Changes things 3Claude Code: ask
  • citation_reportVerify a bibliography.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Verify a bibliography. For every reference: exists, resolves, retracted/corrected/flagged, title/author/year match against the registered record, and a rule-derived fabrication risk — as a signed (Ed25519, RFC 8785 canonical JSON), byte-reproducible JSON report. Input: structured references or BibTeX. No LLM; every claim carries its source and retrieval time. Up to 50 references. Paid: $1.00 USDC per successful call via x402 (eip155:8453). An unpaid call returns the payment requirements (isError). Results carry settled / transaction / network / payer plus the signed report. Use this to check references you already have; to find papers for a question or claim, use evidence_pack_preview / evidence_pack instead.

    Description, as the server wrote it
    Verify a bibliography. For every reference: exists, resolves, retracted/corrected/flagged, title/author/year match against the registered record, and a rule-derived fabrication risk — as a signed (Ed25519, RFC 8785 canonical JSON), byte-reproducible JSON report. Input: structured references or BibTeX. No LLM; every claim carries its source and retrieval time. Up to 75 references. Paid: $3.00 USDC per successful call via x402 (eip155:8453). An unpaid call returns the payment requirements (isError). Results carry settled / transaction / network / payer plus the signed report. Use this to check references you already have; to find papers for a question or claim, use evidence_pack_preview / evidence_pack instead. NOTE: $3.00 is above the @x402/core client's default spend cap (maxAmountPerPayment $1.00); raise it (client.setSpendControls) before calling, or the client refuses without sending anything.
  • citation_report_receiptRe-fetch a paid report you already bought, by its request_id, within the cache TTL.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Re-fetch a paid report you already bought, by its request_id, within the cache TTL. Free; no payment; the same signed report (request_id re-attached, unsigned, as on the paid result). Over the hosted endpoint GET /v1/citation-report/receipts/<request_id> serves the same bytes; over a local stdio run only that process can. Not found after the TTL, for previews, or for reports served by another process.

  • citation_report_previewFree preview.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "citation_report_preview" says "preview": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Free preview. Verify a bibliography. For every reference: exists, resolves, retracted/corrected/flagged, title/author/year match against the registered record, and a rule-derived fabrication risk — as a signed (Ed25519, RFC 8785 canonical JSON), byte-reproducible JSON report. Input: structured references or BibTeX. No LLM; every claim carries its source and retrieval time. Checks only the first 3 references; unsigned; no payment. Use this to check references you already have; to find papers for a question or claim, use evidence_pack_preview / evidence_pack instead.
  • evidence_packFind 3-10 scholarly candidates for a question or topic.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The description's first verb is "find": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Find 3-10 scholarly candidates for a question or topic. Returns DOI/OpenAlex IDs, authors, year, venue, source URLs, citation context, open-access location, and known retraction/correction warnings. JSON only. Does not claim that a paper proves a statement. Paid: $0.03 USDC per successful call via x402 (eip155:8453). An unpaid call returns the payment requirements (isError). Results carry settled / transaction / network / payer. Use this when the free evidence_pack_preview (at most 3 candidates) is not enough; to check references you already have, use citation_report instead.
  • evidence_pack_previewFree triage for a question or topic: returns at most 3 scholarly candidates with DOI/OpenAlex IDs, authors, year, venue, source URLs, citation context, open-access location and kno…No findings

    • The name "evidence_pack_preview" says "preview": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Free triage for a question or topic: returns at most 3 scholarly candidates with DOI/OpenAlex IDs, authors, year, venue, source URLs, citation context, open-access location and known retraction/correction warnings. JSON only; no payment. Does not claim that a paper proves a statement. For up to 10 candidates use evidence_pack; to check references you already have use citation_report_preview.

This is not a safety rating, and no finding is not a safety guarantee. The groups and findings come from fixed checks of the tool definitions the server returned on the date shown, not from its code or what it does when called. How the checks work.
