Actions & Tags is a Zotero plugin for automating library organization through event-driven actions and custom scripts. It can add or remove tags when items are created, opened, closed, modified, or matched by other triggers. Users can also launch actions manually through configurable keyboard shortcuts. Built-in and community examples cover tag replacement, item-link copying, automatic note creation, and metadata translation. Scriptable operations allow advanced users to manipulate selected items, notes, collections, and application behavior. Actions can be combined into repeatable workflows that reduce manual cataloging and cleanup. The plugin is installed as an XPI extension and is intended to make Zotero adapt to individual research habits.
