+
+# Citation Management
+
+## Overview
+
+Manage citations systematically throughout the research and writing process. This skill provides tools and strategies for searching academic databases (Google Scholar, PubMed), extracting accurate metadata from multiple sources (CrossRef, PubMed, arXiv), validating citation information, and generating properly formatted BibTeX entries.
+
+Critical for maintaining citation accuracy, avoiding reference errors, and ensuring reproducible research. Integrates seamlessly with the literature-review skill for comprehensive research workflows.
+
+## When to Use This Skill
+
+Use this skill when:
+- Searching for specific papers on Google Scholar or PubMed
+- Converting DOIs, PMIDs, or arXiv IDs to properly formatted BibTeX
+- Extracting complete metadata for citations (authors, title, journal, year, etc.)
+- Validating existing citations for accuracy
+- Cleaning and formatting BibTeX files
+- Finding highly cited papers in a specific field
+- Verifying that citation information matches the actual publication
+- Building a bibliography for a manuscript or thesis
+- Checking for duplicate citations
+- Ensuring consistent citation formatting
+
+## Visual Enhancement with Scientific Schematics
+
+**When creating documents with this skill, always consider adding scientific diagrams and schematics to enhance visual communication.**
+
+If your document does not already contain schematics or diagrams:
+- Use the **scientific-schematics** skill to generate AI-powered publication-quality diagrams
+- Simply describe your desired diagram in natural language
+- Nano Banana Pro will automatically generate, review, and refine the schematic
+
+**For new documents:** Scientific schematics should be generated by default to visually represent key concepts, workflows, architectures, or relationships described in the text.
+
+**How to generate schematics:**
+```bash
+python scripts/generate_schematic.py "your diagram description" -o figures/output.png
+```
+
+The AI will automatically:
+- Create publication-quality images with proper formatting
+- Review and refine through multiple iterations
+- Ensure accessibility (colorblind-friendly, high contrast)
+- Save outputs in the figures/ directory
+
+**When to add schematics:**
+- Citation workflow diagrams
+- Literature search methodology flowcharts
+- Reference management system architectures
+- Citation style decision trees
+- Database integration diagrams
+- Any complex concept that benefits from visualization
+
+For detailed guidance on creating schematics, refer to the scientific-schematics skill documentation.
+
+---
+
+## Core Workflow
+
+Citation management follows a systematic process:
+
+### Phase 1: Paper Discovery and Search
+
+**Goal**: Find relevant papers using academic search engines.
+
+#### Google Scholar Search
+
+Google Scholar provides the most comprehensive coverage across disciplines.
+
+**Basic Search**:
+```bash
+# Search for papers on a topic
+python scripts/search_google_scholar.py "CRISPR gene editing" \
+  --limit 50 \
+  --output results.json
+
+# Search with year filter
+python scripts/search_google_scholar.py "machine learning protein folding" \
+  --year-start 2020 \
+  --year-end 2024 \
+  --limit 100 \
+  --output ml_proteins.json
+```
+
+**Advanced Search Strategies** (see `references/google_scholar_search.md`):
+- Use quotation marks for exact phrases: `"deep learning"`
+- Search by author: `author:LeCun`
+- Search in title: `intitle:"neural networks"`
+- Exclude terms: `machine learning -survey`
+- Find highly cited papers using sort options
+- Filter by date ranges to get recent work
+
+**Best Practices**:
+- Use specific, targeted search terms
+- Include key technical terms and acronyms
+- Filter by recent years for fast-moving fields
+- Check "Cited by" to find seminal papers
+- Export top results for further analysis
+
+#### PubMed Search
+
+PubMed specializes in biomedical and life sciences literature (35+ million citations).
