med-lit-mcp is an MCP server for medical literature reviews. It takes a review through four deliberate stages, **search → screening → fetch → wiki**, and ends with an evidence-linked wiki you can open in Obsidian.

Your MCP client's model does the reading and writing (screening decisions, entity extraction, syntheses). med-lit-mcp searches the databases (PubMed, PMC, OpenAlex, Europe PMC, Semantic Scholar, Scopus), stores everything, checks the model's work against the source text, and exports the wiki. Every screening decision, extracted mention and synthesis citation must be a verbatim quote or a reference to the stored text.

- **Clients:** Hermes (terminal and Desktop), Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, pi and ChatGPT desktop Work/Codex.
- **Platforms:** Linux, macOS and Windows.
- **Requirements:** a contact email (`NCBI_EMAIL`). No embedding endpoint, model API key or build step.
- **Bots:** with Hermes, a scheduled bot can keep a review up to date by screening new articles and adding them to the wiki.
