The PubMed MCP Server is a powerful tool that integrates PubMed's biomedical literature database with AI agents and research tools, enabling seamless access and interaction through the Model Context Protocol.

The PubMed MCP Server acts as a bridge, allowing applications that understand the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to interact directly and efficiently with PubMed's vast biomedical literature database. This server empowers AI agents and research tools to automate research workflows, gain insights, and integrate PubMed into AI-driven research. It provides comprehensive access to PubMed's data, enabling users to search, retrieve, analyze, and visualize scientific publications through NCBI's E-utilities API. Built on a modular architecture, the server ensures robust error handling, logging, and security features. By leveraging this server, users can automate literature searches, fetch full article metadata, track citations, and generate research plans programmatically. Additionally, it supports data visualization, allowing users to create charts and visualizations from publication metadata and search results. The server is built on the robust mcp-ts-template, providing a standardized, secure, and efficient way to expose PubMed functionality via the MCP standard.
