PubMed enables AI agents to search biomedical and life sciences literature, retrieve research abstracts and publication details, filter studies by author, date, and topic, and explore scientific evidence to support medical research and literature reviews.
VS Code
Encrypted at rest, isolated from the model
Resolved from an AES-256-GCM vault at the moment of the call and attached to the request — the model never sees the secrets.
