dsh-research-refs

Citations pasted into a chat window are rarely clean: numbering jumps, fields go missing, and the same paper shows up twice. dsh-research-refs replaces that slow, error-prone manual process with a deterministic tool chain. It splits raw text into entries using numbering, blank-line, and type-marker strategies; queries Crossref to fill in volume, issue, pages, journal, and year; removes duplicates by DOI or by title similarity combined with first-author surname; and renders the final list in GB/T 7714-2015, APA, or Vancouver style. One rule is non-negotiable: any field that cannot be verified online is flagged as pending, never invented.

The verification step is fully self-contained. The plugin calls the Crossref API through Node native fetch (always present on the DSH Node 22 engine), so the host needs no web-fetch provider configuration and no provider is registered, eliminating any chance of conflict. Inside a dynamic sandbox where native fetch is unavailable, it falls back to the ctx.web service automatically. Chinese-language references are explicitly marked as not verifiable online and left for the user to confirm rather than assigned a speculative source.

It suits researchers drafting bilingual papers who need to turn a messy bibliography into a submission-ready reference list, as well as DSH agent workflows that process citations in batch. Paste the citation block, and the agent reports progress at every pipeline stage, prompts for candidate selection when Crossref returns multiple close matches, and delivers a clean, traceable list free of fabricated fields.
