SearchCONSENSUS_MCP_SEARCH
Search over 220 million peer-reviewed academic papers. Use this tool when the user asks about research, studies, evidence, scientific findings, clinical trials, medical research, or academic literature. Covers Semantic Scholar, PubMed, Scopus, and ArXiv. Returns paper titles, authors, abstracts, citation counts, journal quality scores, and direct URLs to each paper. All filters are optional — only apply them when the user explicitly asks.