+
+**Basic Search**:
+```bash
+# Search PubMed
+python scripts/search_pubmed.py "Alzheimer's disease treatment" \
+  --limit 100 \
+  --output alzheimers.json
+
+# Search with MeSH terms and filters
+python scripts/search_pubmed.py \
+  --query '"Alzheimer Disease"[MeSH] AND "Drug Therapy"[MeSH]' \
+  --date-start 2020 \
+  --date-end 2024 \
+  --publication-types "Clinical Trial,Review" \
+  --output alzheimers_trials.json
+```
+
+**Advanced PubMed Queries** (see `references/pubmed_search.md`):
+- Use MeSH terms: `"Diabetes Mellitus"[MeSH]`
+- Field tags: `"cancer"[Title]`, `"Smith J"[Author]`
+- Boolean operators: `AND`, `OR`, `NOT`
+- Date filters: `2020:2024[Publication Date]`
+- Publication types: `"Review"[Publication Type]`
+- Combine with E-utilities API for automation
+
+**Best Practices**:
+- Use MeSH Browser to find correct controlled vocabulary
+- Construct complex queries in PubMed Advanced Search Builder first
+- Include multiple synonyms with OR
+- Retrieve PMIDs for easy metadata extraction
+- Export to JSON or directly to BibTeX
+
+### Phase 2: Metadata Extraction
+
+**Goal**: Convert paper identifiers (DOI, PMID, arXiv ID) to complete, accurate metadata.
+
+#### Quick DOI to BibTeX Conversion
+
+For single DOIs, use the quick conversion tool:
+
+```bash
+# Convert single DOI
+python scripts/doi_to_bibtex.py 10.1038/s41586-021-03819-2
+
+# Convert multiple DOIs from a file
+python scripts/doi_to_bibtex.py --input dois.txt --output references.bib
+
+# Different output formats
+python scripts/doi_to_bibtex.py 10.1038/nature12345 --format json
+```
+
+#### Comprehensive Metadata Extraction
+
+For DOIs, PMIDs, arXiv IDs, or URLs:
+
+```bash
+# Extract from DOI
+python scripts/extract_metadata.py --doi 10.1038/s41586-021-03819-2
+
+# Extract from PMID
+python scripts/extract_metadata.py --pmid 34265844
+
+# Extract from arXiv ID
+python scripts/extract_metadata.py --arxiv 2103.14030
+
+# Extract from URL
+python scripts/extract_metadata.py --url "https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-021-03819-2"
+
+# Batch extraction from file (mixed identifiers)
+python scripts/extract_metadata.py --input identifiers.txt --output citations.bib
+```
+
+**Metadata Sources** (see `references/metadata_extraction.md`):
+
+1. **CrossRef API**: Primary source for DOIs
+   - Comprehensive metadata for journal articles
+   - Publisher-provided information
+   - Includes authors, title, journal, volume, pages, dates
+   - Free, no API key required
+
+2. **PubMed E-utilities**: Biomedical literature
+   - Official NCBI metadata
+   - Includes MeSH terms, abstracts
+   - PMID and PMCID identifiers
+   - Free, API key recommended for high volume
+
+3. **arXiv API**: Preprints in physics, math, CS, q-bio
+   - Complete metadata for preprints
+   - Version tracking
+   - Author affiliations
+   - Free, open access
+
+4. **DataCite API**: Research datasets, software, other resources
+   - Metadata for non-traditional scholarly outputs
+   - DOIs for datasets and code
+   - Free access
+
+**What Gets Extracted**:
+- **Required fields**: author, title, year
+- **Journal articles**: journal, volume, number, pages, DOI
+- **Books**: publisher, ISBN, edition
+- **Conference papers**: booktitle, conference location, pages
+- **Preprints**: repository (arXiv, bioRxiv), preprint ID
+- **Additional**: abstract, keywords, URL
+
+### Phase 3: BibTeX Formatting
+
+**Goal**: Generate clean, properly formatted BibTeX entries.
+
+#### Understanding BibTeX Entry Types
+
+See `references/bibtex_formatting.md` for complete guide.
+
+**Common Entry Types**:
+- `@article`: Journal articles (most common)
+- `@book`: Books
+- `@inproceedings`: Conference papers
+- `@incollection`: Book chapters
+- `@phdthesis`: Dissertations
+- `@misc`: Preprints, software, datasets
+
+**Required Fields by Type**:
+
+```bibtex
+@article{citationkey,
+  author  = {Last1, First1 and Last2, First2},
+  title   = {Article Title},
+  journal = {Journal Name},
+  year    = {2024},
+  volume  = {10},
+  number  = {3},
+  pages   = {123--145},
+  doi     = {10.1234/example}
+}
+
+@inproceedings{citationkey,
+  author    = {Last, First},
+  title     = {Paper Title},
+  booktitle = {Conference Name},
+  year      = {2024},
+  pages     = {1--10}
+}
+
+@book{citationkey,
+  author    = {Last, First},
+  title     = {Book Title},
+  publisher = {Publisher Name},
+  year      = {2024}
+}
+```
+
+#### Formatting and Cleaning
+
+Use the formatter to standardize BibTeX files:
+
+```bash
+# Format and clean BibTeX file
+python scripts/format_bibtex.py references.bib \
+  --output formatted_references.bib
+
+# Sort entries by citation key
+python scripts/format_bibtex.py references.bib \
+  --sort key \
+  --output sorted_references.bib
+
+# Sort by year (newest first)
+python scripts/format_bibtex.py references.bib \
+  --sort year \
+  --descending \
+  --output sorted_references.bib
+
+# Remove duplicates
+python scripts/format_bibtex.py references.bib \
+  --deduplicate \
+  --output clean_references.bib
+
+# Validate and report issues
+python scripts/format_bibtex.py references.bib \
+  --validate \
+  --report validation_report.txt
+```
+
+**Formatting Operations**:
+- Standardize field order
+- Consistent indentation and spacing
+- Proper capitalization in titles (protected with {})
+- Standardized author name format
+- Consistent citation key format
+- Remove unnecessary fields
+- Fix common errors (missing commas, braces)
+
+### Phase 4: Citation Validation
+
+**Goal**: Verify all citations are accurate and complete.
+
+#### Comprehensive Validation
+
+```bash
+# Validate BibTeX file
+python scripts/validate_citations.py references.bib
+
+# Validate and fix common issues
+python scripts/validate_citations.py references.bib \
+  --auto-fix \
+  --output validated_references.bib
+
+# Generate detailed validation report
+python scripts/validate_citations.py references.bib \
+  --report validation_report.json \
+  --verbose
+```
+
+**Validation Checks** (see `references/citation_validation.md`):
+
+1. **DOI Verification**:
+   - DOI resolves correctly via doi.org
+   - Metadata matches between BibTeX and CrossRef
+   - No broken or invalid DOIs
+
+2. **Required Fields**:
+   - All required fields present for entry type
+   - No empty or missing critical information
+   - Author names properly formatted
+
+3. **Data Consistency**:
+   - Year is valid (4 digits, reasonable range)
+   - Volume/number are numeric
+   - Pages formatted correctly (e.g., 123--145)
+   - URLs are accessible
+
+4. **Duplicate Detection**:
+   - Same DOI used multiple times
+   - Similar titles (possible duplicates)
+   - Same author/year/title combinations
+
+5. **Format Compliance**:
+   - Valid BibTeX syntax
+   - Proper bracing and quoting
+   - Citation keys are unique
+   - Special characters handled correctly
+
+**Validation Output**:
+```json
+{
+  "total_entries": 150,
+  "valid_entries": 145,
+  "errors": [
+    {
+      "citation_key": "Smith2023",
+      "error_type": "missing_field",
+      "field": "journal",
+      "severity": "high"
+    },
+    {
+      "citation_key": "Jones2022",
+      "error_type": "invalid_doi",
+      "doi": "10.1234/broken",
+      "severity": "high"
+    }
+  ],
+  "warnings": [
+    {
+      "citation_key": "Brown2021",
+      "warning_type": "possible_duplicate",
+      "duplicate_of": "Brown2021a",
+      "severity": "medium"
+    }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+### Phase 5: Integration with Writing Workflow
+
+#### Building References for Manuscripts
+
+Complete workflow for creating a bibliography:
+
+```bash
+# 1. Search for papers on your topic
+python scripts/search_pubmed.py \
+  '"CRISPR-Cas Systems"[MeSH] AND "Gene Editing"[MeSH]' \
+  --date-start 2020 \
+  --limit 200 \
+  --output crispr_papers.json
