Stars ★ 25 Downloads (30d) 1,886 Category Tools & Capabilities Added 2026-08-15 npm dsh-zotero-local

Zotero library tools via the local API (no API key, Zotero 7+): search items and collections, read metadata, abstracts and PDF full text (on-the-fly parsing when the cache misses), download attachments, and manage notes; API endpoint, target library and limits are configurable.

Install

# from npm (prebuilt)

dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-zotero-local

# from GitHub (first run asks for allowBuilds approval — follow the hint, retry)

dsh plugin --profile web add github:Hongcheng-LI/dsh-zotero

Any plugin you install runs third-party code with your own permissions — it can read your files, use your credentials, and reach the network, and tool approvals don’t sandbox it. GitHub-sourced plugins also run build scripts at install time — pnpm blocks those until you allow them, so an install can stop with ERR_PNPM_GIT_DEP_PREPARE_NOT_ALLOWED or ERR_PNPM_IGNORED_BUILDS; dsh prints the exact key to add under allowBuilds in your profile’s pnpm-workspace.yaml, and the install works on the next run. Allowing a build is a trust decision: only install sources you trust, and pin a commit (github:owner/repo#sha).

DeepSeek Harness 的 Zotero 工具插件:让 agent 直接检索你的 Zotero 文献库、阅读条目元数据与摘要、列出分类和 PDF 附件、读 PDF 全文、写回读书笔记与 PDF 高亮。通过 Zotero 本地 API(7 代及以上可用,实测 9.x / 10.0.7;http://127.0.0.1:23119)访问:读取不需要任何密钥,写入需要一次性本地授权(见「写入授权」),纯 Node 实现,零核心改动。

兼容版本:按 DSH 运行时 0.2.0-rc.x(桌面版 44.x 内核)的插件规范更新——schemastery Config 配置校验与设置表单、locale/ 插件管理器元信息、预构建 lib/ 直装、dsh.plugin.json 已按新规范移除(新运行时不读取该文件)。插件本体不声明任何 @deepseek-ai/dsh-* peer,能通过所有版本的兼容门禁;并用真实 @deepseek-ai/dsh-tools 注册表做契约测试(见「开发」)。

前置条件

  1. 本机安装并运行 Zotero 7 及以上(本地 API 自 7 代引入;本项目在 Zotero 9.0.6 / Windows 上实测通过);
  2. 打开 Zotero:设置 → 高级 → 通用 → 勾选「允许本机上的其他应用程序与 Zotero 通信」。

兼容性说明:读取类工具(检索/条目/全文/附件路径/笔记读取/批注读取)在 Zotero 9 / 10.0.7 上全部实测通过。写入(笔记 create/append/update/delete、PDF 高亮)在 Zotero 7+ 上可用,但必须先完成一次「本地 API 授权」:早期判断「本地 API 只读」是不准确的,实际只是写请求缺 Zotero-Server-ID 与 Zotero-API-Key 两个头,详见下节。

写入授权(Zotero 7+ / 9 / 10)

Zotero 本地 API 的 GET 读取无认证;POST / PATCH / PUT / DELETE 写请求必须同时带:

  1. Zotero-Server-ID:每个响应头都会返回,插件自动缓存并在写请求里回传(缺失 → 428,不匹配 → 412);
  2. Zotero-API-Key:通过 POST /api/local/authorize 获取。调用 zotero_authorize 工具后,Zotero 桌面端会弹出「本地 API 授权」窗口:
    • 点 「始终允许 / Always Allow」 → 持久密钥写入 <profile>/localAPIKeys.json,插件以后自动读取,一劳永逸;
    • 点 「允许 / Allow」 → 一次性密钥,首次成功写入后即被消费,下次写会返回 401,需重新授权。

也可以把密钥直接填进插件配置 localApiKey(或 cordis.patch.yml)。授权弹窗需要人工点击,zotero_authorize 会等待最多 120 秒(authorizeTimeoutMs 可调)。

写回能力:

  • zotero_note:create / append / update / delete 子笔记(POST /items、PATCH /items/<key>、DELETE /items/<key>);
  • zotero_highlight:在某个 PDF 附件下新建高亮批注(annotation item,POST /items),带页码、印刷页码标签、颜色、选中文字与坐标。
  • zotero_annotation_comment:修改已有 PDF 高亮的批注评论(annotationComment);传空字符串可清空评论。

