Use pz directly in Claude Code. The short version:
  1. Install the Paperzilla CLI and run pz login.
  2. Make sure pz works in the same terminal environment where Claude Code runs.
  3. Ask Claude Code to use pz for Paperzilla tasks.
Typical flow: 
pz project list --json
pz feed search --project-id <project-id> --query "retrieval evaluation" --json
pz paper <paper-id> --json
pz rec <project-paper-id> --markdown
pz project list --json returns a compact project summary array, which is usually enough to pick the right project-id. Use pz paper for canonical paper metadata. Use pz rec --markdown after a project feed search when you want markdown in project context. That path can queue markdown generation if it is not ready yet. You do not need a custom Paperzilla connector for this CLI path. Claude Code can already run shell commands in your workspace. If you want the remote tool-calling path in Claude instead, use Paperzilla MCP with Claude. For the full CLI command reference, see CLI guide.
