Checks that every in-text citation in a Markdown or LaTeX manuscript has a bibliography entry, and the reverse.
An Agent Skill that cross-checks the citations of a manuscript against its bibliography. It reports
It supports LaTeX (\cite, natbib and biblatex commands) and Pandoc Markdown ([@key], @key),
with BibTeX/BibLaTeX or CSL JSON bibliographies. The patterns are listed in
references/patterns.md.
skills install @spboucher/citation-check --client claude-code
Then ask your agent: "Check the citations of paper.tex against references.bib."
scripts/check_citations.py needs Python 3.8+ and nothing else. It reads only the files you pass
and never uses the network or writes files.
python3 scripts/check_citations.py paper.tex --bib references.bib
python3 scripts/check_citations.py chapter1.md chapter2.md --bib refs.json --json
Exit code 0 means consistent, 1 means problems were found, 2 means a file could not be read.
filesystem:read: the skill reads the manuscript and bibliography files you name.
Keys are compared case-sensitively. Citations produced by custom macros are not detected.
