What problem does it solve?
This Skill solves the problem of manually managing Zotero libraries when you need repeatable, automated access to reference data, collections, tags, and attachments.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Zotero API v3 automation: Read, search, create, update, and delete Zotero items using a bound library context (user or group).
- Structured reference workflows: Retrieve metadata, manage collections and tags, export citations (BibTeX/CSL-JSON/RIS/etc.), and support pagination for large libraries.
- Attachment handling & full-text: Download attachment binaries, upload PDF attachments (beta), and retrieve or index full-text content for better discovery and search workflows.
Use case: You maintain a local research pipeline that ingests new papers, attaches PDFs to existing records, tags items for downstream review, and exports an up-to-date bibliography for writing.
Quick Start
Use the pyzotero skill to query your Zotero library for items matching machine learning and return the top 20 results as Python objects.
