Use when references in a .bib file (often from /search-lit) should land in Zotero and Obsidian. Syncs them to the Zotero library, writes Obsidian literature notes and extracts cross-cutting concept notes once enough accumulate. A folder of PDFs is /obsidian-paper-vault.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Literature Sync: Zotero + Obsidian Pipeline Takes the `.bib` output of `/search-lit` (or any user-specified .bib file), synchronizes the references into the Zotero library and Obsidian literature notes, and extracts cross-cutting concept notes once enough literature notes accumulate. ## Prerequisites - **Project owner only.** Collaborators consume the committed `manuscript/_src/refs.bib` snapshot read-only. If the current user is a collaborator (no Zotero access per `SSOT.yaml` `reference_manager.required_for`), abort with instructions to flag `[@NEW:topic]` placeholders in the manuscript and notify the owner. - Zotero desktop 7.x + Better BibTeX plugin, with Better BibTeX "Keep updated" auto-export configured to `<project>/manuscript/_src/refs.bib`. - Zotero MCP server (if not connected, skip Phase 2; auto-export still refreshes once Zotero is reopened). - Obsidian CLI or direct file writing to the vault; vault path from the user's environment (e.g., `$OBSIDIAN_VAULT`). ## Artifact Contract `/lit-sync` is the **sole writer** of `manuscript/_src/refs.bib` (via the Better BibTeX auto-export …

How to install
mdr add aperivue/medsci-skills/lit-sync@sha256:45ba031478d6b5ddThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261002.cef9176, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
