# Zotero MCP Connector A Model Control Protocol (MCP) connector for integrating your local Zotero with Claude. This enables direct read access to your local Zotero library through Claude's Desktop interface. It depends on the ability to access a local web-api in Zotero 7. This was inspired by a repository using Node.js and the web api: [mcp-zotero](https://github.com/kaliaboi/mcp-zotero). This builds on the shoulders of the fantastic [pyzotero](https://github.com/urschrei/pyzotero) library. ## Installation Information about Claude Desktop interacting with MCPs can be found [here](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/quickstart/user). 1. Use `uv`. Installation instructions can be found [here](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/getting-started/installation/). 2. Checkout the git project to local space and activate the virtual environment inside: ```bash git clone https://github.com/gyger/mcp-pyzotero.git cd mcp-pyzotero uv sync ``` 3. Enable the local API in Zotero 7:  4. Add the server to your local Claude installation: ```bash uv run mcp install zotero.py ``` ## Configuration The connector is configured to work with local Zotero installations and currently only `user` libraries are supported. By default it uses the userid `0`, but you can also set the environment variable `ZOTERO_USER_ID` if needed: ```bash uv run mcp install zotero.py -v ZOTERO_USER_ID=0 ``` ## Available Functions The connector provides the following functions: - `get_collections()`: List all collections in your Zotero library - `get_collection_items(collection_key)`: Get all items in a specific collection - `get_item_details(item_key)`: Get detailed information about a specific paper, including abstract - `search_library(query)`: Search your entire Zotero library - `get_recent(limit=10)`: Get recently added papers to your library This functionality should be extended in the future. ## Requirements - Python 3.10+ - Local Zotero installation - Claude Desktop ## Contributing Contributions are welcome!
