Gs Advanced Search
This translates natural language search requests into proper Google Scholar URL parameters so you can do filtered searches without memorizing their query syntax. Want Einstein's papers after 2020 in Nature? It builds the right as_sauthors, as_publication, and as_ylo parameters. Need exact phrase matching or title-only searches? It handles as_epq and as_occt. The implementation parses your intent, constructs the URL, navigates via Chrome DevTools, and extracts results with the same script as the basic gs-search skill. Useful when you need precision beyond keyword dumping, though Google Scholar still doesn't support publication type filters natively, so you're stuck approximating with keywords. Two tool calls per search: navigate and evaluate.
