Trigger Rules
Use this skill when the user request matches its research workflow scope. Prefer the bundled resources instead of recreating templates or reference material. Keep outputs traceable to project files, citations, scripts, or upstream evidence.
Resource Use Rules
- Read from
references/ only when the current task needs the extra detail.
- Treat
scripts/ as optional helpers. Run them only when their dependencies are available, keep outputs in the project workspace, and explain a manual fallback if execution is blocked.
Execution Contract
- Resolve every relative path from this skill directory first.
- Prefer inspection before mutation when invoking bundled scripts.
- If a required runtime, CLI, credential, or API is unavailable, explain the blocker and continue with the best manual fallback instead of silently skipping the step.
- Do not write generated artifacts back into the skill directory; save them inside the active project workspace.
Upstream Instructions
Citation Verification Reference Guide
A reference guide for citation verification in academic paper writing, providing verification principles and best practices.
Core Principle: Proactively verify every citation during the writing process using WebSearch and Google Scholar.
Core Problems
Citation issues in academic papers seriously impact research integrity:
- Fake citations - Citing non-existent papers (common issue with AI-generated citations)
- Incorrect information - Mismatched authors, titles, years, etc.
- Inconsistent formatting - Mixed citation formats
- Missing citations - Referenced but uncited work
These issues can lead to:
- Paper rejection or retraction
- Damage to academic reputation
- Reviewers questioning research rigor
Special risk with AI-assisted writing: AI-generated citations have approximately 40% error rate; every citation must be verified via WebSearch.
Verification Principles
This skill provides verification principles based on WebSearch and Google Scholar:
