Citation Artifacts

What are these files?

Citation metadata in multiple formats. CITATION.cff is the canonical source used by GitHub’s “Cite this repository”.

  • CFF → validate with cffconvert
  • BibTeX (.bib) for LaTeX/Pandoc
  • RIS (.ris) for Zotero/Mendeley
  • EndNote (.enw) for EndNote

Run make citation to validate the CFF and generate all formats (ephemeral venv).
