Citation Graph Ingest

Category: Science & Research  ·  Sub-category: research-methods  ·  Last updated:
Build a TYPED citation/reference graph over an ingested corpus — not just embeddings. Flat similarity retrieval cannot tell you that document A *overrules* B, *distinguishes* C, or *relies_on* D. This skill extracts every inter-document reference, classifies the edge TYPE with LLM judgment, and writes first-class typed edges via `gbrain link`, so `gbrain graph-query --type` can walk the argument ("everything this brief relies on, minus anything overruled since"). Every cite-heavy corpus is the same shape: law, academic papers, patents, regulatory filings, a book's bibliography.

From the source SKILL.md

This skill writes NO pages. Its only durable writes are typed edges in the native links table via gbrain link (stamped link_source=citation-graph); that is why the frontmatter carries writes_pages: false and no writes_to: list.
