From the README

scigantic-mcp A Model Context Protocol server that exposes the Scigantic catalog of public scientific data archives to any MCP client. It is built to drop into Kiro for Life Sciences alongside its domain database servers. Where each Kiro server wraps one domain's APIs (genomics, proteomics, structural, …), Scigantic is the cross-domain launchpad: about 6,900 curated public archives spanning every domain, each with an LLM-ready schema card (file format, columns, sample rows/headers, inlined READMEs/data dictionaries, and a copy-paste starter cell) so an agent can understand a dataset's structure before downloading anything. It is discovery-only and zero-config — every tool calls public, read-only Scigantic endpoints, so there is no API key to set up. Since 0.3.0 it also carries six surechembl_* tools for patent chemistry, backed by SureChEMBL (EMBL-EBI, 31M compounds extracted from 45M patents) through the scigantic-surechembl library: look a compound up by any identifier, list the patents that mention it, read a patent, list the compounds named in it, search patents with Solr syntax, and run structure searches. Also public, read-only, no key. SureChEMBL replaced its REST API in November 2026. Since 0.3.2 these tools run on scigantic-surechembl 0.4, the port to the new API.…

Nice for visibility, but GitHub marks README links nofollow, so it doesn't pass authority. Use the HTML badge on your site as well.
