Which citation styles are currently supported?

The engine supports Vancouver (default), APA, AMA, Nature, Chicago, and IEEE styles.

Does this skill fabricate missing citations?

No, the skill has a strict 'Never Fabricate' policy. If a citation cannot be verified through authoritative databases, it is flagged as [UNVERIFIED] for manual review.

Can it detect if a preprint has been published?

Yes, it specifically checks bioRxiv and medRxiv preprints against published databases and suggests updating to the peer-reviewed version if available.

How does the verification pipeline work?

It follows a specific order: first searching PubMed, then falling back to CrossRef, Semantic Scholar, and finally bioRxiv/medRxiv if a match is not found.

学習とドキュメンテーション

Automates scientific citation verification and reference formatting using authoritative databases like PubMed and CrossRef.

The Academic Citation Engine is a specialized skill designed for researchers and technical writers to ensure the integrity and accuracy of scientific bibliographies. It employs a strict verification pipeline—querying PubMed, CrossRef, Semantic Scholar, and bioRxiv—to validate metadata and prevent citation fabrication. Beyond simple formatting, the skill handles intelligent duplicate detection, identifies when preprints have been published in peer-reviewed journals, and performs bidirectional audits to ensure every in-text citation correctly matches the reference list.
