From the source SKILL.md

Use this skill when repository work depends on facts that may live outside the checkout: current library behavior, API documentation, standards, advisories, release notes, issue discussions, or ecosystem conventions. The goal is not to collect links. The goal is to decide what evidence is needed, gather the smallest useful set of sources, cite the facts that matter, and convert those facts into concrete next actions in the repo.

What this skill does

External Search Triage is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the science-misc sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/external-search-triage/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.

When to invoke it: Use when deciding whether external research is needed and turning cited findings into repo actions.
