Audit paper notes for missing citations
obsidian_paper_auditRead-onlyIdempotent
Verify Obsidian notes tagged #paper have a citable identifier in frontmatter. Flag notes with identifiers in body but missing from frontmatter, and propose patches.
Instructions
For each note tagged #paper (configurable), verify frontmatter has at least one citable identifier (arxiv / doi / url / isbn). Also flag notes whose body contains an arxiv ID (e.g. arxiv:2401.12345) or DOI but doesn't carry the same identifier in frontmatter — common after quick-capture from a chat. Returns each flagged note with what was found in body and a proposed frontmatter patch the agent can apply via validate_note_proposal + create_note/append_to_note. Read-only.
