First, create a .env file and fill in the following variables:

model=""  
llm_api_base = ""  
llm_api_key=""  
zotero_api_key=''  
library_id=''  

model is the name of the LLM, llm_api_base is the URL of the LLM, and llm_api_key is the API Key for the LLM. The zotero_api_key can be created by visiting the Zotero, and your library_id is shown below:

Then start the server:
