MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for Addgene - The Plasmid Repository

This server implements the Model Context Protocol (MCP) for Addgene, providing a standardized interface for accessing the world's largest repository of plasmid data. MCP enables AI assistants and agents to search, filter, and retrieve comprehensive plasmid information through structured interfaces.

The server provides direct access to Addgene's plasmid repository containing thousands of research-ready plasmids, complete with detailed metadata, sequence information, and availability data. Perfect for molecular biology research, synthetic biology, and genetic engineering applications.

The Addgene repository contains:

- **Plasmid Search**: Search through thousands of research plasmids with advanced filtering
- **Sequence Information**: Access to plasmid sequences in multiple formats (SnapGene, GenBank, FASTA)
- **Metadata Access**: Complete plasmid information including depositor, purpose, maps, and services
- **Popular Plasmids**: Access to trending and highly-cited plasmids in the research community
