Overview
Citation Management
This skill manages citations systematically by providing tools for searching academic databases like Google Scholar and PubMed, extracting accurate metadata from CrossRef, PubMed, and arXiv, validating citation information, and generating properly formatted BibTeX entries. It ensures citation accuracy and supports reproducible research workflows. Use this skill when you need to maintain citation accuracy across research projects, avoid reference errors in academic writing, or integrate with multiple academic databases for metadata extraction and validation. It integrates seamlessly with the literature-review skill for comprehensive research workflows.
What it does
This skill manages citations systematically throughout the research and writing process. It provides tools and strategies for searching academic databases (Google Scholar, PubMed), extracting accurate metadata from multiple sources (CrossRef, PubMed, arXiv), validating citation information, and generating properly formatted BibTeX entries.
When to use - and when NOT to
Use this skill when you need to maintain citation accuracy, avoid reference errors, or ensure reproducible research. It is critical for maintaining citation accuracy, avoiding reference errors, and ensuring reproducible research.
Do not use this skill if you do not need to search academic databases, extract metadata from multiple sources, validate citation information, or generate BibTeX entries.
Inputs and outputs
You provide search queries for academic databases, source documents or identifiers that need citation metadata extraction, and citation information that requires validation. You receive accurate metadata extracted from CrossRef, PubMed, and arXiv, validated citation information, and properly formatted BibTeX entries ready for use in your research documents.
