paperecho-zotero-desktop

paperecho-zotero-desktop is a skill for Codex from Chip-G0202/PaperEcho. It costs 59 tokens per session (1,330 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of instructions for running and changing PaperEcho's desktop-only Zotero workflow. Zotero is a reference manager used to collect and organize academic papers.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to run or modify PaperEcho's Zotero Desktop process, check readiness, process literature in batches, route collections, and validate metadata updates.
Why use it?
It keeps production runs, configuration checks, recovery, batching, and metadata updates on the intended desktop path instead of mixing them with unrelated execution modes.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

paperecho-zotero-desktop scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 12d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/run.mjs), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

PaperEcho - Zotero Desktop

Use this skill for the repository's desktop-only Zotero literature review path. Keep work narrow: prefer Stage2-only benchmark and targeted tests, and run a full workflow only for final end-to-end acceptance.

Execution Intent Routing

  • Production intent such as “运行”, “跑一次”, “完整流程”, “文献追踪”, “检查配置并启动”, or “配置完成,继续” must use only node skills/paperecho-zotero-desktop/scripts/run.mjs. Pass --config config/paperecho.config.json when using unified configuration. With sufficient parameters, invoke --run; when only safe configuration inspection is possible, invoke --check.
  • Development intent such as modifying, fixing, refactoring, auditing code, or updating tests must not invoke the production launcher. Use mocks and targeted validation.
  • Explanation intent must only explain or invoke --check; never invoke --run.
  • A reply of “继续” reruns the same launcher with the same --config, reloads the file, and performs a fresh preflight. Inspect only common plus desktop; do not reuse readiness, wait in the background, switch to Web/Local, or ask the user to paste secrets into chat.
  • Loading this Skill alone causes no production side effect. A production run modifies runtime data but must not modify code or create a Git commit.

Read the shared execution contract before invoking the launcher. It defines profiles, preflight, blocked recovery, current-run validation, exit codes, and secret handling; this Skill fixes the mode to Desktop and must not choose another launcher.

The launcher-fixed Desktop mode must agree with an explicit config mode or unique enabled section; a Web/Local selection is a blocking conflict. Missing output is grouped into common and desktop only. Use the shared configuration guide rather than maintaining a second field table here.

Architecture Boundary

  • The workflow remains shared Stage0-Stage5 orchestration; Desktop differs only at the Zotero backend/strategy boundary.
  • For Desktop changes, inspect first: workflow/tools/lib/zotero_cli_backend.mjs, workflow/tools/lib/zotero_cli_executor.mjs, workflow/tools/lib/zotero_desktop_launcher.mjs, Desktop benchmark/tests, and this skill.
  • Only inspect shared Stage2/Stage3 or shared validation when changing business semantics such as source/grade routing, root 文献池, shortTitle, run marker, cleanup, or local/live index.
  • Do not add Desktop-specific stage0-4 copies. Do not add Web API rate-limit or HTTP behavior to Desktop code.
  • For Web API work use paperecho-zotero-web; for standalone filesystem work use paperecho-local.
  • For shared or cross-path behavior, first use paperecho-workflow and load its relevant reference.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
