Connector operation reference
Look up exact operation names, required fields, defaults and example calls. To choose a data source, start with the database catalog. Expand the Connector family you intend to call; availability and credentials must be configured separately.
Where the example calls run
The host object is supplied by Open-Science's agent execution environment. The JavaScript below is an agent-side call fragment, not a standalone Node.js program and not a method on the public Task SDK client. Ask the agent to load the relevant Connector instructions and use the matching operation. A framework may expose a Python bridge instead of this JavaScript form.
First enable the Connector in Settings → Connectors, configure any required credentials, and grant access to the selected Specialist if applicable. The call still follows the conversation's permission policy. Public Node.js integrations can manage Connector settings with the Task SDK, but cannot obtain this host by importing that client.
Read a result before chaining calls
Example Pass returned PubMed IDs to a metadata lookup
For example, ask: Use PubMed to search for PRISMA reporting guidance; return the total match count and five PMIDs. The operation search_articles returns a total and a page of identifiers. Feed those returned PMIDs to get_article_metadata to obtain titles, authors and DOI links. An empty page, a truncated result and an authentication error need different handling.
| Returned information | Use it for |
|---|---|
| Total match count and returned rows | Distinguish a small page from the complete result set |
truncated, records_truncated or family-specific completeness flags | Decide whether to page, narrow the query or retrieve the rest |
not_found, missing, not_processed | Identify unresolved inputs and retry only appropriate items |
| DOI, accession, source URL and release/build | Retain the identity and source needed for subsequent queries |
| Full-text status or license note | Decide whether text was retrieved and can be reused |
Return field names differ by operation. The descriptions and downloadable schemas below specify each contract; the table is not a universal JSON response. Use the right-hand family list to jump, then expand that family's parameters. Searching for an operation name also opens its containing group.
Read failures separately from empty results. In v0.30.2, CellGuide marker/source/tissue requests surface fetch failures instead of treating them as empty evidence; an absent optional data file can still be empty. OLS relation queries reject incomplete pagination and invalid responses. A service error is not evidence that a cell type has no markers or an ontology term has no related terms.
Operation inputs
Expand one Connector at a time. Required fields are marked required; this reference and download use the Open-Science v1.0.5 schema. A nested input.required list is authoritative; a legacy top-level required list may be absent. Consult the complete downloadable registry for nested JSON schemas, full return descriptions and agent-side call examples. Do not pass a generic id when a tool expects accessions, cids, rs_id or another namespace-specific field.

list_ontologies
List ontologies in the EBI Ontology Lookup Service (OLS4). With ontology_ids (e.g. ["efo","cl","chebi","go","mondo"]): fetch structured metadata records for just those ontologies; unknown IDs are reported in not_found. Without: the complete OLS4 catalogue (~250 ontologies, paginated fully and count-verified). Returns: {records:[{ontology_id, title, version, status, num_terms, ...}], not_found:[...]} for an ID list, or {records:[...], total_elements, complete} for the full catalogue.

const result = await host.mcp("genes", "list_ontologies", {"ontology_ids": ["efo", "go", "mondo"]})
search_ontology_terms
Search ontology terms by label/synonym across one or more OLS4 ontologies. Typical uses: find an EFO ID for a disease name (ontologies=["efo"]), Cell Ontology terms for a cell type (["cl"]), ChEBI terms for a chemical (["chebi"]), GO terms by name (["go"]) — or search all ontologies at once. Args: query (term label, synonym, or identifier); ontologies (lowercase IDs to restrict to; None searches every ontology); exact (whole-string match); include_obsolete (default False); max_results (ranked by OLS relevance). Returns {query, total_found, n_returned, truncated, terms:[{curie, iri, label, short_form, ontology, description, type, is_defining_ontology}]}.

get_ontology_term
Fetch one ontology term's details, or its complete related-term set. With relation=None: full term record (label, synonyms, description, obsolete flag, direct parents). With a relation: the COMPLETE, fully paginated set of related terms — e.g. relation="hierarchicalChildren" for direct children incl. part_of etc., "descendants"/"hierarchicalDescendants" for the whole subtree, "ancestors"/"hierarchicalAncestors", "parents", "children". Retrieval is count-verified against the API's own total. Args: ontology (lowercase, e.g. "efo","go","cl","chebi"); term_id (CURIE "EFO:0000305"/"GO:0006281" or full IRI); relation (None or one of the listed); include_parents (include direct parent refs when relation is None). Returns: relation=None {curie, iri, label, ontology, short_form, synonyms, description, is_obsolete, has_children, parents}; otherwise {root, relation, total_elements, term_count, terms:[...]}.

get_go_annotations
Retrieve GO annotations for a UniProt gene product from QuickGO (complete, count-verified). Args: uniprot_accession (e.g. "P04637", prefix optional); aspect (omit for all aspects, or one of biological_process/molecular_function/cellular_component); evidence (None/all, a preset "experimental_manual"=manually-assigned experimental evidence, "automatic_iea"=electronic/IEA, or an explicit ECO code like "ECO:0000314"; three-letter GO evidence codes like IDA/IEA are NOT accepted — QuickGO silently ignores goEvidence, filter must use ECO codes); taxon_id (optional NCBI taxon, e.g. 9606); include_term_names (hydrate each record with GO term name/aspect/obsolete via one batched ontology lookup); max_records (cap on records; full set still retrieved and summarized; truncated flags the cap). Returns {gene_product, total_annotations, n_records, complete, truncated, distinct_go_ids (across ALL annotations), records:[{go_id, go_aspect, qualifier, go_evidence, eco_id, reference, assigned_by, date, ...}]}.

search_uniprot_entries
Discover active UniProtKB protein entries by exact gene name (including synonyms), protein-name phrase and/or exact organism_id (NCBI taxonomy ID, not descendants). At least one of these filters is required; supplied filters are combined with AND. Optional reviewed=true selects Swiss-Prot, false selects TrEMBL; omitting it includes both. No organism or reviewed default. Text uses UniProt tokenized phrase matching, not arbitrary substring matching or raw query syntax; quotes, backslashes, wildcards and control characters are rejected. Returns one bounded page in accession order, not a complete protein set. For the next page, pass next_cursor as cursor with identical filters and page_size. Cursors are opaque, not offsets or durable snapshots; restart if UniProt rejects a stale cursor.
Supply at least one listed search filter; consult the downloadable schema for complete combination rules.

get_uniprot_entries
Fetch UniProtKB records for a list of primary or secondary accessions (batched OR-queries first; unresolved aliases use a direct per-accession fallback). Three modes: fields given → token-lean tabular retrieval of just those UniProt fields (e.g. ["accession","id","protein_name","gene_names","organism_name","length","sequence"]); format is ignored. format="fasta" → per-accession FASTA sequences. format="txt" → per-accession full UniProt flat-file text (complete annotation; can be very large — prefer fields). Args: accessions (e.g. ["P04637","P38398"]); format ("fasta"/"txt", ignored when fields given); fields (optional UniProt REST field names for tabular mode). Returns: fields mode {accessions, fields, n_records, records:[{<column>:value}]}; fasta/txt mode {accessions, format, n_found, missing, records:{accession:text}} — missing lists accessions UniProt returned no record for.

