daily-notes

Automated daily aggregation of Zotero notes and PDF annotations.

Every day at 6:00 PM, a launchd agent runs zotero_daily_notes.py, writes that day's notes and annotations to daily-notes/YYYY-MM-DD.md, then commits and pushes the result to GitHub.

Layout

• zotero_daily_notes.py — aggregates Zotero notes/annotations for a given day.
• run_daily.sh — wrapper that generates the note, commits, and pushes.
• com.lagillenwater.zotero-daily.plist — launchd schedule (6pm daily).
• daily-notes/ — generated Markdown, one file per day.
• logs/ — run logs (git-ignored).

Manual run

./run_daily.sh

Or generate a specific day without committing:

python3 zotero_daily_notes.py --date 2026-06-23 --data-dir ~/Zotero --out-dir ./daily-notes
