Fixed

  • Duplicates: a copy with a file no longer loses to a copy without one. If a PDF yielded no readable text, it counted the same as no PDF at all, and the preferred library could win with a copy that has no file. The work then seemed to be missing from the corpus. It now appears under problems, with the hint about text recognition.
  • Duplicates: the copy from the collections you chose for a corpus comes first. Among equally good copies, the dialog before indexing preselects the copy from the corpus, even if another copy has already been read. Runs for one corpus or collection that do not ask choose the same way.

New

  • Index → Duplicates: choose again for a corpus. This opens the selection for all works of a corpus, with its copies preselected. Nothing changes until you apply it.

Changed

  • Index → Last run: a cancelled run now shows the current status of the corpus, with the same numbers as the corpora table, and the button is called Index like there, because it reads what is open now and does not continue the old list.

Install (Windows)

Download Zotivity-Setup-1.2.1.exe below and run it (per user, no admin rights). Check the download against Zotivity-Setup-1.2.1.exe.sha256. The installer is built by GitHub Actions from the source code of this release and is not code-signed yet, so Windows SmartScreen warns ("Unknown publisher"): click More info → Run anyway. If that option is missing (e.g. on managed PCs), right-click the file → Properties → tick Unblock → OK, then start it again.

Then enable Zotero's local API (Zotero → Settings → Advanced) and follow the setup checklist.

Please note

  • Zotivity is vibe-coded: it was written by Claude (Anthropic) in Claude Code and tested in daily use, not reviewed line by line by a human developer.
  • Use it as a tool, not as a replacement for your own scholarly work – read the sources, verify critically and do not submit generated text as your own. See the README section on the risk of deskilling.
  • Zotivity is an independent project, not affiliated with or endorsed by Zotero or the Corporation for Digital Scholarship. Zotero is a registered trademark of the Corporation for Digital Scholarship.
