Scholarly Research MCP
arin_gadre · MCP server
Scholarly Research searches academic sources for papers on a topic, filtering by author, journal and date, and lets your AI assistant read them rather than only their abstracts. It can extract quotes, statistics and findings, search within a paper, produce citations in several formats and keep your search and display preferences. A separate web research tool scrapes and searches the web through Firecrawl when you supply an API key. Google Scholar and some ArXiv full-text features need a local Chrome or Chromium.

Why it's useful
Your agent can search several academic sources and read the papers in one place instead of you moving between databases.
What you could do with it
- Ask for recent papers on a topic from PubMed and ArXiv, filtered by author, journal or date range.
- Have your agent pull the key quotes, statistics and findings out of a paper you name.
- Get a paper's citation in the format your reference list needs.
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
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.
In its maker's words
Consolidated MCP server for scholarly research across PubMed, ArXiv, Google Scholar, and JSTOR (5 powerful tools instead of 24)

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 2.0.3, the file with digest sha512-OmRxT1TJyohINw3mlfmcTJlUuipPpGHKEP0HZleABGoG6Bnr5JBNM3qPt8zhvi5R4C0db2RCxYziAaziLNAgwA==, 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.
