Traversing Citation Networks

Overview

Intelligently follow citations backward (references) and forward (citing papers) using Semantic Scholar API.

Core principle: Only follow citations relevant to user's query. Avoid exponential explosion by filtering before traversing.

When to Use

Use this skill when:

• Found a highly relevant paper (score ≥ 7)
• Need to find related work
• User asks "what papers cite this?"
• Building comprehensive understanding of a topic
