# Local Zotero Fallback
|
|
|
|
Use this runbook when the Zotero MCP transport is unavailable but the user still wants a collection-level pass.
|
|
|
|
## Preconditions
|
|
|
|
- A local `zotero-mcp` checkout or installed Python package is available.
|
|
- The local environment can read metadata/fulltext without mutating the Zotero library.
|
|
|
|
## Default fallback sequence
|
|
|
|
1. Confirm that MCP transport is the failing layer, not the collection query itself.
|
|
2. Switch to the local Python-backed path for metadata and fulltext retrieval.
|
|
3. Continue creating or updating canonical paper notes.
|
|
4. Run `verify_paper_notes.py` before closing the batch.
|
|
|
|
## Report explicitly
|
|
|
|
Always state:
|
|
- that MCP transport failed,
|
|
- that the workflow continued through local fallback,
|
|
- what remained unavailable, if anything.
