citesure 0.5.57: one pre-submit gate for citation integrity

LLM-written bibliographies fail in boring, predictable ways: placeholder DOIs, DOIs buried in url=, missing volumes, ALL-CAPS titles, citation keys that break LaTeX.

citesure gate is a single pre-submit command with one exit code: offline floors first, then multi-source verify of what the manuscript actually cites.

# Offline floor (pre-commit / PR)
citesure gate refs.bib --offline --fail-on-warning --min-hard-id-pct 80

# Full pre-arXiv / journal gate
citesure gate refs.bib -m paper.tex --fail-on-warning --min-hard-id-pct 80

It runs soft-lint, hard-ID health floors, promote-ids dry-run, and live verify (Crossref, arXiv, PubMed, Europe PMC, DataCite, OpenAlex, CourtListener, โ€ฆ).

Evidence: 256/256 integrity ยท 169/169 claims ยท 45 domain packs.
