Compile, reconcile, and update the Guidebook bibliography from all active source files. ALWAYS use this skill when asked to: update the bibliography, add new references, reconcile sources from lit review files or BPC entries, rebuild the reference list, or produce a current bibliography draft. Trigger on: "update bibliography", "add references", "reconcile sources", "rebuild reference list", "bibliography out of date", "new sources to add", "missing references", or after any multilingual-research run that logged new sources. Do NOT use citation-verifier for this task — that skill audits existing claims; this skill compiles and reconciles the reference list itself.
