What it does

Description coming soon. We haven't written a summary yet. The line above is the developer's own description; the developer's README is linked above.

What you'll need

Detected automatically
  • An API key for some featuresWorks without one: Core vocabulary candidate extraction and notes; translation is off by default and the google-free provider needs no key. Needs a key (OpenAI, Google Gemini and Anthropic): Optional translation aids: OpenAI-compatible, Gemini or Claude/Anthropic providers need your own API key.
  • Zotero 9Not working with Zotero 10
