### Description (declared)

# Battery MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol server that provides battery materials validation capabilities. This server enables LLMs to verify invented bettery materials are novel and valid or not.

> [!CAUTION]
> This server can access local/internal IP addresses and may represent a security risk. Exercise caution when using this MCP server to ensure this does not expose any sensitive data.

## Available Tools

### `search_material`
Searches and returns relevant battery materials from the database.

**Parameters:**
- `formula` (string, required): Formula query for battery materials (e.g., "LiCoO2")
- `n` (integer, optional): Number of results to return (default: 5, min: 1, max: 100)

---

### `verify_input_material`
Validates whether a material exists in the database.

**Parameters:**
- `original_material` (string, required): Material formula to validate (e.g., "LiFePO4")

---

### `battery_material_validation`
Parses and validates battery materials from a query, comparing them against a reference material.

**Parameters:**
- `original_material` (string, required): Reference battery material (e.g., "LiCoO2")
- `query` (string, required): Comma-separated list of proposed materials (e.g., "Li2B4O7, Li1.06Ti2O4")

## Installation

This MCP server requires API key from [materials project](https://next-gen.materialsproject.org/), you can get api key and use it with env variable `MP_API_KEY`

```
export MP_API_KEY=
```

### Using uv (recommended)

When using [`uv`](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/) no specific installation is needed. We will
use [`uvx`](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/guides/tools/) to directly run *[battery-mcp](https://github.com/nguyenhoangthuan99/battery-mcp.git)*.

### Using PIP

Alternatively you can install `battery-mcp` via pip:

```
pip install battery-mcp
```

After installation, you can run it as a script using:

```
python -m battery-mcp
```

### Running with streamable-http

You can also deploy mcp as http server with streamable-http transport proto…
