From dh-refs
Digital humanities citation and reference management — import Zotero/.bib/.ris files, build annotated bibliographies, format citations in Chicago/MLA/APA/Turabian, identify literature gaps. Use when managing sources before writing, or when needing a standalone bibliography. Triggers: bibliography, references, Zotero, .bib file, annotated bibliography, cite, citation format, what am I missing in my reading list.

`dh-refs` handles everything source-related that happens between discovering literature and writing with it:
dh-refs handles everything source-related that happens between discovering literature and writing with it:
.bib, .ris, PDF lists, or free-text reading lists — parse into a normalized corpusdh-write| Mode | Trigger | What Happens |
|---|---|---|
build | /dh-refs or /dh-refs build | Full pipeline: import sources → normalize → deduplicate → output clean corpus |
annotate | /dh-refs annotate | Generate annotated bibliography from existing corpus or pasted sources |
format | /dh-refs format | Format existing references into a specified citation style |
gap-check | /dh-refs gap-check | Identify missing scholarship given RQ and current corpus |
import | /dh-refs import | Import and normalize a Zotero/bib/ris file |
Always start with intake: Read agents/intake_agent.md and execute it.
Route by mode:

Before beginning, load:
../shared/references/intent_clarification_protocol.mdOn completion, produce output containing:
## DH Bibliography Corpus (CSL-JSON)
[JSON array of CSL-formatted citation objects]
## Annotated Bibliography (if annotate mode was run)
[Formatted bibliography with annotation per entry]
## Literature Gap Report (if gap-check was run)
[Gap analysis findings]
These headers are detected by dh-write and dh-pipeline intake agents for auto-import.
dh-refs does not fabricate citations. Any source that cannot be verified from materials the user provides is flagged [UNVERIFIED — user must confirm]. The gap analysis uses the stated research question and existing corpus as inputs — it suggests likely missing categories, not specific fabricated sources.
