SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Zero-context verification that every bibliographic entry in a paper is real, correctly attributed, and used in a context the cited paper actually supports. Uses a fresh cross-model reviewer with web/DBLP/arXiv lookup to catch hallucinated authors, wrong years, fabricated venues, version mismatches, and wrong-context citations (cite present but the cited paper does not establish the claim). Use when user says "审查引用", "check citations", "citation audit", "verify references", or before submission to ensure bibliography integrity.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Verify existence of cited papers across arXiv/DOI/venues.
  • Validate metadata: authors, year, venue, title against canonical sources (DBLP, arXiv, ACL Anthology, Nature, OpenReview, etc.).
  • Check context: ensure the citation actually supports the claim it's used to support in the manuscript.
  • Constants and workflow details: a fresh reviewer thread per audit, web access required, and per-entry verdicts (KEEP / FIX / REPLACE / REMOVE) with a machine-readable JSON log.

Quick Start

Run this skill after your LaTeX draft and bib file are ready to verify each citation against reliable online sources.

FAQPage Schema
How do I verify that citations in a research paper are real and correctly attributed?

Citation verification involves checking each bibliographic entry's existence, metadata, and contextual relevance against authoritative sources like arXiv, DBLP, and ACL Anthology to catch hallucinated authors, wrong years, and fabricated venues.

What is the best way to check if a cited paper actually supports the claim in my manuscript?

Checking citation context involves verifying contextual relevance by cross-referencing the manuscript's assertion against the cited paper's actual content using a fresh reviewer thread with web lookup capabilities.

Can I audit arXiv and DBLP references before submitting my LaTeX draft?

Yes, you can audit arXiv and DBLP references before submission by running a citation audit on your LaTeX draft and bib file to validate metadata and catch version mismatches or fabricated venues.

How do I validate bibliographic metadata like authors, year, and venue against canonical sources?

Validating bibliographic metadata requires checking authors, year, venue, and title against canonical sources such as DBLP, arXiv, ACL Anthology, Nature, and OpenReview to ensure accuracy and correct attribution.

Why does my citation audit require web access to check references?

A citation audit requires web access because it enforces web lookups to verify the existence and metadata accuracy of bibliographic entries against authoritative online sources, ensuring zero-context verification.
