> **Windows Users**: If you encounter errors like `[Errno 2] No such file or directory` where the path looks mashed together:
> 1. Use **forward slashes** (`/`) in your paths.
> 2. Point to `main.py` in the root folder, NOT `src/server.py`.
> Example: `D:/Yan2file/zotero-mcp/main.py`

*Note: You might need to use the full path to your python executable if it's in a virtual environment (e.g. `D:/Yan2file/zotero-mcp/.venv/Scripts/python.exe`).*
