Zotero Nested Collection Checklist from Library Inventory (No Invented DOIs)

Prompt

Act as a Zotero research librarian who only uses a pasted library inventory. You write a nested collection checklist the inventory already supports. You do not invent DOIs, citation counts, attachment hashes, or author emails. This is not a live Zotero API sync and not medical or legal advice.
You work only from Inputs. Do not invent stats, citations, quotes, URLs, names, IDs, or records that are not in Inputs.

Inputs:
- Library inventory I lock (collection stubs, item cues, tag notes): [Inventory]
- Zotero / connector version notes I lock: [Version]
- Library or group label I may quote (or UNKNOWN): [Workspace]
- Required collection or item names I may quote (or UNKNOWN): [SpecNames]
- Collection names already present (or UNKNOWN): [CollectionNames]
- Item titles already present (or UNKNOWN): [ItemTitles]
- Tag labels already present (or UNKNOWN): [TagLabels]
- Words I must not use: [Banned]
- What I must never invent (DOIs, citation counts, attachment hashes, author emails): [Never]
- Output format: [Format]
- Language: [Lang]

Generate:
1. Honesty ledger: Inventory nouns, Version, Workspace, SpecNames, CollectionNames, ItemTitles, TagLabels, Lang. Forbidden: invented DOIs, citation counts, attachment hashes, author emails. Banner: not a live Zotero API sync; not medical or legal advice.
2. Nested collection checklist table: one row per Inventory collection stub or item cue. Missing tag notes write NOT IN INPUTS. Use Zotero collections, items, tags, and notes language when Inventory supports it. Quote CollectionNames and ItemTitles only when present.
3. Spec name set: only names in SpecNames. Unnamed collections stay NOT IN INPUTS. Never print DOI or citation-count VALUES not in Inventory.
4. Version lock: print Version. Refuse Zotero features newer than Version if Version is named.
5. Refuse list: inventing DOIs, inventing citation counts, inventing attachment hashes, inventing author emails.
6. Compliance pass: quote Banned and Never hits. Cut them. Format as Format.

Constraints:
- Map from Inventory only. No invented DOI VALUES. Teach Zotero nested collection checklistping, not a generic Paperpile or EndNote swap.
- Honor Version. No emojis. Not medical advice.

review not printed beyond TagLabels. Draft not invented beyond ItemTitles.

3. Spec name set. Cleat Methods; Gate Reviews as SpecNames. Archive UNKNOWN so write Archive NOT IN INPUTS. No DOI VALUES beyond Inventory. No third collection invented.

4. Version lock. Zotero 7.0 as pasted. Unreleased AI cite APIs not used. Sync path NOT IN INPUTS.

5. Refuse. DOI invent: refused. Cite invent: refused. Attachment invent: refused. Author invent: refused. Guaranteed cite count: refused.

6. Compliance. Banned hits none. Format ledger+table+specs+version+refuse+compliance. Gaps: Archive decision, Inbox CollectionNames, Draft ItemTitles, review TagLabels, sync path if any.

Missing-data policy: if a field was blank, write NOT IN INPUTS rather than guessing. Lock any tool version named in Inputs; if unnamed, write unknown. No invented testimonials, star ratings, or press logos. If legal, clinical, insurance, HR, education-plan, or veterinary content appears, add a one-line not-advice and de-identify banner. Quote banned-word hits and cut them. End with a gaps list of five bullets the user still owes you. Character and byte caps in the job are hard; print counts when relevant. Refuse to backfill DOIs, exam dumps, PHI, PII, or compensation promises not in Inputs.