+
+# 2. Extract DOIs from search results and convert to BibTeX
+python scripts/extract_metadata.py \
+  --input crispr_papers.json \
+  --output crispr_refs.bib
+
+# 3. Add specific papers by DOI
+python scripts/doi_to_bibtex.py 10.1038/nature12345 >> crispr_refs.bib
+python scripts/doi_to_bibtex.py 10.1126/science.abcd1234 >> crispr_refs.bib
+
+# 4. Format and clean the BibTeX file
+python scripts/format_bibtex.py crispr_refs.bib \
+  --deduplicate \
+  --sort year \
+  --descending \
+  --output references.bib
+
+# 5. Validate all citations
+python scripts/validate_citations.py references.bib \
+  --auto-fix \
+  --report validation.json \
+  --output final_references.bib
+
+# 6. Review validation report and fix any remaining issues
+cat validation.json
+
+# 7. Use in your LaTeX document
+# \bibliography{final_references}
+```
+
+#### Integration with Literature Review Skill
+
+This skill complements the `literature-review` skill:
+
+**Literature Review Skill** → Systematic search and synthesis
+**Citation Management Skill** → Technical citation handling
+
+**Combined Workflow**:
+1. Use `literature-review` for comprehensive multi-database search
+2. Use `citation-management` to extract and validate all citations
+3. Use `literature-review` to synthesize findings thematically
+4. Use `citation-management` to verify final bibliography accuracy
+
+```bash
+# After completing literature review
+# Verify all citations in the review document
+python scripts/validate_citations.py my_review_references.bib --report review_validation.json
+
+# Format for specific citation style if needed
+python scripts/format_bibtex.py my_review_references.bib \
+  --style nature \
+  --output formatted_refs.bib
+```
+
+## Search Strategies
+
+### Google Scholar Best Practices
+
+**Finding Seminal Papers**:
+- Sort by citation count (most cited first)
+- Look for review articles for overview
+- Check "Cited by" for impact assessment
+- Use citation alerts for tracking new citations
+
+**Advanced Operators** (full list in `references/google_scholar_search.md`):
+```
+"exact phrase"           # Exact phrase matching
+author:lastname          # Search by author
+intitle:keyword          # Search in title only
+source:journal           # Search specific journal
+-exclude                 # Exclude terms
+OR                       # Alternative terms
+2020..2024              # Year range
+```
+
+**Example Searches**:
+```
+# Find recent reviews on a topic
+"CRISPR" intitle:review 2023..2024
+
+# Find papers by specific author on topic
+author:Church "synthetic biology"
+
+# Find highly cited foundational work
+"deep learning" 2012..2015 sort:citations
+
+# Exclude surveys and focus on methods
+"protein folding" -survey -review intitle:method
+```
+
+### PubMed Best Practices
+
+**Using MeSH Terms**:
+MeSH (Medical Subject Headings) provides controlled vocabulary for precise searching.
+
+1. **Find MeSH terms** at https://meshb.nlm.nih.gov/search
+2. **Use in queries**: `"Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2"[MeSH]`
+3. **Combine with keywords** for comprehensive coverage
+
+**Field Tags**:
+```
+[Title]              # Search in title only
+[Title/Abstract]     # Search in title or abstract
+[Author]             # Search by author name
+[Journal]            # Search specific journal
+[Publication Date]   # Date range
+[Publication Type]   # Article type
+[MeSH]              # MeSH term
+```
+
+**Building Complex Queries**:
+```bash
+# Clinical trials on diabetes treatment published recently
+"Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2"[MeSH] AND "Drug Therapy"[MeSH] 
+AND "Clinical Trial"[Publication Type] AND 2020:2024[Publication Date]
+
+# Reviews on CRISPR in specific journal
+"CRISPR-Cas Systems"[MeSH] AND "Nature"[Journal] AND "Review"[Publication Type]
+
+# Specific author's recent work
+"Smith AB"[Author] AND cancer[Title/Abstract] AND 2022:2024[Publication Date]
+```
+
+**E-utilities for Automation**:
+The scripts use NCBI E-utilities API for programmatic access:
+- **ESearch**: Search and retrieve PMIDs
+- **EFetch**: Retrieve full metadata
+- **ESummary**: Get summary information
+- **ELink**: Find related articles
+
+See `references/pubmed_search.md` for complete API documentation.

