Citations, References, Cited-By

Citation lookup and reference list for a paper. Given a DOI, arXiv id, OpenAlex id, or PMID, returns its references (the works it cites) and its cited-by list (recent works that cite it), plus full metadata and citation count — for bibliography building and citation lookup. Keyless via OpenAlex and Semantic Scholar.

The wallet the 402 directs payment to. Its whole payment record — every payer, every chain — is on the merchant page.

Provider

The payTo wallet does not resolve to a registered ERC-8004 agent. That is not a verdict on the service — most of the catalog is unregistered.

Live 402 challenge

Captured by the enrichment pass, not read just now. Prices can change — always read the 402 the endpoint answers with.

Hand this page to an agent

Copy the prompt and paste it into Claude, an MCP client or your own agent — it will vet this service and call it over the free read API. No key, no account.

GET api.roundhouseai.io/v0/endpoints

This endpoint's own trailing-30-day call count, as published by the upstream catalog and snapshotted daily. 30 snapshots so far. Verified volume counts only settlements with an on-chain EIP-3009 marker.

Show the prompt
Using Roundhouse, look up the x402 service Citations, References, Cited-By and tell me whether it is
worth paying: what a call costs, whether the endpoint answered when last probed, and what
its payment record actually shows.

curl -s 'https://api.roundhouseai.io/v0/endpoints?q=Citations%2C%20References%2C%20Cited-By'
curl -s 'https://api.roundhouseai.io/v0/merchants/<the payTo wallet returned above>'

Then call it: read the price from the live 402 at https://api.kadec0.xyz/v1/paper-details, never from
a cached figure, and pay with an x402 client.

The /v0 API needs an API key (`authorization: Bearer rh_live_…`) on everything except
/v0/unified* and /v0/endpoints. Mint a personal key for $0.01 at GET https://api.roundhouseai.io/v0/test/x402,
or use an organization key from https://roundhouseai.io/dashboard/team.
