**BioCite-MCP** is an advanced Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that acts as a real-time bridge between LLMs and academic literature databases (Europe PMC & Crossref). It eliminates citation hallucinations by forcing AI models to retrieve verified, peer-reviewed paper metadata and real DOIs directly within their workflow.

## 🌟 Key Features 
 
### 🔍 Literature Discovery 
- **`search_literature`**: Query Europe PMC for real biological papers. Returns structured metadata including DOIs and abstracts. 
- **`find_related_papers`**: Discovers semantically related research using Europe PMC's Recommendations engine with an automated Citations/References fallback. 
 
### 📝 Citation & Formatting 
- **`resolve_citation`**: Converts any DOI into publication-ready citation strings (APA or Nature style). 
- **`export_bibtex`**: Retrieves professional BibTeX entries directly via Crossref content negotiation. 
 
### 🛡️ Manuscript Auditing & Support 
- **`audit_manuscript`**: Scans your text for DOIs to verify them and flags potential citations that lack DOIs. 
- **`summarize_paper`**: Fetches abstracts and prepares high-quality summarization prompts optimized for LLMs like Claude. 
- **`check_duplicate_citations`**: Uses fuzzy matching (`rapidfuzz`) to identify and group duplicate research in your lists. 
 
### 📚 Integration 
- **`push_to_zotero`**: Seamlessly add verified papers to your Zotero library via the Web API.
