### Description (declared)

# Edison Scientific MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for interacting with the [Edison Scientific platform](https://platform.futurehouse.org/) (former FutureHouse). This server provides simple, LLM-tailored tools to access Edison Scientific's AI agents for scientific research, chemistry tasks, and literature search.

## Features

- **Chemistry Agent (PHOENIX/MOLECULES)**: Synthesis planning, molecule design, and cheminformatics
- **Quick Search Agent (CROW/LITERATURE)**: Concise scientific answers with citations
- **Precedent Search Agent (OWL/PRECEDENT)**: Determine if anyone has done something in science
- **Deep Search Agent (FALCON/LITERATURE)**: Long reports with many sources for literature reviews
- **Data Analysis Agent (FINCH/ANALYSIS)**: Analyze datasets, perform statistical analysis, and generate insights
- **Task Continuation**: Continue previous tasks with follow-up questions
- **Multiple Transports**: Support for stdio, HTTP, and SSE transports
