reference-verification skillA

reference-verification is agent-read markdown (skill) from docxology/template: Deterministic anti-hallucination gate for cited references. Resolves each entry in a manuscript .bib file against Crossref, OpenAlex, and arXiv; flags fabricated (identifier resolves to nothing), mismatched (title/author/year disagree), unverifiable (no identifier), unchecked (offline cache miss — never silently OK), and anachronistic (future-dated) citations. Offline-first with a persistent SQLite cache; live network resolution is opt-in. Use when verifying citation existence, auditing a refere.

Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.

How to install

Latest version
mdr add docxology/template/reference-verification@git:20260606.243a3c4
Exact content
mdr add docxology/template/reference-verification@sha256:80eec63f997ae78e

Pin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 to freeze the exact bytes forever. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install reproduces it on any machine.
