What Citation Anchoring does

Citation Anchoring checks that citation keys stay in the same ### subsection after polishing. Use it to catch drift that breaks claim-to-evidence alignment.

Citation Anchoring is cataloged under Quality on DirSkills. Citation Anchoring comes from a repository tagged claude, claude-code, codex, gpt and pipeline.

Documentation

README

Citation Anchoring (regression)

Purpose: prevent a common failure mode: polishing rewrites text and accidentally moves citation markers into a different ### subsection, breaking claim→evidence alignment.

Inputs

  • output/DRAFT.md
  • output/citation_anchors.prepolish.jsonl (baseline; created by draft-polisher on first run)

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.

Agent Survey Corpus

Agent Survey Corpus downloads open-access arXiv survey PDFs about agentic systems and extracts text for local reference. Use it to study how real surveys organize sections, subsections, and evidence-backed comparisons.

Anchor Sheet

Anchor Sheet extracts subsection-specific evidence hooks from draft packs, focusing on numbers, benchmarks, metrics, and limitations. Use it when you want sections to be grounded in cited facts instead of generic summaries.

Appendix Table Writer

Appendix Table Writer curates reader-facing survey tables for paper appendices using only in-scope evidence and existing citation keys. Use it when you have evidence packs, anchor sheets, and citations and need publishable tables instead of internal logs.

ArXiv Search

ArXiv Search retrieves paper metadata from arXiv keyword queries and writes normalized results to JSONL. Use it to build an initial paper set for ranking, taxonomy, or citation workflows, or to import and enrich offline exports.

Argument Selfloop

Argument Selfloop builds a final machine-readable snapshot from current H3 sections, refreshes section hashes, and checks consistency before merge. Use it after section edits when you need an updated argument ledger and manifest.

Artifact Contract Auditor

Artifact Contract Auditor checks whether completed Units and the locked Pipeline have all required output files present, then writes output/CONTRACT_REPORT.md. Use it for mid-run coverage snapshots or final delivery completeness, not provenance checks.
