Nothing to run from here
PubMed 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
Search PubMed/Europe PMC, fetch articles, full text, citations and MeSH terms.
Quickstart
# 1 — add it to Claude Code
claude mcp add --scope user --transport http pubmed-caseyjhand-com-pubmed-mcp https://pubmed.caseyjhand.com/mcp
# 2 — ask your agent for something these tools do
# pubmed_search_articles, pubmed_fetch_articles, pubmed_fetch_fulltext and 8 more
PubMed 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, read from the address; if the publisher says otherwise, swap that one word.
claude mcp add --scope user --transport http pubmed-caseyjhand-com-pubmed-mcp https://pubmed.caseyjhand.com/mcpReconnect, or start a new session, and the tools appear in the model’s tool list.
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.

Search PubMed with full query syntax, filters, and date ranges. Returns PMIDs and optional brief summaries. Supports field-specific filters (author, journal, MeSH terms), common filters (language, species, free full text), and pagination via offset for paging through large result sets.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| query | string | yes | PubMed search query (supports full NCBI syntax) |
| maxResults | integer | no | Maximum results to return |
| offset | integer | no | Result offset for pagination (0-based). PubMed serves at most the first 9999 records of a result set, so this caps at 9998; narrow the query or add filters to reach anything beyond it. |
| sort | string | no | Sort order: relevance (default), pub_date (newest first), author, or journal |
| dateRange | object | no | Filter by date range. The filter is applied only when both minDate and maxDate are non-empty; either one empty disables the entire date range. |
| publicationTypes | array | no | Filter by publication type (e.g. "Review", "Clinical Trial", "Meta-Analysis"). Multiple values are OR'd — any match qualifies. |
| author | string | no | Filter by author name (e.g. "Smith J") |
| journal | string | no | Filter by journal name |
| meshTerms | array | no | Filter by MeSH terms. Multiple terms are AND'd — all must match. |
| language | string | no | Filter by language (e.g. "english") |
| hasAbstract | boolean | no | Only include articles with abstracts |
| freeFullText | boolean | no | Only include free full text articles |
| species | string | no | Filter by species |
| summaryCount | integer | no | Fetch brief summaries for top N results (0 = PMIDs only). Above the 50 cap, pass the remaining PMIDs to pubmed_fetch_articles. |
Fetch full article metadata by PubMed IDs. Returns detailed article information including abstract, authors, journal, MeSH terms.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| pmids | array | yes | PubMed IDs to fetch |
| includeMesh | boolean | no | Include MeSH terms |
| includeGrants | boolean | no | Include grant information |
Fetch full-text articles from PubMed Central with structured sections and references. When PMC misses, transparently falls back to Europe PMC fullTextXML (structured JATS for records with a PMC counterpart), then to Unpaywall — publisher-hosted or institutional open-access copies as HTML-as-Markdown or PDF-as-text. Provide exactly one of pmcids (PMC IDs directly), pmids (PubMed IDs, auto-res

|---|---|---|---|
| pmids | array | yes | PubMed IDs to cite |
| format | no | Citation format(s) to generate — single style as a string or multiple as an array. Allowed values: apa, mla, bibtex, ris, vancouver. |
Find articles related to a source article — similar content (similar), articles citing this one (cited_by), or articles this one cites (references). Uses NCBI ELink as the primary source; falls back to Europe PMC then OpenAlex when NCBI is unavailable.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| pmid | string | yes | Source PubMed ID |
| relationship | string | no | Relationship type: similar (content-based), cited_by (articles citing this one), references (articles this one cites) |

Spell-check a query and get NCBI's suggested correction. Useful for refining search queries.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| query | string | yes | PubMed search query to spell-check |
Search and explore the MeSH (Medical Subject Headings) controlled vocabulary. Returns descriptor records with tree numbers, scope notes, and entry terms, plus pagination via offset for paging past the maxResults cap.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| query | string | yes | MeSH descriptor name or free-text term to look up |
| maxResults | integer | no | Maximum results |
| offset | integer | no | Result offset for pagination (0-based). Pass the nextOffset from the previous response to get the following page; the exact-descriptor match is pinned to the first page only. |
| includeDetails | boolean | no | Fetch full MeSH records (scope notes, tree numbers, entry terms) |
Look up PubMed IDs from partial bibliographic citations. Useful when you have a reference (journal, year, volume, page, author) and need the PMID — deterministic citation matching, more reliable than free-text search for structured references. Each citation must include at least journal or year (ECitMatch primary-keys on journal+volume+page; author-only or volume-only inputs guarantee no match); m
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| citations | array | yes | Citations to look up. More fields = better match accuracy. |
Convert between article identifiers (DOI, PMID, PMCID). Accepts up to 50 IDs of a single type per request. Only resolves articles indexed in PubMed Central — for articles not in PMC, use pubmed_search_articles instead.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| ids | array | yes | Article identifiers to convert. All IDs must be the same type. DOIs: "10.1093/nar/gks1195", PMIDs: "23193287", PMCIDs: "PMC3531190" (the "PMC" prefix is optional — bare digits like "3531190" are also |
| idType | string | yes | The type of IDs being submitted. Required so the API can unambiguously resolve them. |
Search Europe PMC, a broad open-access biomedical corpus. Surfaces preprints (source: PPR), patents (source: PAT), Agricola (source: AGR), plus everything in PubMed (MED) and PMC. Use when additional coverage is needed — preprints and EPMC-only OA records are the typical recovery. Paginate via cursorMark. Defaults to MED, PMC, and PPR; pass sources to include PAT / AGR. Abstr
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| query | string | yes | Europe PMC search query. Supports field tokens like AUTH:"<name>", JOURNAL:"<title>", TITLE:"<words>", PUB_YEAR:[2020 TO 2024], DOI:"...", EXT_ID:<pmid> AND SRC:MED, PMCID:PMC<digits>. I |
| pageSize | integer | no | Results per page. Max 100 per EPMC API. |
| cursorMark | string | no | Pagination cursor. Use * (default) for the first page; pass the previous response's nextCursorMark for subsequent pages. |
| sources | array | no | Filter to specific EPMC sources. Defaults to MED, PMC, PPR when omitted. Pass an explicit array including PAT or AGR to broaden coverage. Allowed values: MED, PMC, PPR, PAT, AGR. |
| resultType | string | no | core returns abstract, IDs, dates, license; lite is a smaller payload with IDs and titles only. |

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. 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 2.10.4.

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 PubMed 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.
