You just articulated the 'Holy Grail' of automated appraisal. Detecting bias across a career is a massive graph problem compared to checking a single paper. It essentially requires auditing an entire bibliography before synthesis.

I am adding 'Author Reputation/Bias Analysis' to the long-term roadmap. Thanks for the rigorous stress-test today.

How will you do this, one author I don't trust (sent them an error they missed in their paper - didnt correct it, has systemic bias in their writing) was invited to write a review article by the New England Journal of Medicine - has an excellent reputation for all the world to see.

You found the ultimate edge case. The 'Prestige Proxy' (NEJM = Truth) essentially masks that individual's actual track record.

While we might be able to detect 'Insular Citation Clusters' mathematically to flag systemic bias, no model can catch a private signal like an ignored email. It reinforces why the human expert is indispensable. The tool is a force multiplier for judgment, not a substitute.
