aminer-pdf-citation-verifier

aminer-pdf-citation-verifier is a Literature review & citations skill for AI agents, published by CanXiangCC in the aminer-open-skill repository on GitHub. Skillspace rates aminer-pdf-citation-verifier C (74/100) and it passed the safety scan; the rating is based on static analysis only.

[Activation] Use this skill when the user provides a paper PDF (file path or upload) and asks to verify, audit, or fact-check its references / citations / bibliography — e.g. "check whether the references in this PDF are hallucinated", "find fake citations", "verify the bibliography". [Capability] Uploads the PDF to the AMiner pdf-citation-verifier service, polls the asynchronous job, and returns a per-reference classification (REAL / LIKELY_REAL / NEEDS_REVIEW / LIKELY_FAKE / FAKE) plus an overall hallucination summary. [Routing] Do NOT use for general paper search, scholar lookup, citation-intent analysis, or building a citation graph — use aminer-academic-search, aminer-free-academic, or paper-source-trace instead. This skill only verifies whether references actually exist.
