MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for Biothings.io

This server implements the Model Context Protocol (MCP) for BioThings, providing a standardized interface for accessing and manipulating biomedical data. MCP enables AI assistants and agents to access specialized biomedical knowledge through structured interfaces to authoritative data sources. Supported BioThings data sources include:

- [mygene.info](https://mygene.info) — Gene annotation and query service
- [myvariant.info](https://myvariant.info) — Variant annotation and query service
- [mychem.info](https://mychem.info) — Chemical compound annotation and query service

## About MCP (Model Context Protocol)

MCP is a protocol that bridges the gap between AI systems and specialized domain knowledge. It enables:

- **Structured Access**: Direct connection to authoritative biomedical data sources
- **Natural Language Queries**: Simplified interaction with specialized databases
- **Type Safety**: Strong typing and validation through biothings-typed-client
- **AI Integration**: Seamless integration with AI assistants and agents

## Available API Interfaces

This server provides dedicated API interfaces for different BioThings data types, leveraging the `biothings-typed-client` library. These interfaces are im…
