SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires crossref rest api, ncbi e-utilities, and includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

It helps you convert manuscript text or standalone claims into defensible Nature/CNS-family citation exports, with segment-level mapping so you can insert the right references into the right sentences.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Segment-to-citation mapping: splits long text into citable segments with stable IDs (e.g., S001, S002) and proposes insertion points for in-text citations.
  • Strict journal-family searching: searches only within Nature Portfolio (including Nature Communications/npj/etc.), the AAAS Science family, and Cell Press, with optional flagship-only scope.
  • Reference-manager exports: generates one import-ready file by default (ENW, RIS, or Zotero RDF) plus optional review artifacts for screening and curation.
  • Conservative evidence handling: grades support (strong/partial/background/limiting/metadata-only) and warns against overclaiming or using metadata-only candidates as proof.

Quick Start

Use nature-citation to paste your manuscript text and automatically get Nature/CNS-family citation exports and an HTML review page mapping segment IDs to citation candidates.

Frequently Asked Questions about nature-citation

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate Nature and CNS citations from manuscript text?▼

The tool splits manuscript text into citable segments with stable IDs, searches exclusively within Nature Portfolio, Science family, and Cell Press journals within a date range, and evaluates evidence conservatively to grade support levels from strong to metadata-only.

How do I export references to Zotero, EndNote, or RIS format?▼

You can export references to a single import-ready format by default—choosing from ENW for EndNote, RIS, or Zotero RDF—alongside optional HTML review artifacts that map segment IDs to citation candidates for user curation.

Can I search for citations only within flagship Nature, Science, and Cell journals?▼

Yes, you can apply strict journal-family searching with an optional flagship-only scope to limit retrieval exclusively to Nature, Science, and Cell Press flagship journals, excluding broader sub-journal portfolios.

Does this tool use Crossref and NCBI APIs for academic literature search?▼

Yes, the tool depends on the Crossref REST API and NCBI E-utilities to query academic literature databases, retrieve metadata, and match manuscript text segments to defensible Nature or CNS citation candidates.

What are the limitations of using metadata-only citation candidates?▼

Metadata-only candidates lack full-text validation and should not be used as definitive proof; the tool applies conservative evidence handling by grading support levels and explicitly warning against overclaiming based solely on metadata.
