Wos Export

WoS Export

Export WoS paper records. Two modes: direct Zotero push (preferred) or file export via UI.

Mode A: Push to Zotero (preferred, no UI interaction)

Collect paper metadata (from prior search/detail results) and push to Zotero via the push_to_zotero.py script.

Step 1: Prepare Paper Data

Build a JSON object from data already available in the conversation (from wos-search API results or wos-paper-detail extraction). The script accepts WoS paper fields directly:

{
  "title": "Value co-creation in service logic",
  "authors": "Grönroos, C",
  "source": "MARKETING THEORY",
  "year": 2011,
  "volume": "11",
  "issue": "3",
  "pages": "279-301",
  "doi": "10.1177/1470593111408177",
  "issn": "1470-5931",
  "abstract": "The underpinning logic of...",
  "language": "English",
  "accessionNumber": "WOS:000295471900004",
  "authorKeywords": ["value co-creation", "service logic"],
  "keywordsPlus": ["DOMINANT LOGIC"],
  "citedCount": "992",
  "alldbCited": "1,254",
  "jif": "2.8",
  "jifYear": "2024",
  "jcrQuartile": "Q3",
  "researchAreas": "Business & Economics",
  "wosCategories": "Business",
  "docType": "Article"
}

For multiple papers, wrap in an array or {"items": [...]}.

Step 2: Push via Script

echo '{JSON_DATA}' | python "e:\wos-skills\.claude\skills\wos-export\scripts\push_to_zotero.py"

Or save to temp file first (recommended for large data or Chinese characters):

python "e:\wos-skills\.claude\skills\wos-export\scripts\push_to_zotero.py" /tmp/wos_export.json

Step 3: Report Result

• OK: Saved (session: xxx) → success
• OK: Already saved (session: xxx) → idempotent, no duplicates
• Error: Zotero not running → tell user to start Zotero desktop

The script auto-detects Zotero's currently selected collection. User can change target by selecting a different folder in Zotero before exporting.

To list collections: python push_to_zotero.py --list

Mode B: File Export via UI (fallback)

When Zotero is not available or user specifically wants a file.

Prerequisites

Browser must be on a WoS results page (/summary/...) or full record page (/full-record/...).

Supported Formats

Steps

1. take_snapshot → find Export button (button with haspopup="menu" containing "Export") → click
2. take_snapshot → find format menuitem → click
3. Handle export dialog (record range, content options) → click download button

Notes on UI Export

• Uses 3-4 tool calls: snapshot + click Export + snapshot + click format + dialog
• "Fast 5000" exports up to 5000 records with basic fields
• On full-record page, exports only the current record

Zotero Script Features

• Deterministic session ID: Same papers always produce the same session ID (content hash). Prevents duplicates on retry (409 → treated as success).
• WoS metadata mapping: Automatically maps WoS fields to Zotero's journalArticle schema.
• Extra field: Stores WoS-specific data (WoS ID, citation counts, JIF, JCR quartile, research areas) in Zotero's Extra field.
• Author parsing: Handles WoS standard format "LastName, Initials" → Zotero firstName/lastName.
• Keywords: Both Author Keywords and Keywords Plus are added as Zotero tags.

Notes

• Mode A (Zotero push) requires no browser interaction — uses data from prior API calls
• Mode A works even when browser is not on a WoS page
• Script path: e:\wos-skills\.claude\skills\wos-export\scripts\push_to_zotero.py
• Zotero must be running on localhost:23119
