Fine to try.

Verify a research claim or academic citation by tracing it through publication → methodology → raw data → independent replication. Routes through perplexity-research for the actual web lookup, then formats results as a citation-checked brain page. Use when a book/article/conversation cites a study and you want to confirm the claim is real, replicated, and accurately characterized.

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'academic-verify' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'academic-verify' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named academic-verify already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/garrytan/gbrain' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '001c8c39e84d726e9bb6ecbae053458c970d5af3' -- 'skills/academic-verify' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/academic-verify' ~/.agents/skills/'academic-verify' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'academic-verify' ~/.claude/skills/'academic-verify' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
