Semantic Scholar
This MCP server provides comprehensive access to the Semantic Scholar academic search API, enabling AI assistants to search for research papers, retrieve detailed paper and author information, analyze citation networks, and discover paper recommendations. Built by Alperen Kocyigit using Python with FastMCP, it implements robust retry logic with exponential backoff for rate limiting and includes advanced features like batch operations for multiple papers/authors, text snippet search within papers, autocomplete suggestions, and ML-powered paper recommendations based on positive/negative examples. The implementation is designed for academic research workflows, literature reviews, citation analysis, and building AI research assistants that need to navigate and analyze the scholarly literature landscape.
Composite of vulnerability cleanliness, spec conformance, provenance, stability, and usage signals — scanned and weighted by Cognium. Human and agent signals are tracked separately.
