## When to Use
- You have a batch of references and need a **publication year distribution** table (counts and percentages).
- You need a **journal distribution** table (Top N optional) for a literature review or report appendix.
- Your input is **pasted citations** (BibTeX/RIS/EndNote/plain text/mixed) and you want quick aggregation.
- Your input is **local reference files** (`.bib/.ris/.txt/.csv`) and you want consistent, standardized output.
- You have a **local PDF folder** and want to extract year/journal signals (best-effort) and summarize them.

## Key Features
- Supports multiple input types: pasted text, local reference files, and local PDF directories (via script).
- Extracts **Year** and **Journal** using format-specific parsing rules (BibTeX/RIS/plain text/PDF).
- Produces two standardized tables:
  - **Year distribution**: `year, count, percent`
  - **Journal distribution**: `journal title, count, percent`
