Zotero Obsidian Bridge
Use this skill when papers live in Zotero and the project KB should receive project-local notes.
Default flow:
Zotero -> Sources/Papers -> Knowledge -> Writing -> Maps/literature.canvas
Rules:
- one canonical paper note per paper under
Sources/Papers/
- literature synthesis goes to
Knowledge/
- writing-oriented outputs go to
Writing/
Maps/literature.canvas is the default derived graph artifact
- update
_system/registry.md, 02-Index.md, and today's Daily/ after substantial ingestion
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.
## Evidence Record
Evidence ID:
Source:
Source type: full paper | preprint | dataset | experiment artifact | project note | abstract-only | webpage placeholder
Supports:
Contradicts:
Method / dataset / metric:
Limitation:
Project relevance:
Claim strength: speculative | observed | supported | strong
Use ../research-ideation/references/research-contract.md as the shared contract for Evidence Records and claim strength definitions.
Before synthesis lands in Knowledge/ or Writing/, apply the shared Claim Promotion Gate:
- every promoted claim must point back to an Evidence Record ID,
- source type must be strong enough for the claim,
- abstract-only and webpage-placeholder items cannot support durable claims,
- allowed wording and forbidden stronger wording must be preserved when the claim may later enter a report, manuscript, or rebuttal.
When synthesis lands in Knowledge/, link the supporting paper notes explicitly. Do not promote literature synthesis that cannot point back to source notes.
