refcheck

refcheck is an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that enables AI assistants to verify academic citations against real publication databases such as Crossref, Semantic Scholar, and arXiv. It provides tools for checking citation validity, searching for real papers on a topic, and exporting accurate BibTeX entries, thus preventing hallucinated or fabricated citations in academic writing. This solution is built for anyone who uses AI to draft, check, or manage academic references, including researchers, students, and anyone involved in scholarly writing or grant proposals.
