Chembl
Server Details
ChEMBL MCP — drug discovery database (EBI).
Glama couldn't complete the latest health check. If this server requires authentication, missing or expired test credentials may be the cause. A test profile lets Glama authenticate for health checks and discover tools; it is separate from your personal connections.
If you are the author, claim ownership, then add or update a test profile under Admin → Test Profile.

Scored across 42 tools
The set contains multiple near-duplicate tools (ask_pipeworx and ask_pipeworx_beta are explicitly identical; mechanism and chembl_mechanism overlap; five polymarket edge tools cover similar ground), so an agent cannot reliably tell them apart. The 42 tools also span completely unrelated domains under the 'Chembl' name, making misselection very likely.
Most names follow a snake_case pattern, but the set mixes verb-first names (ask_pipeworx, list_subscriptions, generate_llms_txt), bare nouns (molecule, target, activities, mechanism), and inconsistent phrasings like bet_research or discover_tools versus search. It is readable but not predictable enough to infer behavior from the name.
42 tools is far too many for a server named Chembl, and only a small fraction actually serve ChEMBL data. Large clusters of prediction-market, memory, subscription, and unrelated Pipeworx tools inflate the count and include redundant variants rather than distinct capabilities.
The ChEMBL core covers common read-only queries: search, molecule, target, activities, mechanism, and drug indications. However, there are dead ends such as documents being searchable but not retrievable, no assay record tool, and the overall surface is diluted by many unrelated tools that do not form a coherent ChEMBL domain.
