Acquire Sources | Agent Skills Atlas

About this skill

Use AFTER literature-review and BEFORE ingest-source to obtain the actual PDFs for the A+B graded sources. Auto-downloads Open-Access PDFs into the shared library ( /pdf/ .pdf — the bibkey IS the filename) and writes a manual-download worklist (input/bibliography/acquisition-todo.md) for everything paywalled or bot-blocked, so the user can fetch originals via university VPN. Re-run to reconcile manually-downloaded files. Triggers on "acquire the sources", "download the literature", "get the PDFs", "Quellen beschaffen", "lade die Literatur herunter". NOT a search skill (that is literature-review), NOT an ingest skill (that is ingest-source).
