Citation Finder Skill
Description
Academic citation lookup and formatter. Given a fuzzy paper title or description (in Chinese or English), searches both Chinese and English academic databases, identifies the most likely paper, and returns formatted citations in GB/T 7714, APA, and MLA formats along with source links.
Trigger Conditions
Use this skill when the user:
- Asks to find a paper or citation (e.g. "帮我找这篇文献", "cite this paper", "这篇论文怎么引用")
- Provides a fuzzy or partial paper title in Chinese or English
- Asks to format a reference in GB/T 7714, APA, or MLA
- Uses keywords: 参考文献, 引用格式, 文献查找, find paper, citation, reference, cite
Workflow
- Detect input language (Chinese / English / mixed)
- Search in parallel:
- English: CrossRef API + Semantic Scholar API
- Chinese: Baidu Scholar (web scrape) + CNKI search
- Score and rank candidates by title similarity + metadata completeness
- If top match confidence > 80%: return directly
- If confidence 50–80%: show top 3 candidates, ask user to confirm
- If confidence < 50%: inform user and ask for more details
- Format confirmed paper into GB/T 7714, APA 7th, MLA 9th
- Return citations + DOI/source URL
