Safari Connector fails to save AGU/Wiley articles (GRL, JAMES) but works correctly for other publish

Environment

* macOS 26.5.2
* Safari 26.5.2
* Zotero 9.0.6
* Zotero Connector 5.0.205

Description

The Zotero Safari Connector consistently fails to save articles from AGU journals hosted on Wiley (e.g., Geophysical Research Letters and JAMES), while it works normally for other publishers.

Expected behavior

Clicking the Zotero Connector on an AGU article page should save the bibliographic metadata and attach the associated PDF (when available).

Actual behavior

On AGU/Wiley article pages, the connector fails to save the article correctly. Importing the DOI using Add Item by Identifier successfully creates the bibliographic record, but no PDF is attached.

What I’ve verified

* “Automatically attach associated PDFs and other files when saving items” is enabled.
* Resetting translators did not resolve the issue.
* The same Zotero installation and Safari Connector work correctly for other publishers (e.g., AMS).
* I have institutional access through Yale and can manually download PDFs from the affected AGU articles without any issue, so this does not appear to be an access or subscription problem.

Working example

Journal of Physical Oceanography (AMS)

* Articles are recognized and saved normally by the Safari Connector.

Failing examples

Legacy GRL article:

https://agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1029/GL016i001p00045

Modern JAMES article:

(Please insert one representative JAMES URL exhibiting the same behavior.)

Additional observations

The issue appears to be specific to AGU journals hosted on agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com. Other publishers work normally using the same browser, Zotero installation, and connector.
