paper-summarize

The auto pipeline ingests metadata + abstract only — Summary / Key Findings / Methodology / Relevance stay as [TODO] skeletons in both Obsidian and Zotero. Cluster-level summarization (NotebookLM brief, crystals) does NOT fill per-paper notes. So after auto, the user has nothing scannable per paper without opening the PDF.

This skill fills that gap. One LLM call per paper, JSON-validated, written to both vault systems atomically (rollback the markdown change if Zotero write fails so the two stay in sync).

When to use

Trigger phrases:

• "Summarize the papers in cluster X."
• "Fill the TODO Key Findings for X."
• "I just ran auto X and the notes are empty — give me real summaries."
• "Update Zotero notes for cluster X with what each paper actually says."
