How does this help with automated research audits?

It identifies sections with low citation variety and calculates a 'budget' of unused, relevant keys to ensure your document meets global unique-citation requirements.

Can it work without a bibliography file?

No, it requires a valid ref.bib file as it only proposes citation keys that already exist in your local environment.

Does this skill add new information or claims to my paper?

No, the Citation Diversifier strictly follows a 'no new facts' guardrail. It only suggests adding citations from your existing bibliography that support claims already present in your draft.

Does it automatically edit my draft?

No, this skill produces a report (constraint sheet). You then use the citation-injector skill to apply these suggestions to your draft.

What files does Citation Diversifier need to function?

It requires your draft markdown file, a YAML outline, a .bib bibliography file, and a context pack (JSONL) that maps allowed keys to specific sections.

Learning & Documentation

Increases citation density and diversity in research drafts by generating structured reference allocation plans without adding new facts.

About

The Citation Diversifier skill addresses a common failure mode in automated research pipelines where drafts appear under-cited or over-reliant on a small subset of sources. It analyzes existing drafts against a bibliography to generate a 'citation budget' report, providing specific placement hints for each subsection. By mapping available bibliographic keys to relevant sections without introducing new claims, it helps technical and academic documents pass rigorous 'unique-citation' audits while maintaining complete factual integrity.

Key Features

Generates a structured CITATION_BUDGET_REPORT.md with per-subsection reference targets
Prioritizes citation selection based on hierarchical scope (subsection, chapter, or global)
Allocates unique bibliographic keys from existing .bib files to specific H3 headers
Strictly enforces a 'no new facts' guardrail to prevent hallucination or scope creep
89 GitHub stars
Provides actionable placement hints for seamless integration into existing prose

Use Cases

Diversifying the evidence base of a literature review or technical survey
Resolving pipeline audit failures caused by low unique citation counts
Strengthening the scholarly positioning of a draft before final polishing
