What it does
Citation Search is an agent skill from larbare12/paperfactory-from-idea-to-manuscript. 学术文献检索与质量验证。覆盖 Semantic Scholar / CrossRef / arXiv / OpenAlex 四源,内置 Tier 0 反幻觉校验(DOI 反查 + Levenshtein ≥ 0.70) 和 venue quality 过滤(CCF + JCR 影响因子,arXiv 引用阈值)。任何需要 查文献、验证引用真实性、评估期刊/会议质量、生成 BibTeX、或建立证据池 的场景都应调用本 skill,而不是让 Claude 凭记忆产出引用。M0-M9 模块在 执行文献检索时统一委托给本 skill,不重复实现。
Its SKILL.md is about 1.9k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 26 other files, including scripts (for example `config/README.md`, `config/api.json` and `reference/anti-hallucination-protocol.md`).
It sits in Research & Science, covering Academic paper search and Citation management. It works with arXiv, Semantic Scholar and LaTeX. The repository describes itself as: 能够实现：人提供idea，agent自动帮你生成论文.
When your agent uses it
- Tasks that involve Academic paper search
- Tasks that involve Citation management
Example prompts
- “/citation-search”
Requirements
- Python 3
- A Bash shell
- A credential in S2_API_KEY
- Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash, Read, Write, Edit, Grep, Glob
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 869103c. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:
BashReadWriteEditGrepGlob
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Ships 7 files in scripts/ (Shell, from the files we listed), which the agent can run.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
bashpip
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:
semanticscholar.org
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:
S2_API_KEY
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Citation Search loads about 1.9k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 72 tokens; SKILL.md has 422 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: notes
The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

When should I use Citation Search?
Citation Search fits situations like: tasks that involve Academic paper search; tasks that involve Citation management.
How do I install Citation Search in Claude Code?
Run `npx skills add larbare12/paperfactory-from-idea-to-manuscript --skill citation-search -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/citation-search in larbare12/paperfactory-from-idea-to-manuscript) into .claude/skills/citation-search in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
How do I install Citation Search in Codex?
Run `npx skills add larbare12/paperfactory-from-idea-to-manuscript --skill citation-search -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/citation-search in larbare12/paperfactory-from-idea-to-manuscript) into .agents/skills/citation-search in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Can I use Citation Search in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add larbare12/paperfactory-from-idea-to-manuscript --skill citation-search -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/citation-search, .gemini/skills/citation-search, .github/skills/citation-search and .opencode/skills/citation-search in your project.
What does Citation Search need to run?
Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Citation Search needs a shell for the scripts in its folder, the command-line tools its instructions call (bash and pip) and credentials named S2_API_KEY. Our summary lists: Python 3; A Bash shell; A credential in S2_API_KEY. Its frontmatter pre-approves these tools: Bash, Read, Write, Edit, Grep, Glob.
Does Citation Search access the network?
SKILL.md names 1 domain. In commands or code: semanticscholar.org; the agent is likely to contact it when it follows the instructions. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Is Citation Search safe to install?
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found notes only (mentions a .env file; pre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: bash)), nothing it rates as a warning. It is not a guarantee. The check reads SKILL.md only: the scripts in the folder are not scanned, so read them before running anything.
What licence does Citation Search use?
No licence was found for Citation Search or its repository. Without one, default copyright applies: ask the author before reusing or redistributing it.
How many tokens does Citation Search use?
About 1.9k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 7.5k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
What are the alternatives to Citation Search?
Skills that share tags, products or a category with Citation Search: Literature Review Agent (Ar9av/PaperOrchestra, 679 stars), Nature Academic Search (jing1312/nature-figure-skill, 171 stars), Literature Review (Norman-bury/research-writing-skill, 3.4k stars) and Literature Search (lingzhi227/agent-research-skills, 390 stars). The comparison table on this page puts their stars, adoption, token cost, safety result and licence side by side.
