Glama MCP Gateway
Connect through Glama MCP Gateway for full control over tool access and complete visibility into every call.
MCP client
Glama
MCP server
Full call logging
Every tool call is logged with complete inputs and outputs, so you can debug issues and audit what your agents are doing.
Tool access control
Enable or disable individual tools per connector, so you decide what your agents can and cannot do.
Managed credentials
Glama handles OAuth flows, token storage, and automatic rotation, so credentials never expire on your clients.
Usage analytics
See which tools your agents call, how often, and when, so you can understand usage patterns and catch anomalies.
100% free. Your data is private.
Tool Definition Quality
B3.2/5.0
Tool DescriptionsB
Average 3.4/5 across 41 of 41 tools scored. Lowest: 2.3/5.
Server CoherenceA
Disambiguation3/5
Multiple tools overlap in functionality (e.g., forward citation search via get_paper_citations and get_openalex_citations; bibliography via get_paper_references and get_openalex_references). While descriptions clarify the source, an agent may mis-select without careful reading.
Naming Consistency4/5
Most tools follow a verb_noun pattern (e.g., search_papers, get_author, lint_latex). Some inconsistency between 'list_' and 'get_' prefixes (list_categories vs get_paper), but overall naming is clear and predictable.
Tool Count3/5
41 tools is high, covering many sub-domains (papers, authors, citations, OCR, datasets, medical search, etc.). While each tool appears justified, the count feels somewhat bloated for a single server, risking agent confusion.
Completeness5/5
The server offers a comprehensive set of operations for academic paper research: search, retrieval, full-text reading, citation/reference graphs, recommendation, author profiles, PDF extraction, formula/table recognition, and even medical evidence search. No critical gaps are apparent.
Claim this connector by publishing a /.well-known/glama.json file on your server's domain with the following structure:
{
"$schema": "https://glama.ai/mcp/schemas/connector.json",
"maintainers": [{ "email": "your-email@example.com" }]
}The email address must match the email associated with your Glama account. Once published, Glama will automatically detect and verify the file within a few minutes.

Feature your server to boost visibility and reach more users
For users:
Full audit trail – every tool call is logged with inputs and outputs for compliance and debugging
Granular tool control – enable or disable individual tools per connector to limit what your AI agents can do
Centralized credential management – store and rotate API keys and OAuth tokens in one place
Change alerts – get notified when a connector changes its schema, adds or removes tools, or updates tool definitions, so nothing breaks silently
For server owners:
Proven adoption – public usage metrics on your listing show real-world traction and build trust with prospective users
Tool-level analytics – see which tools are being used most, helping you prioritize development and documentation
Direct user feedback – users can report issues and suggest improvements through the listing, giving you a channel you would not have otherwise
The connector status is unhealthy when Glama is unable to successfully connect to the server. This can happen for several reasons:
The server is experiencing an outage
The URL of the server is wrong
Credentials required to access the server are missing or invalid
