### Description (declared)

# Semantic Scholar MCP Server

[![smithery badge](https://smithery.ai/badge/semantic-scholar-fastmcp-mcp-server)](https://smithery.ai/server/semantic-scholar-fastmcp-mcp-server)

A FastMCP server implementation for the Semantic Scholar API, providing comprehensive access to academic paper data, author information, and citation networks.

## Project Structure

The project has been refactored into a modular structure for better maintainability:

```
semantic-scholar-server/
├── semantic_scholar/            # Main package
│   ├── __init__.py             # Package initialization
│   ├── server.py               # Server setup and main functionality
│   ├── mcp.py                  # Centralized FastMCP instance definition
│   ├── config.py               # Configuration classes
│   ├── utils/                  # Utility modules
│   │   ├── __init__.py
│   │   ├── errors.py           # Error handling
│   │   └── http.py             # HTTP client and rate limiting
│   ├── api/                    # API endpoints
│       ├── __init__.py
│       ├── papers.py           # Paper-related endpoints
│       ├── authors.py          # Author-related endpoints
│       └── recommendations.py  # Recommendation endpoints
├── run.py                      # Entry point script
```

This structure:

- Separates concerns into logical modules
- Makes the codebase easier to understand and maintain
- Allows for better testing and future extensions
- Keeps related functionality grouped together
- Centralizes the FastMCP instance to avoid circular imports
