Zotero Library Mcp

Wraps the Zotero Web API so Claude can manage your reference library through natural language. You get tools for adding papers by DOI or arXiv ID, books by ISBN, plus full CRUD on collections, tags, and annotations. The crossref and Open Library lookups happen server-side, so metadata gets normalized before hitting Zotero. Includes fulltext extraction from PDFs, BibTeX export, and the ability to create highlights with automatic duplicate detection. Supports both Zotero's native storage and WebDAV backends. Reach for this when you're doing literature review or research work and want Claude to handle the mechanical parts of bibliography management while you focus on reading and synthesis.
