Nothing to run from here
Allen Brain is installed from its publisher's own source and answers where it runs, so this marketplace is not in the path of a single call. There is no address here to send one to, and a panel that pretended otherwise would be showing you an answer we made up. Install it and call it from your own client — the Installation tab has the entry for each one.

What it does
Gene expression experiments and the brain structure ontology from the Allen Institute's Brain…
Quickstart
# 1 — add it to Claude Code
claude mcp add --scope user --transport http allen-brain-mcp https://gateway.pipeworx.io/allen-brain/mcp
# 2 — ask your agent for something these tools do
# allen_search_genes, allen_structures, allen_expression_datasets
Allen Brain costs nothing on mcprush: there is no plan to choose here, no cap to set and nothing mcprush can bill you for.

Installation
Where are you running it?
Every route below installs the same thing and ends at the same approval screen. Nothing here runs on your machine and nothing runs on ours: this server answers at its publisher’s own address, and what you install is the connection straight to it.
Claude Codedeclared by this listing
This is a public server: it answers at its publisher’s own address and this marketplace is not in the path. Claude Code registers it in one command; --scope user makes it available in every project. The transport below is http, as the publisher's own manifest declares it.

Free on mcprush, and it answers at its publisher’s own address: this marketplace is not in the path, so there is no key of ours to hold and no card to add.
What it writes
One config entry pointing straight at the publisher’s own address — this marketplace is not in the path, and nothing from this listing executes on your machine.

Look up genes in the Allen Brain Atlas gene catalog by symbol/acronym, name substring, or Entrez ID. AUTHORITATIVE for resolving a gene to the Allen internal gene id and organism that the atlas expression data is keyed on — note the atlas holds mouse and human as SEPARATE gene records with the same-but-differently-cased acronym (Gabra1 vs GABRA1), and the expression datasets attached to each diffe
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| acronym | string | no | Exact gene symbol, e.g. "Gabra1" (mouse) or "GABRA1" (human). Case matters for the exact match; matching is retried case-insensitively and the response says which casing hit. |
| name_contains | string | no | Substring of the gene name, e.g. "dopamine receptor". Case-insensitive. |
| entrez_id | number | no | NCBI Entrez Gene ID, e.g. 14394. |
| organism | string | no | Filter results to "mouse", "human", or omit for both. |
| num_rows | number | no | Rows to return, 1-200 (default 25). |
| start_row | number | no | 0-based offset for paging (default 0). |
Query the Allen Brain Atlas structure ontology — the canonical hierarchy of named brain regions (Field CA1, Primary visual area, Substantia nigra) with their acronyms, colors, parent structure, and full root-to-leaf structure_id_path. AUTHORITATIVE for resolving a brain-region name or acronym to the structure ID that Allen expression, connectivity and reference-space data are annotated against, an
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| acronym | string | no | Exact structure acronym, e.g. "CA1", "VISp", "SNr". |
| name_contains | string | no | Substring of the structure name, e.g. "hippocamp", "visual area". Case-insensitive. |
| structure_id | number | no | Allen structure id, e.g. 382 (Field CA1). |
| graph_id | number | no | Structure graph to search. 1 = adult mouse brain (default), 10 = human brain, 17 = developing mouse. |
| num_rows | number | no | Rows to return, 1-200 (default 25). |
| start_row | number | no | 0-based offset for paging (default 0). |
List the Allen Brain Atlas in-situ hybridization expression experiments (SectionDataSets) for a gene — which atlas product they belong to (Mouse Brain, Developing Mouse, Human Brain, Mouse Spinal Cord), plane of section (coronal/sagittal), section thickness, and the dataset id used to fetch images and per-structure expression. AUTHORITATIVE for "where in the brain is gene X expressed" and for find
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| gene_acronym | string | yes | Gene symbol, e.g. "Gabra1" (mouse) or "GABRA1" (human). Casing selects the species record; both are tried and the response says which matched. |
| plane_of_section | string | no | Optional filter: "coronal" or "sagittal". Omit for both — filtering can empty an otherwise non-empty result. |
| product_id | number | no | Optional Allen product id filter (1 = Mouse Brain ISH, 3 = Developing Mouse Brain). Omit unless you need one product; the response always reports the unfiltered total. |
| include_failed | boolean | no | Include experiments Allen flagged as failed QC (default false). |
| num_rows | number | no | Rows to return, 1-200 (default 25). |
| start_row | number | no | 0-based offset for paging (default 0). |

—Grade not published
No rule-by-rule report on file for this release
Two independent axes, because powerful and malicious are different questions. The grade is threat only. The capability level is blast radius, and it is never a penalty on the grade — it is priced as one subtract-only term in the score, where you can see it.
This listing is an address its publisher runs, and you connect to it directly — this marketplace is not in the path. The scanner reads packages and public source, and an address is neither: the repository linked on this page is where this record was collected from, not a copy of what the address serves, so it is not graded in its place. So there is no grade — not a withheld one, an unmeasured one.
Release history
This is an address its publisher runs: which release it serves is theirs to choose, so there is nothing here to pin. The history below is for reading; the current release on file is 0.1.1.

Who can review
One review per account, from a signed-in account that does not publish this listing. Nothing else is asked — you can say what you think before you install it. Publishers can reply once per review, and a review can be edited or deleted by whoever wrote it.
Sign in to write one
Any signed-in account that does not publish Allen Brain can review it, once — before installing it or after. A review from an account that has installed it is marked as one.
No reviews yet
Nobody has reviewed this listing. The rating on the card is the mean of the reviews written here and nothing else, so there is no rating until somebody writes the first — which takes a signed-in account that does not publish it, and nothing else.
