Zotero MCP: questions and answers
Is there an official Zotero MCP server?
Research library management currently depends on community MCP servers. mcpheaven lists Zotero so agents can find it by task and reach it through one MCP endpoint.
What can an AI agent do with Zotero?
Search libraries, organize collections, and create citations. Agents find it by describing the task, for example with the search_capabilities tool.
How do I connect Zotero to Claude, Codex or Cursor?
Add mcpheaven once as an MCP server (https://mcpheaven.com/mcp) with an API key, then ask your agent for the task. It calls get_capability with the slug "zotero" for details.
Is the Zotero integration available?
The Zotero integration is planned. Agents can already discover it through mcpheaven's search, and it will become callable once the integration ships.
