About Arxivloader MCP Server and Client

This project provides an MCP (Microservice Communication Protocol) server and client setup for fetching research papers from the arXiv. The MCP server processes queries and fetches relevant research papers, while the client communicates with the server using the MCP protocol.

Overview

What is Arxivloader MCP Server and Client?

The Arxivloader MCP Server and Client is a server-client setup that enables users to fetch research papers from arXiv using the Microservice Communication Protocol (MCP). The server processes queries and retrieves relevant papers, while the client communicates via MCP and provides a simple Streamlit web interface. The system integrates LangChain and Groq for enhanced query handling. It is intended for researchers, developers, or anyone needing to access arXiv papers programmatically.

How to use Arxivloader MCP Server and Client?

Install Python 3.8+, clone the repository, install dependencies from requirements.txt, and configure a .env file for Groq and MCP settings. Start the MCP server by running python arxivloader.py, then launch the Streamlit client with streamlit run client.py. Enter a query (e.g., "Medical Claim Processing OR Health Insurance Billing") in the UI to fetch and display paper details such as title, authors, and publication date.

Key features of Arxivloader MCP Server and Client

  • MCP protocol for efficient server-client communication.
  • Fetches research papers from arXiv based on user queries.
  • Streamlit web interface for simple query input and result display.
  • Integrates Groq and LangChain for advanced query handling.
