reference-searchlisted

Search and curate academic references for a topic, claim, section, baseline, method, evaluation need, or report section using domain-aware routing across InspireHEP, OpenAlex, and Semantic Scholar, with markdown-ready summaries and optional save paths. Use when the user asks for papers, references, citations, related work, supporting literature, survey papers, background sources, baseline citations, evidence to support a report or research claim, or wants section-by-section citation help while drafting `report.md`.

# Reference Search Use this skill to find and curate literature for research writing, report support, method comparison, or quick topic familiarization. It is especially useful as a companion to `research-report` when a report section needs external literature support beyond local experiment artifacts. ## Sources and routing The skill queries three sources via a single CLI: | Source | Best for | |--------------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------| | **InspireHEP** | HEP / nuclear / gr-qc / cosmology-overlap papers. Highest precision. | | **OpenAlex** | All other domains, with precision filters (title+abstract scope, topics).| | **Semantic Scholar** | Supplementary; has TLDR summaries useful for screening. | **Default routing (`--source auto`)**: - Domain is inferred from the query (or set explicitly with `--domain`). - HEP family domain → InspireHEP first; if it returns less than half the requested limit, OpenAlex is queried to fill the gap. - Non-HEP domain → OpenAlex first; falls back to Semantic Scholar if results are sparse. Override with `--source inspire|openalex|semscholar|all`. ## Inputs to confirm Ask only for what is missing: - search target: topic, claim, section goal, or method name - desired use mode: `background`, `survey`, `method`, `baseline`, `evaluation`, or `claim-support` - if this is for a report, w
