Zotero Management

jxtse/zotero-management

> Manages a Zotero academic reference library through both the local API using a structured collection hierarchy (Inbox / Active Projects / Background / Reading Queue / Archive / Meta) plus project, status, priority, and type tags. Handles adding papers with full metadata, deduplication, attaching provenance notes, moving items between collections, updating tags after reading, listing the prioritized reading queue, and setting up the literature scaffold for a new project. Use when the user asks to add / save / file / organize a paper in Zotero, check / list / clean up the reading queue, move papers between collections, tag papers for a project, query their library ("what do I have on X?"), or set up Zotero for a new research project.
