Academic Research Intelligence MCP

Each tool targets a distinct aspect of academic research intelligence—authors, papers, citations, trends, briefs, and protocol info—with clearly different purposes. Descriptions further clarify any potential overlaps, making misselection unlikely.

All tool names use lowercase snake_case, which is consistent. However, the pattern varies between verb_noun (search_papers), noun_noun (author_profile, citation_graph), and adjective_noun (brief_summary, daily_brief), showing minor inconsistency.

Nine tools is well-scoped for a research intelligence server. The count covers essential functions without being overwhelming or sparse, and each tool serves a clear purpose.

The tool set covers core research workflows: search, detail, citation analysis, author profiling, similarity, and trends. Minor gaps exist (e.g., no tool for comparing authors or exporting data), but the surface is largely complete for its domain.
