TIA!

@pleiadesc:
ZMI is a Calibre plug-in that uses a standard user-generated Zotero .csv export file as its primary source of data. It also reads Zotero's document storage folders plus does a scan of a few of its SQLite tables in order to compare what Calibre has to what Zotero has to show the user what is missing from Calibre and still needs to be imported into Calibre via ZMI. It does not update Zotero at all.
Updating Zotero itself entails using its ever-changing browser-oriented API, which constantly evolves as JavaScript, HTML, CSS, web browsers, and related technologies and standards evolve.
Zotero does not use Python, in which all 11 of my Calibre plug-ins are written. For that and other reasons, I lost interest in creating a Zotero plug-in several months ago after looking into doing so.
I suggest that you request that a native Zotero plug-in be created and maintained by a Zotero plug-in developer via
https://www.zotero.org/support/ .
