# PapersGPT for Zotero Guide

A skill for using the PapersGPT plugin to integrate AI assistants (ChatGPT, Claude, DeepSeek) directly into the Zotero reference management workflow for paper summarization, question-answering, and research analysis. Based on papersgpt-for-zotero (2K stars), this skill transforms Zotero from a passive reference store into an active research intelligence tool.

## Overview

Researchers accumulate large Zotero libraries but often lack time to deeply read every paper. PapersGPT addresses this by bringing AI analysis capabilities directly into the Zotero interface. Without leaving the reference manager, researchers can generate summaries, ask specific questions about paper content, compare papers, extract key findings, and get AI-assisted insights that accelerate the literature review process.

The plugin supports multiple AI backends, allowing researchers to choose based on quality, cost, and privacy preferences. All interactions happen in context of the selected paper's full text, ensuring responses are grounded in the actual document rather than the model's general knowledge.
