Test access to the configured Zotero Local API from the current environment.

Search Zotero items and resolve local PDF attachment paths.

Find the best Zotero item by exact or near-exact title/DOI.

Show one Zotero item as readable metadata, complete JSON, or a Better BibTeX export. Markdown remains the default and includes local PDF paths.

List child attachments/notes for one Zotero parent item key.

Resolve the Better BibTeX citation key for one exact Zotero item key. Uses the running Better BibTeX plugin first, then its stored Zotero citationKey/Extra field when available.

List Zotero collections with full nested paths, keys, and direct item/subcollection counts.

Resolve one exact Zotero collection key, globally unique name, or full path. Fails closed on missing, duplicate, deleted, or malformed collections. Similar candidates are suggestions only and are never selected automatically.

Show every Zotero collection containing an item. Child attachment/note keys are resolved to their top-level parent item.

List items assigned to an exact Zotero collection key or collection reference, optionally including nested subcollections with duplicate items removed.

Read-only check for official Zotero Web API credentials, expected user ID, personal-library write permission, and file-write permission. Performs no write.

Read-only preflight for up to 50 papers. Exact DOI, PMID, PMCID, and arXiv IDs may match existing items. A title-only match is always ambiguous. Reports create, collection-union, unchanged, manual, invalid, or ambiguous actions. Never touches PDFs.

Apply a preflighted batch of up to 50 papers through the official Zotero Web API. Rescans the local library, performs fail-closed cloud exact-ID checks before creation, resolves DOI/PMID/arXiv metadata, and versions collection unions for existing items. Never removes memberships, merges items, edits existing metadata, or creates/downloads/uploads PDF attachments. Zotero desktop sync makes cloud writes visible locally. Requires confirm=true.
