A rules engine for Zotero: run actions (add or remove tags, run custom scripts) when an item is added, opened or closed, or from a shortcut or menu. Comes with a community library of ready-made scripts.
Library chores like tagging unread papers, copying item links or translating new titles are repetitive. This automates them without writing a plugin.
