What this server is able to do. For an MCP server this is often the job itself — a terminal server runs commands because that is what it is for. Listed so you know what you are plugging in, not as an accusation.

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: ZOTERO_API_KEY (Zotero API key (writes/sync/groups; optional for local-only reads).), ZOTEUS_LOCAL (Use the Zotero desktop local API: auto | on | off.), ZOTEUS_ALLOW_DELETE (Set to true to enable permanent deletion (off by default).). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

This endpoint answered with an authorization challenge. The server is running, and it signs you in through your browser: there is no API key to paste.