+## Best Practices
+
+### Search Strategy
+
+1. **Start broad, then narrow**:
+   - Begin with general terms to understand the field
+   - Refine with specific keywords and filters
+   - Use synonyms and related terms
+
+2. **Use multiple sources**:
+   - Google Scholar for comprehensive coverage
+   - PubMed for biomedical focus
+   - arXiv for preprints
+   - Combine results for completeness
+
+3. **Leverage citations**:
+   - Check "Cited by" for seminal papers
+   - Review references from key papers
+   - Use citation networks to discover related work
+
+4. **Document your searches**:
+   - Save search queries and dates
+   - Record number of results
+   - Note any filters or restrictions applied
+
+### Metadata Extraction
+
+1. **Always use DOIs when available**:
+   - Most reliable identifier
+   - Permanent link to the publication
+   - Best metadata source via CrossRef
+
+2. **Verify extracted metadata**:
+   - Check author names are correct
+   - Verify journal/conference names
+   - Confirm publication year
+   - Validate page numbers and volume
+
+3. **Handle edge cases**:
+   - Preprints: Include repository and ID
+   - Preprints later published: Use published version
+   - Conference papers: Include conference name and location
+   - Book chapters: Include book title and editors
+
+4. **Maintain consistency**:
+   - Use consistent author name format
+   - Standardize journal abbreviations
+   - Use same DOI format (URL preferred)
+
+### BibTeX Quality
+
+1. **Follow conventions**:
+   - Use meaningful citation keys (FirstAuthor2024keyword)
+   - Protect capitalization in titles with {}
+   - Use -- for page ranges (not single dash)
+   - Include DOI field for all modern publications
+
+2. **Keep it clean**:
+   - Remove unnecessary fields
+   - No redundant information
+   - Consistent formatting
+   - Validate syntax regularly
+
+3. **Organize systematically**:
+   - Sort by year or topic
+   - Group related papers
+   - Use separate files for different projects
+   - Merge carefully to avoid duplicates
+
+### Validation
+
+1. **Validate early and often**:
+   - Check citations when adding them
+   - Validate complete bibliography before submission
+   - Re-validate after any manual edits
+
+2. **Fix issues promptly**:
+   - Broken DOIs: Find correct identifier
+   - Missing fields: Extract from original source
+   - Duplicates: Choose best version, remove others
+   - Format errors: Use auto-fix when safe
+
+3. **Manual review for critical citations**:
+   - Verify key papers cited correctly
+   - Check author names match publication
+   - Confirm page numbers and volume
+   - Ensure URLs are current
+
+## Common Pitfalls to Avoid
+
+1. **Single source bias**: Only using Google Scholar or PubMed
+   - **Solution**: Search multiple databases for comprehensive coverage
+
+2. **Accepting metadata blindly**: Not verifying extracted information
+   - **Solution**: Spot-check extracted metadata against original sources
+
+3. **Ignoring DOI errors**: Broken or incorrect DOIs in bibliography
+   - **Solution**: Run validation before final submission
+
+4. **Inconsistent formatting**: Mixed citation key styles, formatting
+   - **Solution**: Use format_bibtex.py to standardize
+
+5. **Duplicate entries**: Same paper cited multiple times with different keys
+   - **Solution**: Use duplicate detection in validation
+
+6. **Missing required fields**: Incomplete BibTeX entries
+   - **Solution**: Validate and ensure all required fields present
+
+7. **Outdated preprints**: Citing preprint when published version exists
+   - **Solution**: Check if preprints have been published, update to journal version
+
