<!-- --8<-- [start:intro] -->

An MCP server that wraps [ATLAS AMI](https://ami.in2p3.fr) (ATLAS Metadata
Interface) and the PMG cross-section database, exposing them as tools for LLMs.
Designed for ATLAS physicists who need to discover MC samples, look up
cross-sections and filter efficiencies, and validate PMG hashtag
classifications.

<!-- --8<-- [start:what-it-does] -->

## What it does

`ami-mcp` lets Claude (or any MCP-compatible LLM) query ATLAS metadata directly:

- **Discover samples**: search for MC datasets by PMG hashtag classification
  (WeakBoson/Vjets/Baseline), by name pattern, or by arbitrary AMI query
- **Look up metadata**: retrieve cross-sections, filter efficiencies, k-factors,
  dataset provenance, and AMI processing tag info
- **Query cross-section DB**: look up DSID entries in the PMG xsec database
  files (PMGxsecDB_mc16.txt, etc.)
- **Validate samples**: check hashtag classifications and compare metadata
  against the PMG cross-section database
- **General queries**: execute arbitrary AMI command strings formulated by the
  LLM using the `ami://query-language` resource as a guide

## Installation

```bash
pip install ami-mcp
```

Or with pixi (recommended for ATLAS facilities):

```bash
pixi add ami-mcp
```

## Requirements

- Python 3.10 or 3.11 (pyAMI requires `<3.12`)
- A valid VOMS proxy (`voms-proxy-init -voms atlas`)
- Grid CA certificates (available on CVMFS at ATLAS sites)
