Click on "Install Server".
Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state.
In the chat, type
@followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@real-world-mcpRank the top 10 US sites for the Graves' disease trial by expected 12-month accrual."
That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.
Real-World Evidence & Clinical Feasibility MCP Server
Repository: Krv-Labs/how-to-train-your-dragon
Ranks US healthcare organizations by expected randomized subjects per 12 months for a Graves' disease protocol (NCT07570316) from longitudinal claims (Komodo) and public registries (ClinicalTrials.gov), exposed as an interactive Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for AI agents.
The Python package is httyd; the MCP server registers as real-world-mcp. CLI entry points: httyd, realworld-mcp, and how-to-train-your-dragon.
Why the name? Built on Komodo Health claims data — taming and training the Komodo dragon into actionable feasibility models.

2. Quickstart
Install
uv syncPrecompute cache (recommended)
A full national score rebuild takes ~90s. Precompute once and reuse:
uv run python scripts/precompute.py
export REALWORLD_CACHE_DIR=./cache # optional; defaults to ./cache when presentRun tests
REALWORLD_CACHE_DIR=./cache uv run pytestSome tests (sensitivity rescore, validation) trigger a full rebuild and take ~2 minutes total.
Start the MCP server
# stdio transport (default — Claude Desktop, Cursor)
uv run httyd
# streamable-http (local dev)
AUTH_ENABLED=false REALWORLD_CACHE_DIR=./cache uv run httyd streamable-http
curl http://localhost:8080/healthGenerate local preview dashboard
uv run python ui/build_dashboard.py

}5. GKE Internal Deployment
Deploy as an internal ClusterIP MCP service. Subagent pods authenticate with Kubernetes ServiceAccount tokens validated via the TokenReview API.
