Citation Anchoring
Prevents citation drift by verifying that references remain aligned with their original claims and subsections during the editing process.
The Citation Anchoring skill acts as a regression-check auditor for research and academic writing, ensuring that citations do not migrate across subsections during text polishing or rewriting. By comparing the current document draft against a baseline anchor file, it detects if 'polish drift' has broken the critical alignment between specific claims and their supporting evidence. This tool provides a detailed report of any added, removed, or migrated citation keys, allowing authors to maintain structural integrity and factual accuracy throughout multiple iterations of a manuscript.
