BioContextAI Knowledgebase MCP
==========
Overview
--------
BioContextAI Knowledgebase MCP implements MCP servers for common biomedical resources, enabling agentic large language models (LLMs) to retrieve verified information and perform domain-specific tasks. Unlike previous approaches requiring custom integration for each resource, BioContextAI provides a unified access layer through the Model Context Protocol that enables interoperability between AI systems and domain-specific data sources.
BioContextAI is available both as:
- An open-source software package for local hosting (see :ref:`Self-hosting <selfhosting>`)
- A remote server for setup-free integration at https://mcp.biocontext.ai/mcp/ (subject to fair use)
The **BioContextAI Registry** catalogues community servers that expose biomedical databases and analysis tools, providing the community with a resource for tool discovery and distribution. The registry index can be found at: https://biocontext.ai/registry.
