What MCP Actually Means for Us

MCP (Model Context Protocol) is Anthropic's standard for connecting AI to tools.

Current state:

  • We have PubMedTool, ClinicalTrialsTool, BioRxivTool
  • They're Python classes with search() methods

What we need:

  • Wrap these as MCP servers
  • So Claude Desktop, Cursor, or any MCP client can use them

Why this matters:

  • Judges will test if our tools work with Claude Desktop
  • No MCP = disqualified from Track 2
