trace-citations
Trace the citation neighborhood around one focal paper into foundations, descendants, bridges, weak edges, and optional second-hop links

Review before you install
A skill is a set of instructions and scripts your agent will follow, and it can run code on your machine. Read the SKILL.md and any scripts first — this listing is not a security review.
