By xiaoxuanli-a zotero_agent_reader_plugin 1 GitHub Star
Chat with the open paper — the agent is a local codex CLI scoped to that paper's PDF.
To install, save the .xpi file and drag it onto the Plugins window in Zotero (Tools → Plugins). In Firefox, right-click the download link and choose Save Link As. A plugin has full access to your Zotero and your computer, and the index does not review its code before listing it, so install only plugins from developers you trust. More about installing
