Adamamer20 Paper Search Mcp Openai
Wire your coding agent to search and download papers from arXiv, PubMed, bioRxiv, medRxiv, Google Scholar, and Semantic Scholar while scoping a product or technical bet.
Overview
ai.smithery/adamamer20-paper-search-mcp-openai is an MCP server for the Idea phase that searches and downloads academic papers from major scholarly indexes for agent-driven research.
What is this MCP server?
- Multi-source academic search across arXiv, PubMed, bioRxiv, medRxiv, Google Scholar, and Semantic Scholar
- Download papers for offline summarization inside Claude Code, Cursor, or Codex
- Streamable HTTP remote on Smithery with Bearer auth (v1.14.0)
- Backed by adamamer20/paper-search-mcp-openai on GitHub
- MCP tools invoked from the agent—no separate CLI install in-repo
- Server version 1.14.0 per server.schema.json
- Six named source families: arXiv, PubMed, bioRxiv, medRxiv, Google Scholar, Semantic Scholar
- Remote transport: streamable-http on Smithery
Community signal: 13 GitHub stars.
What problem does it solve?
Builders waste hours tab-hopping across arXiv, PubMed, and Google Scholar when an agent could fetch and attach the right papers in one session.
Who is it for?
Indie builders validating technical or scientific ideas who want citable sources inside Claude Code, Cursor, or Codex without a separate research toolchain.
Skip if: Teams that need enterprise literature APIs, bulk corpus licensing, or guaranteed full-text access behind paywalls without manual retrieval.
What do I get? / Deliverables
After you register the Smithery remote, your agent can pull targeted papers and metadata into the same thread you use to scope features and validate assumptions.
- Search results and metadata from configured scholarly sources
- Downloaded paper files usable in the active agent conversation
- Research snippets you can paste into PRDs, specs, or validation docs