+8. **Special character issues**: Broken LaTeX compilation due to characters
+   - **Solution**: Use proper escaping or Unicode in BibTeX
+
+9. **No validation before submission**: Submitting with citation errors
+   - **Solution**: Always run validation as final check
+
+10. **Manual BibTeX entry**: Typing entries by hand
+    - **Solution**: Always extract from metadata sources using scripts
+
+## Example Workflows
+
+### Example 1: Building a Bibliography for a Paper
+
+```bash
+# Step 1: Find key papers on your topic
+python scripts/search_google_scholar.py "transformer neural networks" \
+  --year-start 2017 \
+  --limit 50 \
+  --output transformers_gs.json
+
+python scripts/search_pubmed.py "deep learning medical imaging" \
+  --date-start 2020 \
+  --limit 50 \
+  --output medical_dl_pm.json
+
+# Step 2: Extract metadata from search results
+python scripts/extract_metadata.py \
+  --input transformers_gs.json \
+  --output transformers.bib
+
+python scripts/extract_metadata.py \
+  --input medical_dl_pm.json \
+  --output medical.bib
+
+# Step 3: Add specific papers you already know
+python scripts/doi_to_bibtex.py 10.1038/s41586-021-03819-2 >> specific.bib
+python scripts/doi_to_bibtex.py 10.1126/science.aam9317 >> specific.bib
+
+# Step 4: Combine all BibTeX files
+cat transformers.bib medical.bib specific.bib > combined.bib
+
+# Step 5: Format and deduplicate
+python scripts/format_bibtex.py combined.bib \
+  --deduplicate \
+  --sort year \
+  --descending \
+  --output formatted.bib
+
+# Step 6: Validate
+python scripts/validate_citations.py formatted.bib \
+  --auto-fix \
+  --report validation.json \
+  --output final_references.bib
+
+# Step 7: Review any issues
+cat validation.json | grep -A 3 '"errors"'
+
+# Step 8: Use in LaTeX
+# \bibliography{final_references}
+```
+
+### Example 2: Converting a List of DOIs
+
+```bash
+# You have a text file with DOIs (one per line)
+# dois.txt contains:
+# 10.1038/s41586-021-03819-2
+# 10.1126/science.aam9317
+# 10.1016/j.cell.2023.01.001
+
+# Convert all to BibTeX
+python scripts/doi_to_bibtex.py --input dois.txt --output references.bib
+
+# Validate the result
+python scripts/validate_citations.py references.bib --verbose
+```
+
+### Example 3: Cleaning an Existing BibTeX File
+
+```bash
+# You have a messy BibTeX file from various sources
+# Clean it up systematically
+
+# Step 1: Format and standardize
+python scripts/format_bibtex.py messy_references.bib \
+  --output step1_formatted.bib
+
+# Step 2: Remove duplicates
+python scripts/format_bibtex.py step1_formatted.bib \
+  --deduplicate \
+  --output step2_deduplicated.bib
+
+# Step 3: Validate and auto-fix
+python scripts/validate_citations.py step2_deduplicated.bib \
+  --auto-fix \
+  --output step3_validated.bib
+
+# Step 4: Sort by year
+python scripts/format_bibtex.py step3_validated.bib \
+  --sort year \
+  --descending \
+  --output clean_references.bib
+
+# Step 5: Final validation report
+python scripts/validate_citations.py clean_references.bib \
+  --report final_validation.json \
+  --verbose
+
+# Review report
+cat final_validation.json
+```
+
+### Example 4: Finding and Citing Seminal Papers
+
+```bash
+# Find highly cited papers on a topic
+python scripts/search_google_scholar.py "AlphaFold protein structure" \
+  --year-start 2020 \
+  --year-end 2024 \
+  --sort-by citations \
+  --limit 20 \
+  --output alphafold_seminal.json
+
+# Extract the top 10 by citation count
+# (script will have included citation counts in JSON)
+
+# Convert to BibTeX
+python scripts/extract_metadata.py \
+  --input alphafold_seminal.json \
+  --output alphafold_refs.bib
+
+# The BibTeX file now contains the most influential papers
+```
