Overview

AI-generated overview

A remote MCP server that lets an assistant search PubMed biomedical literature, read article details, and explore MeSH terms and citations.

What you can do
Search PubMed for articles, reviews and clinical studies using MeSH terms, field tags and boolean operators, and look up standardized MeSH descriptors with scope notes and IDs. Retrieve full details for an article by PMID, including title, authors, abstract, MeSH terms, publication types, journal info and DOI. Expand a literature review by finding conceptually related papers or articles that cite a given PMID.
When to use it
Useful for biomedical or clinical research questions where the assistant should ground answers in published literature, trace citations and follow-up studies, or build precise MeSH-based queries.
Requirements
A remote streamable HTTP endpoint; no local runtime, account, API key or headers are declared.
Before you install
Read-only lookups; no writing, sending or deleting is described. Queries and PMIDs are sent to the remote endpoint and on to PubMed/NCBI, so search terms leave your machine.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open PubMed / MEDLINE Literature Search in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Use with an agent

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.

Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/com.olyport%2Fpubmed/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.

Read the install guide the agent follows
