What is Zotero MCP Server?
Zotero MCP Server is a middleware service that integrates with the Zotero literature management tool through the Model Context Protocol (MCP). It allows users to search for content in the Zotero library through natural language queries and obtain detailed note and PDF information.How to use Zotero MCP Server?
Users can interact with the server through MCP clients such as 5ire, send search queries, and obtain results. The server provides two main functions: searching the Zotero library and retrieving specific item content.Applicable scenarios
Suitable for researchers, scholars, and students to quickly find and obtain research materials in the Zotero library, especially in scenarios where a large number of literatures need to be frequently consulted.Main features
Zotero library search
Search for items in the Zotero library through natural language queries, and support setting the limit on the number of returned results.
Item content retrieval
Obtain the complete content of a specific item, including note and PDF information, through the item's unique identification key (key).
5ire client integration
Seamlessly integrate with the 5ire MCP client to provide a friendly chat-style interaction interface.
Advantages
Simplify the Zotero content retrieval process
Support natural language queries
Be compatible with existing MCP clients
Be open source and extensible
Limitations
Require the configuration of the Zotero API key
Currently, testing only supports specific environments
There may be performance limitations when searching large libraries
