AI Agent for Research Citation Management
Organizes your references without ever seeing your drafts or notes.

The problem
Citation tools often request full document access to 'help' with formatting, but this lets them scan private drafts. Cloud-based services also store your references on their servers, creating privacy risks for unpublished work.
How ConspiracyOS handles it
Your citation agent only sees PDFs in your designated research library. It extracts references and writes formatted citations to a separate output folder, but can't access your drafts, notes, or cloud storage.
What this agent can't do
- Read files outside your /library/pdfs folder
- Modify original PDFs—only extracts metadata
- Connect to online services unless explicitly allowed
- Access your citation manager account credentials
These aren't trust-based restrictions. The operating system enforces them.
What you get
- Auto-generated bibliography in multiple formats
- Duplicate detection across your library
- Key metadata extraction (DOIs, authors, journals)
- No accidental exposure of unpublished drafts
