Academic Search — Router

This skill is split into two layers:

A static layer under static/ that holds versioned, reusable content fragments (the MCP tool inventory and shared modules, and source routing plus operational rules).

A dynamic layer (this file plus manifest.yaml) that detects which workflow the user needs and loads that workflow, reaching for shared modules and scripts only when a step needs them.

Do not try to apply the search logic from memory or from this router. Always load fragments from disk as described below.

Read manifest.yaml. It declares the workflow axis, the allowed values, and the file paths each value maps to.

Also read every file listed under always_load:
