What it does
Citation Check is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Auto-Empirical-Research-Skills. Audit in-text/reference parity, DOIs, claim support, and citation style.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.7k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Research & Science, covering Citation management. It works with LaTeX. The repository describes itself as: 🔬 A curated collection of 23,000+ agent skills for empirical research across 8 social science disciplines. | 精选 23,000+ AI Agent 技能库，覆盖8大社会科学学科的实证研究。CoPaper.AI…
When your agent uses it
- Tasks that involve Citation management
Example prompts
- “/citation-check”
Workflow steps
6 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
- Orient before checking
- Build the citation inventory
- Run structural checks
- Verify source existence and identifiers
- Check style and completeness
- Audit evidentiary use
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9fa87d8. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:
doi.org
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Citation Check loads about 1.7k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 22 tokens; SKILL.md has 756 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.
SKILL.md
Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 756 words (~1,656 tokens).
“This is an original Open Science Skills workflow adapted for experimental social science. It remixes general citation-check and source-verification ideas from Cheng-I Wu's Academic Research Skills for Claude Code (CC BY-NC 4.0), especially the separation between citation formatting, existence checks…”
