Scientific Revision Skill

This skill provides four tools for document review:

1. Citation Checker — cross-checks in-text citations against the bibliography
2. CrossRef Verifier — checks whether bibliography entries are real publications
3. Scholar Verifier — checks entries against Google Scholar (via scholarly) with Semantic Scholar as fallback
4. Writing Quality Checker — detects AI slop patterns, vague language, and terminology inconsistencies

Works with any document that has a bibliography/references section. Supports APA, MLA, Chicago, and language-native citation styles in English, German, French, and Italian — parenthetical and narrative styles.
