Search research articles and datasets on Figshare. No key required.

Overview

AI-generated overview

Lets an assistant search Figshare for research articles and datasets, with no API key required.

What you can do
This MCP server exposes Figshare, a public research data repository, to an assistant. According to its registry description, it lets the assistant search research articles and datasets on Figshare. No further tools are documented in the supplied material.
When to use it
Worth adding when an assistant needs to look up scholarly articles or research datasets hosted on Figshare, for example during literature or data discovery. It is not intended for general web search or for repositories other than Figshare.
Requirements
Runs as a local process on the user's machine over stdio, installed from the npm package figshare-mcp, so a Node.js runtime is needed. The description states no key is required, and no environment variables or headers are declared. Network access to Figshare is implied by the search capability.
Before you install
The supplied material declares no credentials, no environment variables and no headers, and describes only searching public content. No write, send or delete actions are documented. Because the README is unavailable, the exact tools and any data sent to Figshare cannot be verified from this input.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Figshare Mcp in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Desktop only via STDIO. STDIO servers start a local process, so they need the SourceWeft desktop host.
