v0.4.3 - Trademark Compliance
RAG Assistant for Zotero v0.4.3
Name Change & Migration Required
This release includes a name change to comply with Zotero's trademark requirements. The application is now called "RAG Assistant for Zotero" instead of "ZoteroRAG".
Why This Change?
Zotero's trademark guidelines require third-party apps to use the format "for Zotero" rather than starting with "Zotero". We've updated:
- Application display name → "RAG Assistant for Zotero"
- Executable name →
rag-assistant - Package name →
rag-assistant - Repository →
RAG-Assistant-for-Zotero
Migration Steps (One-Time Only)
Your profiles, vector databases, and settings will be preserved if you run these commands before launching the new version:
macOS
# Close the app if running, then rename the data folder:
mv ~/Library/Application\ Support/ZoteroRAG ~/Library/Application\ Support/RAG\ AssistantWindows
# Close the app if running, then rename the data folder:
# Open PowerShell and run:
Rename-Item -Path "$env:APPDATA\ZoteroRAG" -NewName "RAG Assistant"Or using Command Prompt (cmd.exe):
rename "%APPDATA%\ZoteroRAG" "RAG Assistant"Linux (Debian/Ubuntu/AppImage)
# Close the app if running, then rename the config folder:
mv ~/.config/zotero-rag-assistant ~/.config/rag-assistantWhat Happens If I Don't Migrate?
If you skip the migration and launch v0.4.3 directly:
- The app will create a new data folder with the new name
- You'll see empty profiles and need to re-index your library
- Your old data will remain in the old folder (safe to manually migrate later)
