Verify a BibTeX file for hallucinated or fabricated references by cross-checking every entry against CrossRef, arXiv, and DBLP. Reports each reference as verified, suspect, or not found, with field-level mismatch details (title, authors, year, DOI). Use when the user wants to check a .bib file for fake citations, validate references in a paper, or audit bibliography entries for accuracy.

Check every entry in a .bib file against real academic databases using the
OpenJudge PaperReviewPipeline in BibTeX-only mode:

Each reference entry is assigned one of three statuses:
| Status | Meaning |
|---|---|
verified | Found in CrossRef / arXiv / DBLP with matching fields |
suspect | Title or authors do not match any real paper — likely hallucinated or mis-cited |
not_found | No match in any database — treat as fabricated |
Field-level details are shown for suspect entries:
title_match — whether the title matches a real paperauthor_match — whether the author list matchesyear_match — whether the publication year is correctdoi_match — whether the DOI resolves to the right papername: bib-verify description: > Verify a BibTeX file for hallucinated or fabricated references by cross-checking every entry against CrossRef, arXiv, and DBLP.

Install targets
Codex install prompt
Install the "bib-verify" agent skill from https://github.com/agentscope-ai/OpenJudge/tree/main/skills/bib-verify. Read its SKILL.md or equivalent instructions first, install only the files needed for this workspace, and summarize any required setup before using it. Skill purpose: Verify a BibTeX file for hallucinated or fabricated references by cross-checking every entry against CrossRef, arXiv, and DBLP. Reports each reference as verified, suspect, or not found, with field-level mismatch details (title, authors, year, DOI). Use when the user wants to check a .bib file for fake citations, validate references in a paper, or audit bibliography entries for accuracy. After the install attempt, report the result to https://www.openagentskill.com/api/agent/outcome with POST JSON {"event_id":"install_<unique-id>","skill_slug":"agentscope-ai-bib-verify","task":"Install bib-verify","agent":"codex","outcome":"success","install_used":true}. Replace event_id with a unique value and outcome with success or failed. Report success only after the skill is installed and a minimal verification passes. Recorded instruction path: skills/bib-verify/SKILL.md. Recorded revision: 2151def3553e5521ff8b3e2fea837561c57255f9. Confirm the source matches these instructions.