工具一览

工具 作用
zotero_collections 列出文献库的所有分类(collectionKey + 条目数),用于限定检索范围
zotero_search 按关键词检索文献库(标题/作者/年份),支持条目类型、分类、标签、年份区间(sinceYear/beforeYear)、排序、分页;mode 控制返回粒度省 token
zotero_recent 列出最近添加的条目("我刚导入的文献"场景)
zotero_item 按 key 读取条目详情:作者、期刊、DOI、摘要、标签、附件列表
zotero_fulltext 读条目全文纯文本:优先读 Zotero 全文缓存(.zotero-ft-cache,零下载),无缓存时现场解析本地 PDF(pdfjs-dist,约 0.3s)并写缓存;仅远程链接附件才下载到工作区
zotero_attachment_path 返回附件在 storage 的原始绝对路径,让 read 工具零拷贝直读
zotero_download 把条目的 PDF 附件下载到会话工作区(默认),供模型用 read 工具阅读
zotero_notes 列出某条目的子笔记,或全库按关键词搜笔记正文
zotero_note 笔记写入:create 新增 / append 追加 / update 更新 / delete 删除。需先完成写入授权
zotero_authorize 触发 Zotero「本地 API 授权」弹窗获取写密钥;已有持久 key 时直接报告、不重复弹窗
zotero_highlight 把 PDF 高亮(annotation item)写回指定附件:选中文字、页码、印刷页码标签、颜色、坐标
zotero_annotation_comment 修改已有 PDF 高亮的批注评论(annotationComment),空字符串清空
zotero_export 把条目导出为引用格式:BibTeX / RIS / CSL JSON(逐 key 抓取后拼接,最多 25 条/次),可直接贴进 .bib/.ris 或引用管理器
zotero_annotations 读取条目附件上的 PDF 批注(高亮、批注笔记),带 PDF 页码、文中页码标签、引文和你的评论;自动翻页拉全(实测有附件挂 1000+ 条批注)
zotero_browse 列出库内用户标签(可喂给 zotero_search 的 tag 参数)和保存的智能搜索
zotero_retrieve 段落级检索:在条目的全文+笔记+批注里按 query 打分(BM25 风格 tf-idf,中英文分词),返回 Top-K 最相关段落,带页码锚点,适合精确引用和"这篇哪里说了 X"
zotero_digest 一次打包条目简报:完整元数据 + 摘要 + BibTeX 引用 + 附件列表 + 与 query 最相关的段落(缺省用标题词),"总结这篇论文"的首选入口

示例对话:

在我的 Zotero 里搜一下 transformer 相关的论文,挑 2020 年以后的,把第一篇的全文读一遍,给我写个摘要存进笔记。

安装

方式一:GUI 插件管理器(桌面版 44.x)——设置 → 插件 → 安装,填入仓库地址:

github:Hongcheng-LI/dsh-zotero

方式二:CLI(web / desktop profile 均可):

dsh plugin add github:Hongcheng-LI/dsh-zotero           # 当前 profile
dsh plugin --profile web add github:Hongcheng-LI/dsh-zotero

装好后重启 DSH。仓库自带预构建的 lib/,且不声明任何生命周期脚本——pnpm 10 对声明 prepare 的 git 依赖会直接拒装(ERR_PNPM_GIT_DEP_PREPARE_NOT_ALLOWED),本插件零脚本、免白名单直装;插件自带空配置,不会弄崩启动;Zotero 未运行时工具会返回明确的连接提示。

配置(可选)

默认配置即可用(本地库、端口 23119)。插件导出了 schemastery Config schema:

  • GUI:插件管理器 → dsh-zotero → 配置,直接用表单改(中英双语描述);
  • cordis.patch.yml:在你的 profile($DSH_HOME/profiles/<name>/)里覆盖 tool-zotero 行,然后重启:
- id: tool-zotero
  config:
    baseUrl: http://127.0.0.1:23119   # Zotero 本地 API 地址
    library: user                      # user(我的文献库)或 group:<群组ID>
    downloadDir: D:/papers             # 附件下载目录,缺省存到会话工作区
    dataDir: D:/ZoteroData             # Zotero 数据目录(含 profiles.ini),默认自动探测
    storageDir: .../zotero/storage     # 直接指定 storage 目录(zotero_fulltext / attachment_path 用)
    maxAttachmentBytes: 67108864       # 单附件下载上限,默认 64MB
    maxFulltextChars: 80000            # zotero_fulltext 返回的最大字符数,默认 80000
    maxLimit: 50                       # 检索结果条数上限,默认 50
    timeoutMs: 15000                   # 本地 API 超时(毫秒)
    localApiKey: ''                    # 本地 API 写密钥;留空自动读 Zotero「始终允许」保存的持久 key
    authorizeTimeoutMs: 120000         # 等待授权弹窗的超时(毫秒)

非法配置(比如 library: abc)会在加载期被 Config schema 拒绝并明确报错,而不是等到调用才失败。

全文与附件路径:插件通过本地 API /file 端点的 302 重定向拿到附件的真实磁盘路径(自定义数据目录也能自动识别,无需配置),全文优先读 Zotero 自己维护的 .zotero-ft-cache 缓存(与附件同目录)。dataDir/storageDir 配置仅在重定向不可用时作为兜底。

