BGPT MCP API

Busca artículos científicos desde Claude, Cursor o cualquier herramienta de IA compatible con MCP.

BGPT es un servidor remoto de Model Context Protocol (MCP) que brinda a los asistentes de IA acceso a una base de datos de artículos científicos construida a partir de estudios de texto completo. A diferencia de las herramientas de búsqueda típicas que devuelven títulos y resúmenes, BGPT extrae datos experimentales sin procesar: métodos, resultados, conclusiones, puntuaciones de calidad, tamaños de muestra, limitaciones y más de 25 campos de metadatos por artículo.

MCP Compatible npm License: MIT bgpt-mcp MCP server


Inicio rápido

Añade BGPT a tu cliente MCP; no se requiere clave API para el nivel gratuito (50 resultados gratuitos).

Opción A: Conexión remota (Recomendado)

La mayoría de los clientes MCP modernos admiten conexiones remotas directas. BGPT ofrece dos transportes:

Transporte

Endpoint

SSE

https://bgpt.pro/mcp/sse

Streamable HTTP

https://bgpt.pro/mcp/stream

Claude Desktop (claude_desktop_config.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "bgpt": {
      "url": "https://bgpt.pro/mcp/sse"
    }
  }
}

Cursor (.cursor/mcp.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "bgpt": {
      "url": "https://bgpt.pro/mcp/sse"
    }
  }
}

Claude Code (CLI):

claude mcp add bgpt --transport sse https://bgpt.pro/mcp/sse

Cline / Roo Code / Windsurf — misma configuración:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "bgpt": {
      "url": "https://bgpt.pro/mcp/sse"
    }
  }
}

Consejo: Si tu cliente admite Streamable HTTP, puedes usar https://bgpt.pro/mcp/stream en su lugar.

Opción B: Vía npx (para clientes que necesitan un comando local)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "bgpt": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "bgpt-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Opción C: Instalación global

npm install -g bgpt-mcp

Luego añádelo a tu configuración de MCP:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "bgpt": {
      "command": "bgpt-mcp"
    }
  }
}

Cualquier cliente MCP

Conéctate a cualquiera de los endpoints:

SSE:              https://bgpt.pro/mcp/sse
Streamable HTTP:  https://bgpt.pro/mcp/stream

Eso es todo. Sin Docker, sin pasos de compilación.

Available Tools

2 tools
lookup_paperLook up paper by DOIA
Read-onlyIdempotent
Inspect

Look up a single paper by its DOI.

ParametersJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
doiYesThe DOI of the paper (e.g. "10.1038/s41586-024-07386-0").

Output Schema

ParametersJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescription

No output parameters

TDQS

A3.7/5.0
Behavior3/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint and idempotentHint, indicating a safe, idempotent operation. The description adds no extra behavioral context (e.g., response format, authentication) beyond what annotations provide.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is a single, direct sentence with no wasted words. It is front-loaded with the core action and resource.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness5/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

For a simple tool with one parameter and an output schema, the description fully covers the functionality. The output schema eliminates the need to describe return values.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

The input schema has 100% description coverage for the single 'doi' parameter, including an example. The description ('by its DOI') adds no additional meaning beyond what the schema already conveys.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description clearly states the action ('look up') and the resource ('a single paper') using a specific identifier ('DOI'). This directly distinguishes it from the sibling tool 'search_papers', which would be used for broader searches.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines2/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. The sibling tool 'search_papers' is listed, but the description does not contrast or provide usage context.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.

search_papersSearch scientific papersA
Read-onlyIdempotent
Inspect

Search BGPT's database of scientific papers by keyword.

ParametersJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
queryYesSearch terms (e.g. "CRISPR gene editing efficiency") Short, concise queries are best. English language only. Don't include years or filters — use the days_back and num_results params instead.
days_backNoOnly return papers published within the last N days.
num_resultsNoNumber of results to return (1-100, default 16). First 50 results are free, then billed at $0.01/result for paid users.

Output Schema

ParametersJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescription

No output parameters

TDQS

A3.7/5.0
Behavior2/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Annotations already provide readOnlyHint and idempotentHint. The description adds no behavioral context beyond 'search by keyword,' such as rate limits, pagination behavior, or billing details (which are in param descriptions but not the main description). Minimal additional value.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness4/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Single sentence, no wasted words. However, it is very brief and could be structured to front-load key information like what the tool does, but it does so adequately.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness4/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Given the tool's simplicity, parameter richness, and presence of output schema, the description is sufficiently complete. It covers the core function and leaves return value details to the output schema.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters4/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema descriptions cover all parameters (100%). The description adds valuable usage hints beyond schema: 'Short, concise queries are best. English language only. Don't include years or filters...' This aids correct parameter use.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

Description clearly states the verb (Search), resource (BGPT's database of scientific papers), and method (by keyword). It distinguishes from sibling lookup_paper which is likely a direct lookup by ID.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines3/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

No explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus lookup_paper. The description implies use for keyword search, but does not state when not to use it or provide alternatives. Usage is implied but not clearly delineated.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.

TDQS

A3.8/5.0
Disambiguation5/5

The two tools have entirely distinct purposes: lookup_paper retrieves a specific paper by DOI, while search_papers finds papers by keyword. There is no overlap or ambiguity.

Naming Consistency5/5

Both tool names follow a consistent verb_noun snake_case pattern (lookup_paper, search_papers), making them predictable and readable.

Tool Count3/5

With only two tools, the server feels minimal but not unreasonable for a focused paper retrieval service. However, it's on the thin side for a database named BGPT.

Completeness3/5

The server provides basic search and retrieval by DOI, covering core read operations. Missing features like author-based search, citation info, or export are notable but not critical for simple use.