submit_uniprot_id_mapping
Submit up to 100,000 identifiers for UniProt batch ID mapping. from_db/to_db are exact UniProt API database names (e.g. Gene_Name, GeneID, Ensembl, RefSeq_Protein, UniProtKB_AC-ID -> UniProtKB; UniProtKB_AC-ID -> Ensembl or GeneID). Valid pairs are defined by https://rest.uniprot.org/configure/idmapping/fields; unsupported pairs fail upstream. taxon_id is optional only for Gene_Name; specify it to disambiguate species. IDs must be individual strings without whitespace or separators; case and versions are preserved, exact duplicates submitted once. Pass accessions from search_uniprot_entries as ids with from_db=UniProtKB_AC-ID. Sends one POST, never automatically retries or polls. Save job_id, then use get_uniprot_id_mapping_status and get_uniprot_id_mapping_results. UniProt expires results after up to 7 days; cancellation or app shutdown stops local requests, not the remote job. No local job cache or remote cancellation/deletion API is provided. If submission loses its response, a job may exist; do not blindly resubmit.

get_uniprot_id_mapping_status
Check an existing UniProt ID mapping job once. NEW/RUNNING means poll this tool later (at least 3 seconds apart); FINISHED means fetch all pages with get_uniprot_id_mapping_results. Upstream ERROR is normalized to FAILED, a terminal job failure, not unmatched IDs. HTTP 400/500 job failures are read without automatic retries; other HTTP failures (including unknown/expired jobs) propagate. Does not submit a new job or automatically poll.

map_reactome_pathways
Map gene symbols or UniProt accessions to Reactome pathways (AnalysisService token workflow). Args: identifiers (gene symbols if id_type="symbol", UniProt accessions if "uniprot"; no duplicates); id_type ("symbol"/"uniprot"); species (default "Homo sapiens"); resource (AnalysisService molecule-resource view "TOTAL" default; "UNIPROT" restricts to protein-level mappings); include_disease (service default True); compact (True → per-identifier low-level pathways only {stId,name,species} + reactome release version; False → full deterministic result: per-identifier complete pathway sets with entity/reaction statistics (p-values, FDR, found/total) and batch summary incl. identifiers_not_found). Returns: compact {tool, reactome_version, id_type, species, n_input, genes:{identifier:{found, n_lowlevel_pathways, pathways}}}; full adds per-pathway statistics and batch_summary. Maps identifiers to pathways in the requested species, without projecting them to human. Use a supported scientific name, such as Homo sapiens or Mus musculus; the downloadable schema lists all supported names. Empty, unsupported or mismatched species are errors. found and n_found indicate identifier recognition, not pathway membership: a recognized identifier can have zero pathways. Compact mode contains only low-level pathways.

list_enrichment_sources
List the g:Profiler enrichment sources and their current data versions for one organism. Sources are organism-dependent and include namespaces such as GO:BP, GO:MF, GO:CC, KEGG, Reactome, and WikiPathways when available. g:Profiler stores limited query metadata for service operation; this read-only lookup does not submit a gene list.

enrich_gene_set
Run g:Profiler g:GOSt enrichment for a gene set across GO, Reactome, KEGG, WikiPathways, and other organism-supported sources. Supports an explicit organism, custom statistical background, under-representation testing, and g:Profiler multiple-testing correction. Unmapped, ambiguous, and duplicate identifiers are returned in metadata instead of being silently discarded.

list_enrichr_libraries
List the current Enrichr gene-set libraries and their coverage statistics for one supported Enrichr deployment. The human deployment covers human and mouse libraries; other supported organisms use their dedicated deployments. Use this before enrich_gene_set_enrichr to select libraries for transcription-factor, perturbation, drug, disease, tissue, or cell-type analysis.

enrich_gene_set_enrichr
Run Enrichr enrichment for gene symbols or identifiers accepted by selected Enrichr libraries. This complements g:Profiler with transcription-factor, perturbation, drug, disease, tissue, and cell-type libraries. A custom background uses the Speedrichr API and is currently supported only for the human deployment. Enrichr does not report unmapped identifiers, so mapping_status is always not_reported_by_enrichr.

Genomes
Show operations and parameters
blast_submit
Submit one nucleotide or protein sequence to the public NCBI BLAST service for asynchronous similarity search. Set molecule_type explicitly because a protein made only of A/C/G/T is otherwise ambiguous. Returns a RID and the server estimate; call blast_status no more often than once per minute, then blast_results after READY. The sequence is sent to NCBI and is not cached locally; a lost submit response raises blast_submission_unknown and must not be retried automatically. Space all BLAST requests by at least 10 seconds and all requests for the same RID by at least 60 seconds. Keep the RID to resume after restart. NCBI generally retains results for 36 hours; this is not a deletion guarantee. Cancellation, app exit and uninstall stop local requests only; this API has no documented remote cancel/delete operation. No job registry or result cache is added; normal conversation/notebook persistence may retain inputs and outputs.

blast_status
Check one NCBI BLAST RID once. This is a single SearchInfo request and never polls or waits; respect NCBI guidance to wait at least 60 seconds between checks. Returns WAITING, READY, FAILED, or UNKNOWN (unknown or expired RID). Space all BLAST requests by at least 10 seconds and same-RID requests, including results retrieval, by at least 60 seconds.

blast_results
Fetch bounded results for an NCBI BLAST RID. It makes one request and returns ready=false when the job is still waiting; choose json2, xml2, text, or tabular output after blast_status reports READY. Results are capped at 2 MiB and returned verbatim. tabular means NCBI Text + ALIGNMENT_VIEW=Tabular, which may include HTML comments, PRE tags and report headers; it is not pure TSV or CSV. Wait at least 60 seconds after the last request for this RID, including blast_status. No automatic retries.

ensembl_lookup
Look up genes, transcripts, or proteins by stable ID, or genes by symbol. query accepts ENS IDs (versioned allowed), FlyBase/WormBase/yeast IDs, or symbols such as BRAF. query_type: auto (default) tries ID first, then symbol only on explicit absence unless the input is a canonical ENS/LRG ID; id uses only ID lookup; symbol uses only symbol lookup without version normalization. species applies only to symbol lookup (default homo_sapiens) and is not inferred. expand includes transcripts, exons and translations (default false). Invalid requests and service failures raise errors.

ensembl_xrefs
External cross-references of an Ensembl stable ID — the bridge from Ensembl gene/transcript IDs to HGNC, NCBI (EntrezGene), UniProt, OMIM, RefSeq, Expression Atlas and others. Args: stable_id (ENSG.../ENST..., versioned accepted); external_db (optional exact upstream database-name filter, e.g. HGNC, EntrezGene, Uniprot_gn, MIM_GENE, RefSeq_mRNA; omit for all). Returns {stable_id, external_db, n_xrefs, xrefs} — the COMPLETE list (never truncated), sorted by (dbname, primary_id); each row {dbname, db_display_name, primary_id, display_id, description, synonyms, info_type}. Unknown IDs return n_xrefs:0.

ensembl_vep_variant
Predict variant consequences with Ensembl VEP — most-severe-first summary of the (often huge) per-transcript consequence list. Without hgvs_notation, variant_id takes precedence and region/allele/allele_orientation are ignored. Otherwise, supply hgvs_notation or both region and allele. HGVS must not be combined with variant_id, region, allele, or allele_orientation. hgvs_notation accepts genomic, coding, or protein HGVS (e.g. ENST00000366667:c.803C>T); reference versions are passed unchanged. HGVS uses the current species assembly from rest.ensembl.org (no assembly selection or liftover); assembly_name reports the resolved assembly. HGVS requests include hgvs=1 and transcript_version=1: transcript_id is versioned, hgvsc/hgvsp are retained when available. Input reference versions are not verified: version_validation is unchecked. Each HGVS result preserves input_reference_annotations from the complete upstream transcript list independently of max_consequences. matched means exact reference identity excluding the version suffix, not validated parsing or a version match; unknown means no comparable annotation (including unmapped gene symbols or genomic references). HGVS alleles retain the upstream strand, including negative strand; no region normalization is applied. allele does not filter results from the ID route. Args: variant_id (dbSNP rsID rs7412, COSMIC COSV..., or HGMD ID); region (1-based inclusive chrom:start-end on the current species assembly, GRCh38 for human, e.g. 7:140753336-140753336; SNV start==end; insertion start=end+1; explicit strand suffix :1/:-1 accepted; coordinates always refer to the reference genome, including on the negative strand); allele (A/C/G/T replacement sequence, or - for deletion; upstream symbolic alleles INS/DUP/DEL/TDUP are accepted in forward orientation); allele_orientation (forward by default, preserving existing calls: allele is on the reference forward strand regardless of the region suffix; region opts into interpreting allele on the region strand, so :-1 reverse-complements sequence alleles before querying; symbolic alleles on a negative region require forward orientation). Every region request is sent on the forward strand; region results are forward-oriented. A negative-strand gene does not require negative-strand input; species (default homo_sapiens); max_consequences (cap on returned per-transcript rows, default 25; full count in n_transcript_consequences, rows kept are most severe HIGH>MODERATE>LOW>MODIFIER; transcript_consequences_truncated flags the cap). Returns {query, n_results, results:[{input, assembly_name, seq_region_name, start, end, strand, allele_string, most_severe_consequence, genes:[{gene_id, gene_symbol, worst_impact, n_transcripts}], n_transcript_consequences, transcript_consequences_truncated, transcript_consequences:[...], n_regulatory_feature_consequences, n_motif_feature_consequences, colocated_variants:[...]}]}. Each transcript consequence retains variant_allele. n_transcripts counts distinct non-empty transcript IDs per gene across the full list; worst_impact spans all returned upstream alleles, while n_transcript_consequences counts rows. HGVS parsing errors retain the upstream reason; unknown rsIDs raise with the upstream message.

Args: gene_symbol (resolved to a stable ID in species first; pass exactly one of gene_symbol/gene_id); gene_id (ENSG...); homology_type (orthologues default/paralogues/projections); target_species (restrict to one species); target_taxon (NCBI taxon subtree, e.g. 9443 Primates; combinable with target_species, OR semantics); species (source species, default homo_sapiens); max_homologies (row cap default 200; n_total carries the complete count, homologies_truncated flags the cap). Returns {gene_id, gene_symbol, species, homology_type, target_species, target_taxon, n_total, homologies_truncated, homologies}; rows sorted by (species,id) {type, species, id, protein_id, taxonomy_level, method_link_type}. Quirk: the /homology/symbol route stalls — this tool always resolves symbols itself and queries by stable ID.

ensembl_sequence
Fetch sequence from Ensembl — by stable ID (gene/transcript/protein) or by genomic region. Pass EITHER stable_id OR region. Args: stable_id (ENSG.../ENST.../ENSP..., versioned accepted); region (1-based inclusive chrom:start..end or chrom:start-end, GRCh38 for human, max 10Mb); species (for region route, default homo_sapiens; ignored for stable IDs); seq_type (ID route: genomic default/cdna/cds/protein; ignored for regions which always return genomic). This tool returns one sequence: for gene-level cdna/cds/protein requests that resolve to multiple sequences, specify a transcript/protein stable ID instead; max_bytes (payload guard default 400000 — larger sequences have seq omitted; length/sha256/metadata always returned; re-call with larger max_bytes for full text). Returns {found, query, seq_type, id, description, molecule, length, sha256, seq} — length in the unit implied by molecule (bases for dna, residues for protein); seq replaced by seq_omitted when capped; found:false with null fields only when Ensembl explicitly reports the requested stable ID as not found; multiple-sequence requests, incompatible sequence types, and other upstream failures raise errors.

ensembl_overlap_region
List Ensembl features overlapping a genomic region — genes, transcripts, regulatory features (enhancers/promoters), repeats, variants, karyotype bands. Args: region (1-based inclusive chrom:start-end GRCh38, e.g. 7:140719327-140925199; upstream rejects spans >5Mb — split larger); feature (gene default/transcript/exon/cds/regulatory/motif/repeat/variation/structural_variation/band/simple/misc); species (default homo_sapiens); max_features (row cap default 500; n_total carries the complete overlap count, features_truncated flags the cap). Returns {region, species, feature, n_total, features_truncated, features} sorted by (start,id). Row shape varies — genes {id, external_name, biotype, description, start, end, strand, canonical_transcript, ...}; regulatory {id, description, start, end, extended_start/end, ...}. Empty regions return n_total:0.

ncbi_get_assembly_info
Return the exact NCBI genome assembly identity for a versioned GCF/GCA accession, including taxon, assembly name, UCSC synonym, status, and paired RefSeq/GenBank accession. Versionless accessions are rejected to prevent reproducibility and species-compatibility errors.

ncbi_get_sequence_aliases
List sequence names and exact UCSC/RefSeq/GenBank aliases for one versioned NCBI assembly. Optionally resolve one sequence name; ambiguous shared chromosome labels are retained as multiple matches instead of choosing an alt or unlocalized scaffold. Results are a bounded prefix controlled by max_sequences (default 200); use a larger cap when the full assembly report is needed.

ucsc_list_tracks
List data tracks available in a UCSC Genome Browser assembly (leaf tracks only — the queryable ones), optionally filtered. Args: genome (hg38 default/hg19/mm39/danRer11/... ~220 assemblies); filter_text (case-insensitive substring over name/short/long label, e.g. phyloP, TFBS, ClinVar; omit to list everything — hg38 has ~24k leaf tracks, you almost always want a filter); max_tracks (row cap default 200; n_total carries the full match count, tracks_truncated flags the cap). Returns {genome, filter_text, n_total, tracks_truncated, tracks} sorted by track name; each row {track, short_label, long_label, type, group, parent}. Use track with ucsc_track_data. Quirk: first call per genome downloads the full ~17MB listing and caches it for the process.

ucsc_track_data
Fetch raw rows of any UCSC Genome Browser track in a region — the generic escape hatch behind ucsc_conservation / ucsc_tfbs_clusters (gene tracks, ClinVar, GWAS catalog, CpG islands, repeats, ...). Args: track (name from ucsc_list_tracks, e.g. knownGene, cpgIslandExt, clinvarMain); chrom (chr-prefixed, chr7/chrX — UCSC requires the prefix); start (0-based half-open; an Ensembl 1-based start is start-1 here); end (exclusive); genome (default hg38); max_rows (API maxItemsOutput, default 1000; truncated reflects the API's own maxItemsLimit flag). Returns {genome, track, chrom, start, end, track_type, items_returned, truncated, rows} — rows in upstream shape (BED-like {chrom, chromStart, chromEnd, name, score, ...}; wiggle {start, end, value}). Unknown tracks raise. Quirk: for some huge tracks the API caps output itself and points at dataDownloadUrl — echoed when present. Coordinates must be non-negative safe integers, with end > start. Invalid values are rejected, not rounded or clamped to another locus.

ucsc_conservation
Evolutionary conservation summary for a region from UCSC phyloP / phastCons tracks (base-wise scores over multi-species alignments). Args: chrom (chr-prefixed); start (0-based half-open); end (exclusive; span capped at 100000 bp — split larger); genome (default hg38); track (optional; defaults: hg19 phyloP100wayAll, hg38 phyloP100way, mm10 phyloP60wayAll, mm39 phyloP35way; other genomes retain the phyloP100way fallback, which may not exist — specify a score track from ucsc_list_tracks when needed; positive=conserved, negative=fast-evolving; alternatives hg38 phastCons100way, phyloP30way, phastCons30way, phyloP447way, phyloP470way; hg19 phastCons100way); include_values (also return per-base {start,end,value} rows capped at max_values, values_truncated flags the cap; default false = summary only); max_values (per-base cap default 2000). Returns {genome, track, chrom, start, end, span_bp, n_bases_covered, coverage_fraction, mean, min, max} (+values, values_truncated when requested). Stats weighted by each row's base span, clipped to window; uncovered bases lower coverage_fraction, not zero-scored. Non-score tracks raise; an upstream-truncated row list also raises.

ucsc_tfbs_clusters
ENCODE transcription-factor binding site clusters overlapping a region (ChIP-seq peak clusters across hundreds of cell types) — which TFs bind where. Args: chrom (chr-prefixed); start (0-based half-open); end (exclusive); genome (hg38 default track encRegTfbsClustered ENCODE 3, or hg19 wgEncodeRegTfbsClusteredV3; other assemblies raise); max_rows (API maxItemsOutput default 1000; truncated reflects maxItemsLimit). Returns {genome, track, chrom, start, end, items_returned, truncated, n_factors, factors, clusters} — clusters sorted by (chromStart,name) {name (TF symbol e.g. CTCF), chrom, chromStart, chromEnd, score (0-1000), sourceCount (supporting experiments)}; factors is the distinct TF list. Score>=~600 and high sourceCount ~ robust binding. Coordinates must be non-negative safe integers, with end > start. Invalid values are rejected, not rounded or clamped to another locus.

ucsc_chrom_sizes
Chromosome/contig names and sizes of a UCSC assembly — for validating coordinates and iterating regions. Args: genome (default hg38); filter_text (case-insensitive substring on the name, e.g. chr1; omit for all — hg38 has 711 sequences, mostly alt/random/unplaced; primary chromosomes sort first); max_chroms (row cap default 100; n_total carries the full post-filter count, chroms_truncated flags the cap). Returns {genome, filter_text, chrom_count (assembly-wide from the API), n_total, chroms_truncated, chromosomes:[{name, size_bp}]} sorted by size descending.

clustalo_submit
Submit three or more protein, DNA or RNA sequences to EMBL-EBI Job Dispatcher Clustal Omega for asynchronous multiple sequence alignment. Input must be uniquely named FASTA records; the service accepts at most 4000 sequences or 4 MiB. Returns a job_id; keep it and call clustalo_status before clustalo_results. The connector requests clustal_num by default, a Clustal alignment with position numbers, suitable for inspecting conserved sites and downstream evolutionary analysis. EMBL-EBI requests a valid contact email. Set a contact email in Settings → Privacy → Share contact email with research data services. A lost submit response may represent an accepted remote job; do not resubmit automatically. EMBL-EBI stores results for a limited provider-controlled period (documented as up to one week); this is not an app-owned deletion guarantee. Keep the job_id to resume after restart. This connector adds no job registry, result cache or automatic resubmission, and cancellation/app exit only stop local requests. The sequence is sent to EMBL-EBI, and the host may retain tool inputs and returned alignment content in conversation or Notebook persistence. Respect EMBL-EBI fair-use guidance: submit no more than 30 jobs in a batch and wait for processing/results before submitting more; this connector does not enforce cross-call throttling. See https://www.ebi.ac.uk/jdispatcher/docs/webservices/ for the official API contract.

clustalo_status
Check one EMBL-EBI Clustal Omega job once. This is a single status request and never polls or waits; call it again after at least 10 seconds until FINISHED, ERROR, FAILURE or NOT_FOUND. Keep the job_id when resuming after a restart.

clustalo_results
Fetch one bounded Clustal Omega clustal_num alignment file for a FINISHED job. Pass the same outfmt returned by clustalo_submit; this tool makes one result request and returns the alignment content plus a filename suggestion. If the provider still reports QUEUED or RUNNING, it returns ready:false with a retry hint; provider failures are errors and retain the job_id for diagnosis. Results are capped at 8 MiB and are returned verbatim so the caller can save the content as an alignment file for conserved-site inspection or downstream phylogenetic analysis. No automatic retries. EMBL-EBI stores results for a limited provider-controlled period (documented as up to one week); this is not an app-owned deletion guarantee. Keep the job_id to resume after restart.

ensembl_ld_pairwise
Query linkage disequilibrium (r² and D′) between two variant IDs, such as GWAS Catalog rsIDs, in an explicitly selected population. The caller must supply the full population name in population_name (e.g. 1000GENOMES:phase_3:KHV); this tool does not discover populations or infer ancestry. species defaults to homo_sapiens. Returns upstream variant identities and numeric r2/d_prime without significance or causality inference. High LD does not establish causality. Empty results mean no LD data returned, not zero LD; invalid IDs/populations and service failures remain errors. Reference metadata includes the population, known panel, query URL and retrieval time; assembly/release are null because the LD endpoint does not report them.

ensembl_ld_proxies
Find nearby variants in LD with a variant ID (e.g. a GWAS rsID) in a required population_name such as 1000GENOMES:phase_3:KHV. species defaults to homo_sapiens. min_r2 defaults to 0.8; min_d_prime defaults to 0; both are inclusive thresholds in [0,1]. window_size is the total width of the centered Ensembl window in kb (integer 1–500, default 500, approximately 250 kb on each side at the default); max_records caps output (integer 1–1000, default 100) and does not limit upstream computation or download size. Results are sorted by r2 descending, then d_prime descending and variant ID, before capping. Coordinates/annotations are upstream attributes. Report the population and reference_data with results. High LD does not establish causality or functional equivalence. Empty results mean no qualifying data returned, not zero LD. Errors remain errors; assembly/release are not reported by this endpoint and remain null. The caller must supply the full population name; this tool does not discover populations or infer ancestry.

