thurlow-researchzotero-slr-dedup-archived
Documents the retired supersede-based Zotero deduplication workflow and its remaining library artifacts.
thurlow-researchsemantic-scholar
Search the Semantic Scholar graph and snowball citations for literature reviews.
thurlow-researchopenalex
Query the OpenAlex catalog to enrich bibliographic metadata, recover abstracts, and traverse citations.
thurlow-researchzotero
Query and retrieve items, collections, and citations from Zotero libraries via the Web API.
thurlow-researcharxiv
Query the arXiv API and build Zotero create-items plans for preprint imports.
thurlow-researchzotero-pdf-to-text
Convert Zotero PDF attachments into TXT attachments for downstream AI text processing.
thurlow-researchzotero-merge-prep
Consolidates duplicate Zotero records by unioning metadata and normalizing item types before merging.
Frequently Asked Questions About Thurlow Research
FAQPage SchemaWhat tasks can I accomplish with Thurlow Research's skills?▼
You can run systematic literature reviews end-to-end: search Semantic Scholar and arXiv, snowball citations forward and backward, backfill missing abstracts and metadata from OpenAlex, query and export a Zotero library, deduplicate records losslessly, and convert PDF attachments to TXT for full-text analysis.
Who are these skills designed for?▼
Academic researchers and doctoral students conducting systematic literature reviews, particularly those managing Zotero libraries. They were built for Purdue doctoral research on governance of AI-generated code, but apply to any SLR requiring citation chasing, deduplication, and full-text screening.
How do the skills work together in practice?▼
arXiv runs query-only searches and hands a create-items plan to the zotero skill, which writes to the library. Semantic Scholar and OpenAlex enrich records and traverse citations, zotero-merge-prep consolidates duplicates before merging, and zotero-pdf-to-text generates TXT attachments for downstream reading.
Do these skills require API keys or paid access?▼
OpenAlex requires no API key and caches results locally. Semantic Scholar's citation graph requires a key. The zotero skill uses the Zotero Web API with your library credentials. arXiv querying is open. No licensing fees are indicated in the manifest.
What are the prerequisites and dependencies?▼
A Zotero personal or group library (optionally synced to local ~/Zotero/storage), pdftotext for PDF conversion, and a Semantic Scholar API key for citation chasing. The archived zotero-slr-dedup skill must not be executed; use zotero-merge-prep for all duplicate resolution.
