cyanheads / pubmed-mcp-server

Search PubMed/Europe PMC, fetch articles and full text (PMC/EPMC/Unpaywall), citations, MeSH terms via MCP. STDIO or Streamable HTTP.

Why this job: name: mcp; says: mcp server; topics: mcp-server, model-context-protocol, mcp

What it does

  • Full PubMed query syntax plus filters (author, journal, MeSH, publication type, language, species, abstract, free full text) and publication/modification/Entrez date ranges
  • query is optional. with an author, journal, MeSH, or publication-type filter, the filters alone make the search (a journal's output over a date range, for example)
  • Up to 1,000 results per page and offsets up to 9,998, or maxResults: 0 for the match count alone; summaryCount adds briefs for up to 50 hits. A larger page size is served at the cap with a notice naming where to continue
  • Reports totalCount, the effectiveQuery PubMed ran, and the appliedFilters
  • Rejects blank filter values, impossible dates, and reversed date ranges before PubMed is called