Variants
Show operations and parameters
gnomAD coordinate rules: record the dataset pin with the reference assembly. Short-variant gene/region queries use GRCh37 for r2.1/ExAC and GRCh38 for r3/r4; structural-variant gene queries use gnomad_sv_r2_1 (GRCh37) or gnomad_sv_r4 (GRCh38); changing the pin does not convert input coordinates. gene_constraint and the gnomAD ClinVar mirror use a fixed GRCh38 gene lookup and do not accept a dataset argument. Mitochondrial queries also use a fixed GRCh38 parent lookup; supply either a gene or both ordered region bounds, never both modes. Region bounds must be integers from 1 to 999,999,999. The one-million-base difference limit applies to region_variants; it is not a separate mitochondrial limit. Keep release-specific structural-variant IDs with their original SV dataset.
get_variant
Look up one gnomAD short variant by ID and return overall exome/genome frequencies. variant_id is chrom-pos-ref-alt on the dataset's reference build (GRCh38 for r3/r4, GRCh37 for r2.1/ExAC), e.g. 19-44908822-C-T (APOE rs7412); use search_variants to resolve an rsID first. Set include_populations: true when ancestry-specific counts/frequencies are needed for an individual variant. Retain the dataset, allele counts and quality filters when interpreting frequencies; rarity alone does not establish pathogenicity or an ACMG criterion.

structural_variants
List gnomAD structural variants (deletions, duplications, insertions, inversions, CNVs...) overlapping a gene. Pass exactly one of gene_symbol (e.g. TP53) or gene_id. dataset is an SV pin — gnomad_sv_r4 (default, GRCh38) or gnomad_sv_r2_1 (GRCh37); SV IDs are release-specific.

get_structural_variant
Look up one gnomAD structural variant by its release-specific SV ID (e.g. DEL_CHR17_599B1512 in gnomad_sv_r4). IDs do NOT carry across releases — dataset (gnomad_sv_r4 default, or gnomad_sv_r2_1) must match the release the ID came from.

mitochondrial_variants
List gnomAD mitochondrial variants with heteroplasmy-aware counts (ac_het, ac_hom, max_heteroplasmy) for a mitochondrial gene OR a chrM coordinate window. The mitochondrial callset is available only through the GRCh38 gnomAD r3/r4 dataset pins: use dataset gnomad_r3 or gnomad_r4. Pass a gene (gene_symbol like MT-TL1, or gene_id) OR a region (region_start + region_stop), not both.

clinvar_search
Search ClinVar directly (live NCBI, not gnomAD's snapshot) and return matching variation records with clinical significance, review status and gold stars. Requires a contact email (Settings → Credentials → Literature access → Contact email) per NCBI E-utilities usage policy. Args: query (a ClinVar Entrez query — free text like "TP53 R175H" or an HGVS string works, and fielded terms compose with AND/OR/NOT, e.g. BRCA1[gene], pathogenic[CLIN_SIG], "Lynch syndrome"[dis], single_nucleotide_variant[Type of variation]; an rsID also works but clinvar_variant_by_rsid returns fuller records), max_records (page cap 1-200, default 50). The match TOTAL is always reported; when total > max_records the list is a capped prefix (ClinVar relevance/recency order) and truncated is true. NCBI E-utilities intermittently return HTTP 500 under load — retry once a few seconds later if that surfaces.

clinvar_get_records
Fetch full ClinVar records for a batch of VCV/RCV accessions or bare variation IDs. Requires a contact email (Settings → Credentials → Literature access → Contact email) per NCBI E-utilities usage policy. Args: accessions (up to 50 identifiers, mixed forms accepted — VCV000045122 (versioned VCV000045122.3 ok; resolved locally, free), RCV000019428 (each RCV costs one extra esearch), or a bare ClinVar variation ID (45122). rsIDs are rejected — use clinvar_variant_by_rsid. An RCV (one variant-condition pair) resolves to its parent VCV variation record). Never silently drops an input.

clinvar_variant_by_rsid
All ClinVar variation records that reference a dbSNP rsID, with full classifications (an rsID can map to several VCVs — one per alternate allele, e.g. rs121913529 covers KRAS G12D/G12V/G12A). Requires a contact email (Settings → Credentials → Literature access → Contact email) per NCBI E-utilities usage policy. Args: rsid (dbSNP reference SNP ID, e.g. rs7412; case-insensitive, must match rs<digits>), max_records (cap 1-200, default 50). total always carries the true match count and truncated flags a capped listing; total == 0 means ClinVar has no record for the rsID.

dbsnp_get_rsids
Canonical dbSNP RefSNP records for a batch of rsIDs: GRCh38+GRCh37 placements, alleles, gene context, per-study allele frequencies, and ClinVar cross-references. Requires a contact email (Settings → Credentials → Literature access → Contact email) per NCBI E-utilities usage policy; without one the tool returns {error: 'contact_email_required', message}. Args: rsids (up to 20 rs<digits>, case-insensitive) — each costs one paced NCBI Variation Services request, so large batches take ~1 s per rsID. Returns {n_requested, records, not_found (rs numbers dbSNP doesn't know), not_processed (rsIDs skipped when the wall-clock budget ran out — re-request just those)}. Each record: {rsid, status, create_date, last_update_date, last_update_build_id, n_citations, citations_pmids (capped at 20; citations_truncated flags the cap), variant_type, mane_select_ids, placements, alleles}. status is 'live', 'merged' (record instead carries merged_into — re-query those rsIDs) or 'no_data' (withdrawn/unsupported). placements give 1-based chromosome coordinates with ref/alts per assembly (GRCh38 first, is_primary true). Each alt-allele entry: {allele, ref, spdi (0-based interbase), hgvs, frequencies: [{study, study_version, allele_count, total_count, af}] (ALFA, 1000Genomes, TOPMED, gnomAD...), clinvar: [{rcv_accession, clinical_significances, review_status, last_evaluated_date, disease_names}], genes: [{symbol, gene_id, name, orientation, consequences (SO terms), mane_select: [{transcript_hgvs, protein_spdi}]}]}.

