概要

What is Open Alex MCP?

It is a professional Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for author disambiguation and institution resolution using the OpenAlex.org API. It provides tools for author search, work discovery, topic analysis, and source lookup, targeting researchers, librarians, and AI agents.

How to use Open Alex MCP?

Install Python 3.10+, clone the repository, create a virtual environment, and install the package with pip install -e .. Run the server with ./run_alex_mcp.sh. Configure an MCP-compatible client (e.g., Claude Desktop) by adding a JSON entry pointing command to the script. The server exposes tools such as disambiguate_author, search_authors, get_author_profile, resolve_institution, search_works, get_work_details, search_topics, analyze_topics, and search_sources.

Key features of Open Alex MCP

  • ML-powered author disambiguation with confidence scoring
  • Institution name and abbreviation resolution
  • ORCID integration for highest‑accuracy matching
  • Career stage determination and metrics
  • Multiple ranked candidates for automated decision‑making
  • Built with FastMCP following MCP best practices

Use cases of Open Alex MCP

  • Disambiguating an author’s identity when multiple researchers share a name
  • Expanding institutional abbreviations (e.g., MIT → Massachusetts Institute of Technology)
  • Searching scholarly works with filters by author, year, source type, or topic
  • Retrieving detailed profiles and publication lists for a specific author
  • Analyzing a text’s title/abstract to identify research topics and concepts
