citation-forensics
Citation-integrity forensics: is every reference real, correctly attributed, and used in a context the cited work actually supports? Catches hallucinated references (no paper at the claimed arXiv id/DOI/venue, fabricated authors/year), metadata drift (wrong year/venue/version), and wrong-context citations (a real paper cited for a claim it never makes — or argues against). A hot zone for machine-generated papers. Decidable at L0 (text + canonical sources). Span-anchored to the evidence ledger (claims.json); the executor gathers canonical facts (DBLP / arXiv / DOI), then one FRESH cross-model thread per cited key proposes findings; reviewer != adjudicator. Emits citation-forensics.findings.json; NEVER computes the verdict. Triggers: "citation forensics", "check the references", "hallucinated citations", "wrong-context citation", "verify references", "引用核对".

# Citation Forensics — are the references real and honestly used?
Audit citation integrity for: **$ARGUMENTS** (requires `claims.json` from
`/evidence-ledger`; reasons over its `type:"citation"` claims). Emit span-anchored
`citation-forensics.findings.json`. This skill computes **no verdict**.
> 🔒 **Do not wrap this skill in `/loop`, `/schedule`, or `CronCreate`.** It is
> verdict-bearing input — it proposes the citation findings the deterministic
> adjudicator turns into the report. Re-firing it on a wall-clock timer adds no
> signal: its output changes only when the **paper / ledger / bibliography**
> changes, not with the clock, and each run spends real cross-model + lookup budget
> per cited key. Schedule the *external wait that precedes it* — bibliography
> finalized → ledger rebuilt → audit **once**. (Mirrors ARIS's external-cadence
> doctrine.)