dbsnp_search_by_region
List dbSNP rsIDs in a genomic window (esearch db=snp positional index — NCBI Variation Services has no region endpoint). Requires a contact email (Settings → Credentials → Literature access → Contact email) per NCBI E-utilities usage policy; without one the tool returns {error: 'contact_email_required', message}. Args: chrom (1-22, X, Y or MT; 'chr' prefix tolerated), start (1-based inclusive), stop (inclusive; span capped at 1 Mb — split larger regions into consecutive windows; dense regions hold many thousands of rsIDs per kb, so keep windows small or raise max_rsids), assembly (which positional index — 'GRCh38' default -> [CPOS], or 'GRCh37' -> [CPOS_GRCH37]; coordinates must be on the chosen assembly), max_rsids (listing cap 1-1000, default 200). Returns {chrom, start, stop, assembly, term (the exact Entrez query used), total (the API's own count), n_returned, truncated, rsids}. truncated is true when total > n_returned — the list is then a prefix in Entrez default order (descending rs number), never a silent truncation. Feed rsIDs (<= 20 at a time) to dbsnp_get_rsids for full records.

mavedb_search_score_sets
Search public MaveDB multiplexed assays of variant effect (MAVE) score sets by text, such as a gene symbol, protein or assay. No API key or contact email is required. Returns one page with the upstream total when known; functional scores are assay-specific and are not clinical classifications or population frequencies.

const result = await host.mcp("variants", "mavedb_search_score_sets", {"text":"BRCA1","limit":20})
mavedb_get_score_set
Retrieve a published MaveDB score set by URN, including targets, assay metadata, license, publications and experiment relationships. Includes official full CSV and mapped-variant download URLs for manual download by the user; do not fetch these URLs with raw HTTP to bypass host.mcp. Read the assay methods and score calibration before interpreting functional effects.

mavedb_download_scores
Download a CSV page of MaveDB variant scores (default 1000 rows, maximum 10000). Uses start/limit, not offset. Returns original CSV text, including all score columns and NA values, for saving with Notebook file APIs; this tool does not write a local file. Also returns the unpaginated official download URL for manual download by the user; do not fetch these URLs with raw HTTP to bypass host.mcp. Use numVariants from mavedb_get_score_set to plan pages; a page is not the full dataset.

mavedb_get_mapped_variants
Retrieve existing MaveDB variant mappings for a published score set, including GA4GH VRS preMapped/postMapped objects, reference sequence identifiers, VRS version and mapping errors. This reads mappings already computed by MaveDB; it does not submit variants or perform liftover. The upstream endpoint is unpaginated and the shared 64 MiB response limit applies. For larger datasets, offer the official URL from mavedb_get_score_set for manual download by the user; do not fetch these URLs with raw HTTP to bypass host.mcp. HTTP 404 can mean no mapping records exist, not only that the score set URN is unavailable. Returned records may include failed mappings.

mavedb_get_experiment_score_sets
List the score sets visible to a public reader of a MaveDB experiment. The upstream endpoint filters by visibility and supersession chains, so this is not a complete version history. It returns the selected list without pagination. HTTP 404 can mean no associated score sets are available, not only that the experiment URN is unavailable. Use the returned score set URNs to retrieve functional scores or mappings.

clinvar_get_submissions
Fetch individual SCV submission evidence from official ClinVar VCV XML. Requires the same contact email as clinvar_search. Pass accession: a VCV accession (optional .version is honored) or a positive variation ID. Unversioned input retrieves the latest VCV. RCV, SCV and rsIDs are not accepted. Returns submitted classifications separately for germline, somatic clinical impact and oncogenicity, conditions, submitter, evaluation date, assertion methods, public classification comments, observed evidence and citations where provided. Missing source fields stay null/empty. Compare submissions within the same classification type and condition; this tool does not infer conflicts. max_submissions sets page size (1-200, default 200); offset defaults to 0. For later pages, pass the returned next_page arguments, which pin the VCV version; offset > 0 requires a versioned VCV. Each page re-fetches the complete XML; there is no result cache. Included records contain indirect references rather than direct SCV evidence. Duplicate SCVs retain the highest version present in the requested snapshot.

emdb_get_entries
Fetch structured metadata records for EMDB cryo-EM 3D map entries. Accepts accessions as 'EMD-1234', 'emd-1234' or '1234'. Each record carries title, structure determination method (singleParticle / helical / tomography / subtomogramAveraging / electronCrystallography), resolution in Angstrom (null for entries with no reported resolution, e.g. raw tomograms) and the resolution method, deposition/release dates, sample and macromolecule/supramolecule names, fitted PDB model IDs (empty list when no model is fitted), primary citation (journal, year, first author, DOI, PMID), map dimensions and voxel size, and status. Obsolete entries report is_obsolete=true plus superseded_by accessions. Unknown accessions come back as {"emdb_id", "error": "not_found"} — never silently dropped. Metadata only; map volumes are never downloaded.

emdb_search_entries
Search EMDB with a Solr-style query; complete paged retrieval of compact rows. Query examples: 'title:"apoferritin" AND resolution:[0 TO 1.5]', 'structure_determination_method:"singleParticle"', 'current_status:"REL" AND release_date:[2024-01-01T00:00:00Z TO *]'. Args: query (Solr query string); max_rows (row cap, default 1000). Returns num_found_released (the API's own released-entry count from the facet route — ground truth), rows_retrieved, rows_by_status (REL vs OBS — the search route returns obsolete entries too but they are NOT counted as released), released_complete (true iff every released match was retrieved; false means max_rows truncated the sweep or the counts disagree), and records: compact per-entry rows (emdb_id, title, resolution, structure_determination_method, current_status, release_date, fitted_pdbs) sorted by EMD accession.

emdb_get_entry_section
Fetch one detailed metadata section for EMDB entries. Sections: 'publications' — primary citation with complete ordered author list, auxiliary citations, external references (PMID/DOI/ISSN/CSD); 'map' — file, format, data type, dimensions, voxel spacing, origin, axis order, cell, voxel statistics, contour levels, symmetry; 'sample' — per-macromolecule records (type, molecular weight, copies, EC number, source organism + NCBI taxid, sequence cross-refs) and per-supramolecule records; 'imaging' — microscope, voltage, electron source, detector, dose, imaging modes, defocus range, magnification, Cs, cryogen, grid/buffer/vitrification conditions (one record per microscopy session — entries can carry several). Args: emdb_ids (accession list, any of EMD-1234/emd-1234/1234); section (one of publications/map/sample/imaging). Unknown accessions are reported with "error": "not_found". Use emdb_get_entries first when you only need the headline record.

emdb_get_validation
Fetch numeric validation-analysis metrics for EMDB entries. Per entry (from the EMDB /analysis route): Q-score, atom inclusion, recommended/predicted/rawmap contour levels, model/mask volumes, model-map ratio, surface metrics — where the validation pipeline has computed them. available_blocks lists every block the validation service returned; sparse payloads (tomograms, model-free or historical entries) yield explicit nulls.

complexportal_get_complexes
Fetch curated Complex Portal records by CPX accession. Each record: complex AC, recommended/systematic names + synonyms, species and taxid, participant list with stoichiometry (min/max copies), biological role and interactor type, evidence ECO code, GO annotations, and cross-references — the manually curated description of a stable macromolecular complex. Records come back in input order; unknown accessions are listed in not_found rather than silently dropped. For binary interaction evidence (who binds whom in which experiment) use the intact_* tools instead.

