MCP server for the OpenAlex API — search 240M+ scholarly works, analyze citations, track research trends, and map collaboration networks
Provides 31 specialized tools across literature search, citation analysis, author/institution profiling, and research trend tracking, with built-in presets for credible journal rankings (UTD24, FT50, AJG tiers, top AI conferences) and institution groups to enable filtered searches. Implements in-memory caching with TTL, exponential backoff retry logic, and Zod input validation for resilient API calls, with a one-command setup that auto-detects Claude Desktop configuration and verifies connectivity. Integrates exclusively with Claude Desktop via the Model Context Protocol (MCP) stdio transport, requiring only an email and optional API key to unlock programmatic access to OpenAlex's 240M+ scholarly records.
Available on npm.
