates how closely a paper matches your research question, population, method, and intended use, separating relevance from quality. - Read-Level Recommendation: Classifies each paper as Full read, Skim, Skip, or Uncertain pending fuller text, with explicit reasoning grounded in design strength, sample adequacy, novelty, and reproducibility value. - Confidence-Aware Triage: Adjusts judgment confidence based on input depth (title only, abstract, or full text) and asks clarifying questions when information is insufficient. - Use Case: You have 30 abstracts from a PubMed search for your journal club. Provide each abstract with your research question, and receive a prioritized read/skim/skip triage with reasons for each decision. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to screen this paper's title and abstract against your research question and tell you whether it is a full read, skim, or skip.

Frequently Asked Questions about high-value-paper-screener

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I decide if a research paper is worth reading in full?▼

Provide the paper's title and abstract along with your research question or reading goal. The screening evaluates question fit, design strength, sample adequacy, novelty, and reproducibility value, then issues a full read, skim, or skip recommendation with reasoning.

How to triage a large list of biomedical papers quickly?▼

Screen each paper's title and abstract against your specific research question rather than general interest. Papers are classified as full read, skim, skip, or uncertain pending fuller text, letting you prioritize deep reading time on high-value papers only.

Can a paper be screened from its title alone?▼

Title-only screening is possible but treated as low confidence. The output explicitly flags the limited input and recommends providing the abstract or full text before issuing a confident read or skip judgment.

What is the difference between paper relevance and paper quality?▼

Relevance measures how well a paper matches your research question, while quality reflects design rigor and methodological strength. A high-quality paper with poor question fit may only deserve a skim, and both dimensions are reported separately.

When should I not rely on paper screening recommendations?▼

Screening is not a substitute for full critical appraisal or systematic-review evidence synthesis. It provides reading-priority triage, not final scientific endorsement, and should not be used to certify a paper's truth from partial information.