const result = await host.mcp("structures", "complexportal_get_complexes", {"complex_acs": ["CPX-2158", "CPX-2419"]})
complexportal_search_by_participant
Search Complex Portal for complexes containing a molecule. accession is a participant accession — UniProt (e.g. 'P04637'), ChEBI, or RNAcentral. With participants_only=true (default) the search is field-qualified (pxref:<accession>) so only complexes that actually contain the molecule as a curated participant are returned; with false the bare accession is matched as free text too (descriptions, names), which over-reports but can catch mentions. All result pages are retrieved and the row count is verified against the service-reported total (total_reported == total_retrieved, or the call fails loudly). Hits are compact records (complex_ac, name, species, interactors) sorted by complex accession; fetch full detail with complexportal_get_complexes.
| Field | Type | Requirement and constraints |

accession | string | required |
participants_only | boolean | optional; default: true |
const result = await host.mcp("structures", "complexportal_search_by_participant", {"accession": "P69905", "participants_only": true})
intact_fetch_interactions
Retrieve ALL IntAct binary interactions matching a query, MI-score filtered. query is a UniProt accession (e.g. 'P04637'), gene symbol, free text, or any IntAct Solr query. Retrieval is a complete paginated sweep verified against the server-reported total (n_records == total_elements, or the call FAILS LOUDLY — silent truncation is impossible). min_mi_score/max_mi_score filter server-side on the IntAct MI confidence score (0.45 is a common medium-confidence floor); interactor_species filters by species name or taxid (e.g. ["Homo sapiens"] or ["9606"]). Records are slim and structured: interactor pair (IntAct ACs, database identifiers, molecule names, species/taxids), interaction type, detection method (+MI id), experimental roles, host organism, MI score, PubMed id, first author, source database — sorted by DESCENDING MI score. Output lists at most max_records_returned records (records_truncated=true when the full verified sweep was larger; n_records always reports the true total). Large queries (e.g. CFTR ~10k interactions) take a while — narrow with min_mi_score or species when possible.
| Field | Type | Requirement and constraints |

query | string | required |
min_mi_score | number | optional; default: 0 |

intact_get_interactor
Resolve a molecule to its IntAct interactor record(s). query is a UniProt accession, gene symbol, or IntAct interactor AC (e.g. 'EBI-7090529'). Returns ALL matching interactor records with an explicit n_matches — a UniProt accession can resolve to the canonical protein plus chain/isoform interactors, and this tool never silently picks one. Each record: interactor_ac, preferred_identifier, name, species, taxid, interactor_type, and the interaction_count seen by IntAct (useful for sizing an intact_fetch_interactions sweep).

query | string | required |

intact_get_interaction_details
Full curated detail for ONE IntAct interaction AC (e.g. 'EBI-15635490'). Returns interaction type, host organism, detection method, publication, cross-references, annotations, kinetic/affinity parameters and confidences, plus per-participant records (identifier, species, biological and experimental role, participant detection methods) unless include_participants=false. Get interaction ACs from intact_fetch_interactions records (the interaction_ac field). Unknown ACs return { interaction_ac, error: 'not_found' }.

intact_build_network
Build a depth-1 IntAct interaction network around seed proteins. seed_accessions are UniProt accessions. Step 1: a complete, count-verified MI-score-filtered interaction sweep per seed. Step 2: the partners of every seed edge plus the seeds form the node set. Step 3: partner-partner edges are only discoverable by querying the partners themselves, so up to max_interactors_expanded partners are queried (most-connected first, ties by identifier) and edges with BOTH endpoints inside the node set are kept. The expansion block reports exactly which partners were / were not expanded (expansion.complete=false means more partner-partner edges may exist). Output: nodes, edges (with MI score, detection method, PubMed id), per-seed sweep stats. Keep seeds few and min_mi_score >= 0.45 — every expansion is a full paginated sweep.

pdb_search_structures
Search RCSB PDB entries by attribute filters; paged, capped + flagged. All filters AND together; at least one is required. text is a full-text relevance query ('p53 DNA binding domain'); organism is an exact source-organism lineage name ('Homo sapiens' — matches at any lineage level, so 'Eukaryota' works too); taxonomy_id an NCBI taxid (9606); uniprot_accession finds entries whose polymer entities map to that UniProt ('P04637' -> every p53 structure); experimental_method is the PDB vocabulary ('X-RAY DIFFRACTION', 'ELECTRON MICROSCOPY', 'SOLUTION NMR', ... — case-insensitive, unknown values error with the full list); max_resolution_angstrom keeps entries at or below that resolution; ligand_comp_id requires a bound nonpolymer component by chem-comp id ('ZN', 'ATP', 'HEM'). include_computed_models=true adds computed structure models (e.g. AlphaFold) to the default experimental-only results. Returns total_count (the API's own match total — ground truth), n_retrieved, truncated (true iff total_count > n_retrieved; max_rows, 1..1000, caps retrieval), and records [{pdb_id, score}] in relevance order. Identifiers only — chain to pdb_get_structures for metadata.

pdb_get_structures
Fetch entry-level summaries for PDB entries (batch, max 25 ids). Accepts 4-character PDB ids in any case ('1tup' == '1TUP'; duplicates are de-duplicated). Each record: title, experimental methods, resolution in Angstrom (null for methods without one, e.g. NMR), determination methodology (experimental vs computational), deposit/release/revision dates and status, molecular weight (kDa), assembly and entity counts (protein/DNA/RNA polymer + nonpolymer), bound ligand chem-comp ids, polymer/nonpolymer entity id lists (inputs for pdb_get_entities / pdb_get_ligands), and the primary citation (title, journal, year, authors, PubMed id, DOI). Unknown ids come back as {"pdb_id", "error": "not_found"} — never silently dropped. Metadata only; coordinate files are never downloaded.

const result = await host.mcp("structures", "pdb_get_structures", {"pdb_ids": ["1TUP", "1tup", "6XYZ"]})
pdb_get_entities
Polymer entity details for one PDB entry, incl. UniProt mappings. With entity_ids=null every polymer entity of the entry is fetched, capped at 25 with truncated=true and n_polymer_entities reporting the entry's true count (large assemblies like ribosomes carry 50+ — get the full id list from pdb_get_structures' polymer_entity_ids and page with explicit subsets like ["26", "27"]); with an explicit entity_ids subset the entry total is not fetched, so n_polymer_entities is null; an explicit entity_ids list larger than 25 errors. Each record: description, polymer type (Protein / DNA / RNA), sequence length, mutation count, deposited copies, chain ids (asym + author), source organisms with taxids, UniProt accessions with per-entity sequence coverage (SIFTS), and UniProt-aligned regions (entity-seq vs reference-seq coordinates). Unknown entity ids are listed in not_found; an unknown entry id errors. include_sequences=true adds the canonical one-letter sequence per entity; if the combined sequences exceed max_bytes (default 400000) they are omitted and sequences_omitted explains why — metadata always survives.

