Server Details

eLife MCP — keyless open-access life-sciences & biomedical journal articles.

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.

TDQS

A3.7/5.0

Scored across 34 tools

Disambiguation2/5

The set has several overlapping router/research tools (ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_beta, ask_pipeworx_grounded, deep_research) that an agent could easily confuse, and the Polymarket tools intersect on edge/arbitrage/fill-risk analysis. eLife and memory/subscription tools are mostly distinct, but the boundaries between core research tools are blurry.

Naming Consistency3/5

All names use snake_case, but there is no single predictable pattern: some are pipeworx_-prefixed, some use noun phrases (entity_profile, latest_articles), and others use bare verbs (remember, subscribe, forget). It remains readable, but consistency is mixed.

Tool Count2/5

34 tools is heavy for almost any MCP server, and the mix of a small eLife article API with a broad Pipeworx data/betting/meta toolkit makes the count feel bloated rather than well-scoped. Several tools exist only as aliases or near-duplicates (ask_pipeworx_beta).

Completeness3/5

For eLife articles, the three tools cover search, recent listing, and article retrieval, but lack full-text/author browse and other journal-oriented operations. The broader data-gateway surface is extensive, but the mixed domains prevent a clean lifecycle assessment.
