CI Citation And Style

Category: Engineering  ·  Sub-category: engineering-misc  ·  Last updated:
Use to format a Critical Inquiry (CI) essay's references and figures to journal standard — Chicago Manual of Style (17th ed.) footnotes numbered consecutively, no works-cited list, with all bibliographical information carried in the notes (and counted toward the word limit), plus images supplied as separate 300 ppi JPEG/TIFF with author-secured permissions. Formats the apparatus; it does not write the argument.

From the source SKILL.md

CI's scholarly apparatus is footnotes, not author-date. Footnote style roughly follows The Chicago Manual of Style, 17th edition; notes are numbered consecutively through the manuscript; there is no separate list of works cited — full bibliographical information lives in the notes. And because the word limit counts all of that, the apparatus is part of the writing problem, not an afterthought. Verify the current edition and wording on the official page.

What this skill does

CI Citation And Style is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the engineering-misc sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/ci-citation-and-style/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
