medsci-agent: Skill for OpenCode

.opencode/skills/pubmed/SKILL.md

pubmed is a skill for OpenCode from omar-A-hassan/medsci-agent. It costs 20 tokens per session (305 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A skill for searching PubMed, a database of biomedical research papers. It can search by topics, medical subject terms, authors, journals, dates, and publication types, then retrieve abstracts by PMID.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps find papers, retrieve abstracts, review clinical evidence, validate biological targets, and investigate whether existing drugs may fit another use.
Why use it?
It gives a structured way to find biomedical evidence instead of relying on broad, imprecise searches. Search filters help focus results on areas such as clinical trials or recent research.

Skill for OpenCode

Written for OpenCode: installed under .opencode/.

This is omar-A-hassan/medsci-agent's own configuration. It tells OpenCode how to work on medsci-agent itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything medsci-agent configures →

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

pubmed scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 10d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

When to Use

  • Finding research papers on a biomedical topic
  • Retrieving abstracts for specific PMIDs
  • Building evidence for target validation or drug repositioning
  • Reviewing clinical evidence for a disease or treatment

Available Tools

  • search_pubmed(query) — Search with Boolean/MeSH support
  • fetch_abstract(pmid) — Get full abstract and MeSH terms

Search Tips

  • Use MeSH terms for precise results: "Breast Neoplasms"[MeSH]
  • Boolean operators: cancer AND immunotherapy NOT review
  • Field tags: [Title], [Author], [Journal]
  • Date ranges: "2024/01/01"[Date - Publication] : "2024/12/31"[Date - Publication]

Search Strategies

  • Broad search: Use general terms, sort by relevance
  • Focused search: Combine MeSH terms with Boolean AND
  • Clinical evidence: Add randomized controlled trial[pt] or meta-analysis[pt]
  • Recent advances: Sort by date, limit to last 2 years

Complementary Tools

  • Use search_openalex for broader cross-disciplinary search
  • Use search_clinical_trials for active/completed trials

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

pubmed is a skill published in the GitHub repository omar-A-hassan/medsci-agent (18 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 20 tokens to every session and 305 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
