citation-verification
55 / 100 · Review before installing
Check before installing. Some of what it can do is expected: a research skill usually looks things up on the internet.
By Galaxy-Dawn/claude-scholar (GitHub) · research · 6,038 stars · scanned at commit d394fb5
This skill provides reference guidance for citation verification in academic writing. Use when the user asks about "citation verification best practices", "how to verify references", "preventing fake citations", or needs guidance on citation accuracy. This skill supports ml-paper-writing by providing detailed verification principles and common error patterns.
Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

Install
Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.
if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'citation-verification' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'citation-verification' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named citation-verification already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/Galaxy-Dawn/claude-scholar' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet 'd394fb599ed9e6ea2212a9e6daa864345fe97a26' -- 'skills/citation-verification' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/citation-verification' ~/.agents/skills/'citation-verification' && rm -rf "$d"; fi
Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'citation-verification' ~/.claude/skills/'citation-verification' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
