Lets your assistant reason through a problem in numbered steps, revising and branching as it goes.
Latest Science MCP
futurelab-studio · MCP server
Latest Science MCP lets an AI assistant harvest scientific papers from arXiv, OpenAlex, PubMed Central, Europe PMC, bioRxiv and medRxiv, and CORE. Your agent can browse categories, fetch the latest papers in a category, search arXiv, OpenAlex, Europe PMC and CORE by title, abstract, author or full text, find the most-cited papers on a topic since a date, and look up a paper by ID and extract its text. A command line interface is also included. It suits researchers who want an assistant following new literature.

Why it's useful
Your agent can follow new research across several academic databases and read the papers it finds from a single connection.
What you could do with it
- Fetch the latest arXiv papers in an AI category and list their titles and authors.
- Find the most-cited machine learning papers since a chosen date using OpenAlex.
- Look up a bioRxiv paper by its DOI and pull its full text for your agent to read.
Written from its documentation: what it says it can do, not what our checks found.
Maintenance
Not measuredNo release date is on record for this package yet. The nightly publisher check records one as it reaches each npm package, about once every ten nights.
Release activity only: it says nothing about quality or safety, and a finished small package can be fine without releases. How it is measured
- Licence and provenance
- finding
- no LICENCE file at the root (.)
Published because it was found. A finding is information about where the limits are, not a verdict that the software is unsafe.
What this does not cover
- Everything. Treat it as you would software from anywhere else.
Receipt history: every signed receipt for every version of this listing, and what changed between them.

Static scanned
- What it establishes
- Its published package, or for a hosted server its source repository at a recorded commit, was read file by file, without running it, by every check in our current scan.
- What it does not
- How it behaves when it runs, or anything the scan does not read yet: several rubric checks, the repository's history, and compiled code in folders named dist or build. For a hosted server, that the endpoint runs the code that was read. The ooruby Index sets out exactly what was read.
- Exactly what was read
- Version 0.1.40, the file with digest sha512-c4jWs9YH9XY5NByMAP9bkP9vEVO6bejy97NXQ+oeAEmZBKwUZWgOdNmIrLWM03Tdu4XXO9zOx+jUofUbzxGJbA==, as the registry publishes it. A published version cannot be replaced, so this names the same bytes for anyone who checks.
- Authentication
- Runs locally. No hosted endpoint is listed for this package. You run it on your own machine, so there is no endpoint of ours to authenticate against.

No build provenance published. The repository above is the one the publisher declared, and nothing links it to the package you would install. That is not a mark against this listing, since most packages are published this way, but it is a check nobody can run.
The badge, if this is your listing
It renders the current rung (static scanned) and links back here, where what that does and does not establish is one click away. It updates itself as the evidence deepens.