开发

npm install
npm test           # 构建单元测试(离线,不需要 Zotero)
npm run audit      # 运行时审计:清单 / patch / 构建产物 / locale / 兼容门禁
npm run test:smoke # 真实环境冒烟测试:对本机 Zotero 完整跑一遍工具链

运行时契约测试(可选但推荐):test/registry-contract.test.mjs 会用真实的 DSH 工具注册表注册全部 17 个工具,并跑一遍 execute → output schema 校验 → render 管线(mock 的 Zotero 本地 API,离线可跑)。@deepseek-ai/dsh-tools 刻意不出现在 package.json(插件对 DSH 零运行时依赖),想跑契约测试时装一份与目标运行时一致的版本即可,不装则自动跳过:

npm install --no-save @deepseek-ai/dsh-tools@0.2.0-rc.2
npm test

lib/ 是入库的,且没有 prepare 脚本:DSH 的插件安装走 pnpm,pnpm 10 对声明了 prepare 的 git 依赖会硬性拒装(不是静默跳过),所以构建产物必须入库、生命周期脚本必须为空。改动 src/ 后先 npm run build,把刷新后的 lib/ 一起提交。

结构遵循 DSH 插件规范(0.2.0-rc.x):package.json 的 dsh.bundle.patch 声明、cordis.patch.yml 运行时注入行、schemastery Config 配置 schema、locale/ 插件管理器元信息、src/ 源码、lib/ 构建产物。


Zotero tools for DeepSeek Harness: search your library, read item metadata and abstracts, list collections and PDF attachments, read full text, download PDFs into the session workspace, write back child notes and PDF highlights — all through the Zotero local API. Reads need no key; writes need a one-time local authorization (zotero_authorize, choose "Always Allow" in the Zotero dialog).

Compatibility: updated for the DSH 0.2.0-rc.x plugin contract (desktop 44.x core) — schemastery Config (validated config + settings form), locale/ metadata for the plugin manager, prebuilt lib/ shipped in-repo (pnpm 10 blocks dependency build scripts), dsh.plugin.json removed per the current spec. The plugin declares no @deepseek-ai/dsh-* peers, so it passes the version-compatibility gate on every DSH release; a contract test runs every tool through the real @deepseek-ai/dsh-tools registry.

Requires Zotero 7+ (tested on 9.0.6 / Windows) running locally with "Allow other applications on this computer" enabled in Settings → Advanced.

Tool What it does
zotero_collections List library collections with keys and counts
zotero_search Quick-search items; filters by type, collection, tag, year range; sort/pagination; mode controls verbosity
zotero_recent Recently added items
zotero_item Full metadata of one item plus attachment keys
zotero_fulltext Full text as plain text (Zotero fulltext cache first, PDF download fallback)
zotero_attachment_path On-disk path of a stored attachment (zero-copy read)
zotero_download Download an attachment (PDF) to the workspace
zotero_notes List an item's child notes or search notes library-wide
zotero_note Create / append / update / delete child notes (needs write authorization)
zotero_authorize Obtain a local API write key via Zotero's authorization dialog; reports an existing persistent key without re-prompting
zotero_highlight Write a PDF highlight (annotation item) back under an attachment, with text, page, printed page label, color and rects
zotero_annotation_comment Update an existing PDF highlight's annotation comment (annotationComment); empty string clears it
zotero_export Export items as BibTeX / RIS / CSL JSON (keys fetched one by one, up to 25 per call)
zotero_annotations Read PDF annotations on an item's attachments: highlight text, your comments, PDF page numbers and printed page labels (auto-paginates past 100)
zotero_browse List user tags (feed them to zotero_search's tag) and saved searches
zotero_retrieve Passage-level retrieval: rank the item's full text + notes + annotations against a query (tf-idf, mixed Latin/CJK), top-K passages with page anchors
zotero_digest One-shot briefing: metadata + abstract + BibTeX citation + attachments + top query-relevant passages (defaults to title-derived query)

Install: dsh plugin add github:Hongcheng-LI/dsh-zotero (or via the desktop plugin manager), then restart DSH. For write tools, run zotero_authorize once and pick "Always Allow" in Zotero's dialog. Optional config (baseUrl, library, downloadDir, maxAttachmentBytes, maxLimit, timeoutMs, localApiKey, authorizeTimeoutMs, …) is available both as a settings form (schemastery Config) and under the tool-zotero row of your profile's cordis.patch.yml.

Development: npm install && npm test (offline unit tests), npm run audit (runtime audit), npm run test:smoke (live Zotero). Opt-in contract test against the real DSH registry: npm install --no-save @deepseek-ai/dsh-tools@0.2.0-rc.2 && npm test. lib/ is committed on purpose and the package declares no lifecycle scripts — pnpm 10 hard-fails git installs of packages that declare prepare (ERR_PNPM_GIT_DEP_PREPARE_NOT_ALLOWED).
