research-architect-citation

research-architect-citation is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from mmTheBest/Research-Architect. It costs 41 tokens per session (577 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A citation-support workflow for Research Architect projects and existing drafts. It links individual claims—specific statements in a paper—to literature that directly supports them.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to support background, methods, interpretation, limitations, positioning, or revisions with claim-level literature citations.
Why use it?
It helps replace broad, unfocused searching with evidence matched to each claim, while recording what each source actually supports.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

research-architect-citation scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 12d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Research Architect Citation Support

Build claim-level citation support separately from exemplar learning. An exemplar teaches transferable structure; a citation supports a specific statement.

Inputs

Read when available:

paper_output/project_config.json
paper_output/terminology_ledger.md             # when present
paper_output/concept_dossier.md
paper_output/gap_map.md
paper_output/confirmed_research_spine.md
paper_output/claim_register.md
paper_output/reference_materials/source_index.md
an existing draft or user-supplied list of claims/sources

Read ../research-architect/references/citation-support-bank.md. Use ../research-architect/templates/citation_support_bank.csv as the column contract and write paper_output/citation_support_bank.md as a Markdown table.

Output and verification

Create paper_output/citation_support_bank.md. Link each source to the exact supported claim IDs or claim sentence, stable identifier, source locator, support boundary, verification status, and notes. Default to 30 candidates only when that is useful; prioritize verified relevance over count.

Create paper_output/citation_support_bank.md.metadata.json using ../research-architect/schemas/v1/citation_support_bank.schema.json; its Supported Claim IDs must resolve to the claim register.

Use verified, partial, needs_user_file, or reject status. Never invent a bibliography entry or claim support. A source that cannot be accessed remains needs_user_file, not assumed supportive.

Standalone and degradation path

Accept an existing draft, a section, a claim list, or a small set of sources without the full workflow trail. Extract candidate claims from the supplied text, mark the bank provisional when the spine/claim register is absent, and identify the missing upstream artifact as an intake debt. This branch can support revision, but it does not substitute for evidence readiness before new prose drafting.

For guided depth, cover only the draft's highest-risk or highest-value claims. standard and deep add broader section coverage, source locators, and support-boundary review.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
