HuggingFace Daily Papers MCP Server

A MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for fetching HuggingFace daily papers.

Features

Fetch today's, yesterday's or specific date HuggingFace papers
Provides paper title, authors, abstract, tags, votes, and submitted by info
Includes paper links and PDF download links
Supports MCP tools and resource interfaces
ArXiv integration for complete author lists

Installation & Usage

Option 1: Direct execution with uvx (Recommended)

Install and run directly using uvx:

uvx huggingface-daily-paper-mcp

This will automatically install the package and its dependencies, then start the MCP server.

Option 2: Local development

For local development, clone the repository and install dependencies:

git clone https://github.com/huangxinping/huggingface-daily-paper-mcp.git
cd huggingface-daily-paper-mcp
uv sync

Local usage commands

Run as MCP Server (for development):

python main.py

Test Scraper Function:

python scraper.py

Run Tests:

uv run -m pytest test_mcp_server.py -v

Build Package:

uv build
