Check the citations in this excerpt and format the references in AMA.
Text: Statin therapy reduced cardiovascular events in high-risk patients.1 Adherence remained the main barrier to benefit.2
References
- Smith J, Lee K. Statins and cardiovascular outcomes. N Engl J Med. 2019;380(9):812-820. doi:10.1056/NEJMoa1900001
- Patel R. Medication adherence in chronic disease. Lancet. 2020;395:doi:10.fake/123
- Read your context and instructions
- Compiled the citation & reference
REFERENCE INTEGRITY NOTE — 2 references checked, style: AMA
- SYNC: All in-text markers (1, 2) map to a reference-list entry; no orphan or uncited references.
- INTEGRITY: Ref 2 — DOI "10.fake/123" is malformed and volume/page data is missing; reference UNVERIFIED.
- IDENTIFIERS: Ref 1 DOI is well-formed; consider adding a PMID. Ref 2 missing valid DOI and page range.
- FORMATTING: Both references conform to AMA; Ref 2 incomplete pending verification.
VERDICT: FAIL — 1 unverifiable reference (Ref 2) must be confirmed against the journal before submission.
Corrected reference list (AMA):
- Smith J, Lee K. Statins and cardiovascular outcomes. N Engl J Med. 2019;380(9):812-820. doi:10.1056/NEJMoa1900001
- Patel R. Medication adherence in chronic disease. Lancet. 2020;395:[volume/pages and valid DOI required — UNVERIFIED].

About this skill
Stop AI Hallucinations in Scholarly Writing
AI agents are notorious for "hallucinating" plausible-sounding but non-existent citations. The Citation & Reference Integrity Manager is a specialized audit tool designed for developers and researchers building high-stakes document workflows where accuracy is non-negotiable.
What it does
This skill executes a rigorous five-pass Quality Control (QC) process on any AI-generated text. It doesn't just reformat text; it monitors sync between in-text markers and the bibliography, validates DOI/PMID structures, and flags suspicious references that lack a real-world footprint.
Key Features
- Integrity Auditing: Identifies fabricated authors, journals, or malformed DOIs.
- Style Enforcement: Native support for AMA (11th ed.), Vancouver (ICMJE), and APA (7th ed.).
- Sync Logic: Catches orphan citations and uncited references automatically.
- Structural Validation: Ensures sequential numbering and correct journal abbreviations.
Why use this skill?
Unlike a standard LLM prompt which often struggles to maintain a numbering system or "double-checks" its own lies, this skill follows a structured verification protocol. It produces a professional Reference Integrity Note and a verdict, giving you a programmatic way to block "hallucinated" research from shipping to clients or journals.
How to use
Skills on Agensi run inside your AI agent. Copy the prompt, paste it into your agent, and it connects to Agensi and installs this skill for you. If a payment is needed, your agent shows it to you first.
