 The most important code is in [[https://www.zotero.org/trac/browser/plugins/helloworld/trunk/chrome/content/helloworldzotero/hello.js|chrome://helloworldzotero/content/hello.js]], which defines a method to insert a new item into the Zotero database and registers a callback function with the Zotero Notifier to receive a notification when an item is modified. The script is loaded by [[https://www.zotero.org/trac/browser/plugins/helloworld/trunk/chrome/content/helloworldzotero/include.js|chrome://helloworldzotero/content/include.js]], which is included into the main overlay by [[https://www.zotero.org/trac/browser/plugins/helloworld/trunk/chrome/content/helloworldzotero/overlay.xul|chrome/content/helloworldzotero/overlay.xul]]. The latter also adds a menu item to the Zotero Actions menu.
