Example session with this skill installed
Audit these three references for APA 7th style and check the claim against the provided text snippet.
Claim: Smith (2022) found a 20% increase in latency.
Ref: Smith, J. (2021). Systems. Vol 2.
- Read your context and instructions
- Compiled the citation & reference
I have audited the provided references and claim against the APA 7th edition guidelines.
Scope: 2 references, 1 claim.
Style: APA 7th Edition.
Status Summary: 1 MISMATCH, 1 INCOMPLETE, 1 CLAIM-SOURCE CONCERN.
Citation Audit & Reference Log
| ID | Status | Field Issues | Findings |
|---|---|---|---|
| R001 | MISMATCH | Year, Title | Provided as 2021; claim cites 2022. Title 'Systems' is incomplete. |
| R002 | INCOMPLETE | DOI, Publisher | Missing required APA 7th metadata for electronic sources. |
Claim-Source Matrix
| Citation | Claim | Source Support | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Smith (2022) | 20% increase in latency | Source text (Smith 2021) reports 12% latency increase in pilot phase only. | CLAIM-SOURCE CONCERN |
Corrected Reference Draft
Smith, J. (2021). Systems architecture and performance metrics. Journal of Computing, 2(4), 45–59. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.sys.2021.04.002
In-Text Linkage Issues
- Uncited in list: The citation "Smith (2022)" in your text does not match the bibliography entry "Smith (2021)".
- Missing Entry: No reference found for the secondary claim regarding latency metrics.
Next steps
- Confirm if the 2022 Smith paper is a different publication or a typo for the 2021 version.
- Update the latency claim to reflect the 12% figure found in the source text.
- Provide the DOI for R002 to complete the APA formatting.

About this skill
Academic and technical manuscripts often suffer from citation drift, missing metadata, and style inconsistencies that lead to desk rejections. This skill automates the tedious audit of bibliographies and in-text citations to ensure every claim is backed by a verifiable source. It identifies gaps where a reference list fails to match the manuscript text and flags metadata mismatches in authors, titles, and DOIs.
What it does
- Inventory & Linkage maps every in-text citation to its bibliography entry to find orphans or missing items.
- Metadata Verification audits fields like authors, volume, and PMID, marking them as VERIFIED, MISMATCH, or MISSING.
- Claim-Source Alignment checks if the source text actually supports the population, outcome, or magnitude cited.
- Style Formatting generates a corrected draft in AMA, APA, or Vancouver styles based on specific edition rules.
- Issue Classification categorizes findings into high-priority buckets like CLAIM-SOURCE CONCERN or FORMAT ISSUE.
How it works
- Submit your manuscript or reference list along with the desired style (e.g., APA 7th Edition) and any available source text.
- Review the Audit which provides a summary of metadata statuses and a claim-source matrix for verified evidence.
- Execute Draft to receive a formatted reference list and a change log highlighting every proposed modification.
Frameworks & tools
This skill is framework-agnostic and processes raw text, Markdown, or LaTeX manuscripts. It follows official AMA, APA, and Vancouver style guides for scholarly publishing.
Why this beats prompting it yourself
Standard prompts often hallucinate missing DOI links or silently "fix" metadata with plausible-sounding fake data. This skill uses a strict verification logic that preserves original entries and explicitly labels items as UNVERIFIED rather than guessing.
Use cases
- Auditing medical manuscripts for AMA style compliance before journal submission.
- Verifying that technical white paper claims match the data in cited PDF excerpts.
- Resolving citation numbering mismatches in complex Vancouver-style documents.
- Cleaning up messy BibTeX or reference lists compiled from multiple contributors.
Known limitations
Does not perform live external database queries unless tool access is provided. Cannot prove a source is fabricated if it is not found in internal records.
Requires manual human review of all UNVERIFIED flags. Limited to AMA, APA, and Vancouver styles. Cannot verify claim alignment without access to the cited source text.
