Citesure tool automates citation integrity checks for academic papers
Citesure is a command-line tool that sets up a paper repository with pre-commit hooks and CI workflows to catch bibliography errors early. It checks for placeholder DOIs, inverted pages, and other common mistakes, and can verify citations against live databases like Crossref and arXiv. The tool includes 55 domain-specific packs for fields from demography to machine learning.
