Enables academic research through one stdio server that searches, reads, and relates papers from a large research index, searches multiple paper providers with PDF retrieval and Markdown conversion, and optionally searches a local Markdown corpus with hybrid retrieval and claim comparison. A unified search tool queries all three sources at once while preserving per-source errors.

Monitors PubMed and medRxiv for configurable research topics, summarizes papers using a local LLM, and stores deduplicated results in a local database.

Enables assistants to search, fetch daily curated lists, retrieve metadata, and generate citations for Hugging Face papers.

Unified academic search MCP server that searches open literature (arXiv, bioRxiv, medRxiv, PMC), CNKI, and Web of Science, with browser-backed authentication, local paper library, and export to multiple formats.

Enables semantic search across scientific papers in your Zotero library with hybrid search, incremental indexing, and cross-encoder reranking.

Enables AI tools to search and retrieve data from various South Korean and Japanese academic databases, including research journals, historical records, and legislative information.

Provides 11 composable MCP tools for A-share market research, covering quotes, news, technical signals, sector performance, portfolio risk, backtesting, and paper trading, with traceable data sources and calculation basis.
