Use when the user asks to "verify citations", "check references", "validate paper citations", or "evaluate reference relevance". It extracts references from LaTeX/PDF papers, checks formatting rules, verifies existence via Crossref / Semantic Scholar / OpenAlex / PubMed / arXiv / dblp / Google Scholar / WebSearch, and scores thematic/semantic relevance.

# CiteCheck — Paper Citation Verification

## Overview

CiteCheck verifies academic paper citations by combining structured parsing with agent-native LLM evaluation. It supports LaTeX source files (preferred) and PDF fallback.

## Workflow

1. **Parse paper**: Call `citecheck` CLI to read LaTeX (preferred) or PDF, extract references and body text
2. **Format check**: Call `citecheck` CLI to validate bibliography entries
3. **Queryability verification**: Call `citecheck` CLI to verify existence via Crossref / Semantic Scholar
4. **Evaluate thematic relevance**: Evaluate directly using the agent's reasoning capabilities — compare cited paper title/abstract/venue against the citing paper
5. **Evaluate semantic accuracy**: Evaluate directly using the agent's reasoning capabilities — compare in-text citation context against cited source content
6. **Generate report**: Aggregate all results into a Markdown report
