What problem does it solve?
This Skill solves the problem of citation errors and incomplete metadata by helping you reliably discover papers, extract authoritative bibliographic fields, validate them, and output clean BibTeX for scientific writing.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Academic paper discovery: Query Google Scholar and PubMed to find relevant papers for your topic.
- Metadata extraction from identifiers: Convert DOIs, PMIDs, arXiv IDs, or article URLs into structured BibTeX-ready metadata.
- BibTeX formatting and cleanup: Standardize formatting, sort entries, and deduplicate bibliography files.
- Citation validation: Check required fields, DOI format, author formatting, page-range formatting, and detect likely duplicates.
- Use Case: When drafting a manuscript, convert a list of DOIs into a single BibTeX file, then validate and deduplicate it before submission.
Quick Start
Use the citation-management skill to convert a DOI list into a cleaned, validated BibTeX bibliography by telling your AI to convert dois.txt into final_references.bib using the provided scripts, including formatting and validation.
