Zotero Obsidian Bridge
This bridges Zotero's paper library into an Obsidian vault with a strict three-tier structure: canonical source notes in Sources/Papers, synthesis in Knowledge, and polished output in Writing. The standout piece is the Evidence Record requirement, which forces you to label claim strength and source type before promoting anything into synthesis notes. That gate exists because abstract-only stubs and web placeholders can't support durable claims in manuscripts or rebuttals. If you're managing academic literature across a team or prepping research for publication, the contract between extraction and promotion will save you from citation decay. If you just want to collect papers casually, the overhead will annoy you.

Zotero Obsidian Bridge
Use this skill when papers live in Zotero and the project KB should receive project-local notes.

Evidence extraction requirement
Core papers and papers with reusable claims should include an evidence record. Abstract-only or placeholder notes may stay in To-Read until there is enough evidence to extract a reusable claim.
