SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires bibtexparser, semanticscholar, arxiv, requests, and includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Citation reliability in academic writing is often undermined by incomplete BibTeX entries, unverifiable sources, and inconsistent metadata. This skill automates end-to-end citation verification to improve accuracy, integrity, and auditability.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Format validation for BibTeX entries (required fields, field formats).
  • Existence verification via CrossRef (DOI), arXiv, and Semantic Scholar for robust identification.
  • Information matching and content validation with scoring, plus LaTeX consistency checks when used with documents.
  • Use cases include validating references before manuscript submission, auditing large bibliographies, and ensuring citation integrity in academic reviews.

Quick Start

Provide a BibTeX entry or LaTeX file to verify; I'll run the four-layer workflow and return a report.

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I verify BibTeX citations and check if references exist before manuscript submission?

To verify BibTeX citations, provide your entries to trigger automated existence checks using DOI-based CrossRef lookups, arXiv searches, and Semantic Scholar queries. This validates required fields and formats, returning a scored report to ensure citation integrity before submission.

Can I check LaTeX consistency and match reference metadata across multiple academic sources?

Yes, you can check LaTeX consistency and match reference metadata using CrossRef, arXiv, and Semantic Scholar. The workflow applies title-based searches and DOI lookups to validate information matching with scoring for accurate scholarly audits.

What is the best way to audit large bibliographies for incomplete BibTeX entries and unverifiable sources?

Auditing large bibliographies for incomplete BibTeX entries is best handled by automated end-to-end citation verification. This enforces robust validation with standardized data structures, rate limiting, and error handling to produce actionable compliance reports.

Does crossref citation verification work with arXiv lookups and Semantic Scholar for academic writing?

CrossRef citation verification works seamlessly with arXiv lookups and Semantic Scholar for academic writing. The system applies DOI-based checks alongside title-based searches to handle BibTeX references and confirm metadata across multiple sources.

Why does citation verification fail on incomplete BibTeX entries and how does format validation handle it?

Citation verification fails on incomplete BibTeX entries due to missing required fields and inconsistent metadata. Format validation addresses this by enforcing standardized data structures and checking field formats before attempting source lookups.
