What it does

Citation Validator is an agent skill from liangdabiao/Claude-Code-Deep-Research-main. 验证研究报告中所有声明的引用准确性、来源质量和格式规范性。确保每个事实性声明都有可验证的来源,并提供来源质量评级。当最终确定研究报告、审查他人研究、发布或分享研究之前使用此技能。

Its SKILL.md is about 1.4k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files (for example `examples.md` and `instructions.md`).

It sits in Research & Science, covering Citation management. The repository describes itself as: 利用claude code agent框架一步一步实现deep research!很强大很简单的skills。我一步一步介绍实现deep research,因为deep research就是agent框架第一应用,对比一下各个框架实现这个deep….

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Citation management

Example prompts

  • “/citation-validator”

Workflow steps

7 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Claim Detection
  2. Citation Presence Check
  3. Citation Completeness Check
  4. Source Quality Assessment
  5. Citation Accuracy Verification
  6. Hallucination Detection
  7. Chain-of-Verification for Critical Claims

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 2120f68. 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 (its code samples are markdown).

    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
    • gartner.com

    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 Validator loads about 1.4k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 27 tokens; SKILL.md has 580 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~27
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.4k

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

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 580 words (~1,437 tokens).

“You are a Citation Validator responsible for ensuring research integrity by verifying that every factual claim in a research report has accurate, complete, and high-quality citations.”
