zotero
Control a local Zotero library via the `zot` CLI (read API + the zotero-agent bridge write endpoint): search, read, create, edit, tag, organize into collections, delete, export, and run arbitrary Zotero JS. Use whenever the user wants to query or modify their library, bulk-edit references, fields or tags, manage tags or collections, find items missing metadata (no abstract/date/DOI), get library stats, export citations or format bibliographies, add items by DOI/ISBN/arXiv, find and merge duplicates, or create notes on items. Also for PDFs: read or ask questions about an item's PDF, summarize it at multiple levels (whole/chapter/section), read its highlights/annotations, generate a table of contents / bookmarks / outline for Zotero's reader, and prepare scans — split two-up pages and OCR them to make them searchable. Also to see where disk space goes or reclaim it: shrink oversized PDFs, drop orphan attachments and page snapshots. Requires the zotero-agent bridge plugin installed and Zotero running.
bib-search-citation
Search and cite from local BibTeX/BibLaTeX .bib libraries, including Zotero exports. Use to find, filter, preview, export, or generate LaTeX/Typst citation snippets by topic, author, year, venue, DOI, arXiv ID, keywords, abstract, fields, recency, or claim support. Do not use for manuscript writing or polishing.
zotero
This skill should be used when working with a Zotero library — summarizing or reading attached PDFs, organizing items into collections, tagging, adding notes, linking related items, or batch-processing references. Trigger on "Zotero", "my library", "references", "organize my papers/notes", "summarize these PDFs" in a research-library context. Covers the local read API, pyzotero for writes, and direct storage reads for bulk PDF work.
