Openarx
Search open scientific knowledge and optionally publish or govern records through MCP while you research feasibility for AI or biotech ideas.
Overview
OpenArx is an MCP server for the Idea phase that exposes search, publish, and govern profiles for open scientific knowledge to AI agents.
What is this MCP server?
- Three MCP profiles: search (mcp.openarx.ai/v1/mcp), publish (/pub/mcp), govern (/gov/mcp)
- Open scientific knowledge graph oriented to AI agents
- Streamable-http remotes; version 0.1.0-alpha
- Open-source core referenced at github.com/OpenArx-AI/openarx-core
- Separates read/search from publish and governance workflows
- 3 MCP profiles with separate streamable-http URLs (search, publish, govern)
- Server version 0.1.0-alpha
Community signal: 8 GitHub stars.
What problem does it solve?
You are exploring a science-heavy product idea and your agent cannot reliably query or cite open research without brittle manual PDF and link handling.
Who is it for?
Solo builders researching AI, bio, or knowledge-heavy ventures who want MCP-native scientific search before building datasets or apps.
Skip if: Pure B2B SaaS with no research component, or teams that require only paywalled publisher APIs with no open-knowledge angle.
What do I get? / Deliverables
You connect the appropriate OpenArx MCP profile so your agent can search—and when needed publish or govern—scientific knowledge through standardized tools.
- Agent queries against OpenArx search MCP for scientific knowledge
- Optional publish or govern MCP connections for contributing or curating records
- Faster structured research passes before build commitments
Recommended MCP Servers
Journey fit
OpenArx is used earliest when you are gathering evidence and prior art before committing to a technical build, which aligns with the Idea research shelf. The search profile and knowledge graph surface literature and claims for discovery; publish and govern profiles extend into later phases but search anchors research.
How it compares
Scientific-knowledge MCP with three endpoints, not a generic web browser automation or code-review skill.
Common Questions / FAQ
Who is OpenArx for?
OpenArx is for developers and indie researchers building agent workflows that need open scientific knowledge search, publishing, or governance.
When should I use OpenArx?
Use the search profile during idea and validate research; use publish and govern when your product contributes to or curates open scientific records.
How do I add OpenArx to my agent?
Add one or more streamable-http remotes—https://mcp.openarx.ai/v1/mcp for search, /pub/mcp for publish, /gov/mcp for govern—in your MCP client configuration.
