Citecheck

color4-alt/citecheck

Use when the user asks to "verify citations", "check references", "validate paper citations", or "evaluate reference relevance". It extracts references from LaTeX/PDF papers, checks formatting rules, verifies existence via Crossref / Semantic Scholar / OpenAlex / PubMed / arXiv / dblp / Google Scholar / WebSearch, and scores thematic/semantic relevance.

How to use it

Copy the folder

Take color4-alt/citecheck from the repository into ~/.claude/skills for personal use, or into .claude/skills inside a project.

Check the name does not clash

The agent identifies a skill by the name field in its header. Two skills with the same name cannot sit side by side — one of them will be ignored.

Install what it needs

The instructions reference pip. Without those the skill loads but fails at the first command.
