Skills

Skill	Description	Trigger phrases
style-authoring	Author and validate Citum YAML citation styles	"create a style", "author a style", "write a citation style", "edit this style"

Requirements

The style-authoring skill has two modes:

• In-repo (you have a local citum-core checkout): reads Rust type definitions directly as the authoritative source, then validates with citum render.
• External: uses the published JSON Schema at https://docs.citum.org/schemas/style.json, which embeds doc comments from the Rust source.

Citum CLI

Full validation requires the citum CLI. Publishing to crates.io is coming soon. In the meantime, install from source:

cargo install --git https://github.com/citum/citum-core citum-cli

Contributor skills

Skills for working on citum-core itself (style-evolve, migrate-research, rust-simplify) live in the citum-core repo under .skills/. Install them locally with:

./scripts/install-skills.sh