pdb_get_ligands
Bound ligands (nonpolymer components) of one PDB entry, with chemistry. Walks the entry's nonpolymer entities and resolves each chemical component: per ligand — entity id, chem-comp id ('ZN', 'ATP'), description, deposited copy count, author chain ids, and a chem_comp block (name, formula, formula weight, formal charge, component type, InChIKey, stereo SMILES). Waters are not nonpolymer entities in the PDB data model and never appear. Entries with no ligands return ligands: []. n_nonpolymer_entities is the entry's true count; truncated=true when it exceeds max_ligands (clamped to 1..25, which bounds the request budget) — never silently dropped. Entities/components the data API no longer serves are reported inline with "error": "not_found" (partial results, not an aborted call). An unknown entry id errors.

alphafold_get_prediction
AlphaFold DB predicted-structure metadata for one UniProt accession. Returns has_model, n_models and per-model records. A single accession can carry several models (canonical + isoforms like 'P04637-9', and community providers beyond the Google DeepMind monomer pipeline — provider_id / tool_used identify them). Each model: entry id, UniProt annotation (id, description, gene, organism, taxid, reviewed flags), sequence coordinates and length, global pLDDT (global_plddt, 0-100) plus the fraction of residues per pLDDT confidence bin (very_low <50, low 50-70, confident 70-90, very_high >90), model version info and creation date, and download URLs (cif/bcif/pdb coordinates, PAE JSON + image, per-residue pLDDT JSON, MSA, AlphaMissense CSV where available) — URLs only, payloads are never downloaded; fetch them yourself if needed. Accessions without a prediction return has_model=false (not an error); malformed identifiers return an explicit error field. include_sequence=true adds the model sequence (protein one-letter).

alphafold_check_coverage
Batch AlphaFold DB coverage check (max 40 unique UniProt accessions). Blank entries and duplicates are stripped before the batch cap applies, and disclosed: n_requested == n_unique + n_blank_skipped + n_duplicate_skipped always reconciles. One compact record per unique accession, in input order: has_model, n_models, and the primary (first-listed) model's model_entity_id, latest_version, global_plddt and sequence_length. Accessions with no prediction report has_model=false; malformed ones carry an explicit error field — never silently dropped.

Find experimental PDB protein entities from one ungapped protein sequence (25..10000 amino acids, raw or single-record FASTA; whitespace and lowercase accepted). Sequence similarity uses RCSB MMseqs2 sequence identity: identity_cutoff is a fraction 0..1, not a percentage; evalue_cutoff is the maximum E-value. min_query_coverage (0..1) filters each alignment locally using (query_end - query_beg + 1) / input sequence length; a hit needs one alignment meeting the cutoff, and only qualifying alignments are returned. This is sequence coverage, not experimentally resolved residue coverage. Scans at most max_candidates (default 100, max 1000) upstream hits in relevance order, then returns at most max_rows (default 10, max 25) entities with chain IDs and match metrics. total_count is the upstream total BEFORE coverage filtering; n_matched counts qualifying entities only among scanned candidates. truncated means more upstream candidates or qualifying records remain. Increase max_candidates to examine lower-ranked hits. Chain IDs list all deposited copies of the matching entity: asym_ids are label IDs, auth_asym_ids are author IDs. Metadata 404s retain the match with metadata_error=not_found and null chain IDs. Relevance score is not sequence identity. Experimental structures only; chain to pdb_get_structures for entry metadata. No coordinate files are downloaded.

omnipath_query_regulation
Query directed, signed human protein regulation from OmniPath. Provide one canonical human UniProt accession (resolve names with the Genes connector first). Partner nodes may be proteins or native COMPLEX: identifiers; never expand complexes into inferred pairwise edges. upstream returns sources regulating the queried target; downstream returns targets regulated by the queried source. Both stimulation and inhibition can be true: preserve conflicting evidence and separate consensus flags. Uses the omnipath dataset and the upstream commercial license filter; original resource terms still apply. Relations and citations aggregate multiple sources and biological contexts, not tissue-specific causal proof. Results use upstream order, not confidence ranking; limited results are not the complete network. No pagination or bulk download.

Args: gene_symbol (HGNC symbol, exact match, e.g. PCSK9, APOE; case-sensitive upstream — pass canonical uppercase; intergenic variants map to flanking genes, so rows may sit outside the gene body); max_records (cap default 500; rows server-sorted by p-value ascending). Returns {gene_symbol, api_total, returned, truncated, associations} with the same row shape as gwas_associations_for_variant. A nonexistent symbol returns api_total=0, not an error.

gene_symbol | string | required |
max_records | integer | optional; default: 500 |
const result = await host.mcp("human-genetics", "gwas_associations_for_gene", {"gene_symbol": "PCSK9", "max_records": 100})
gwas_associations_for_trait
GWAS Catalog associations annotated to one EFO trait, most significant first. Args: efo_id (ontology term short form as used by the catalog, e.g. MONDO_0005010, EFO_0004340, HP_0003124; the catalog migrated many historical EFO ids to MONDO/HP — resolve current ids with gwas_search_traits first; pass exactly one of efo_id/efo_trait); efo_trait (exact trait LABEL alternative); max_records (cap default 500; rows p-value ascending). Returns {efo_id|efo_trait, api_total, returned, truncated, associations} with the same row shape as gwas_associations_for_variant. An unknown id/label returns api_total=0, not an error.

gwas_search_traits
Search GWAS Catalog EFO trait annotations by label substring — the entry point for resolving a disease/phenotype name to the ontology ids that gwas_associations_for_trait / gwas_search_studies take. Args: query (case-insensitive substring of the trait label, e.g. "coronary" matches coronary artery disorder MONDO_0005010 etc.; the catalog mixes EFO, MONDO, HP and OBA ids — don't assume an EFO_ prefix); max_records (cap default 500). Returns {query, api_total, returned, truncated, efo_traits}; each row {efo_id, efo_trait, uri} sorted by label. Count-verified against the catalog's own total when not capped.

gwas_search_studies
Search GWAS Catalog studies by trait annotation or publication. Args: efo_id (ontology short form, e.g. MONDO_0005010, resolve via gwas_search_traits; filters combine AND — usually pass one); efo_trait (exact trait label alternative); pubmed_id (PubMed ID of the study's publication, e.g. 38714703); max_records (cap default 500). Returns {filters, api_total, returned, truncated, studies}; each study row {accession_id, disease_trait, efo_traits, bg_efo_traits, pubmed_id, initial_sample_size, replication_sample_size, discovery_ancestry, replication_ancestry, genotyping_technologies, platforms, cohort, full_summary_stats_available, imputed, gxe, gxg}. Count-verified against the catalog total when not capped. At least one filter is required (the unfiltered catalog is ~90k studies).

Fetch one GWAS Catalog variant record (position, mapped genes, consequence) by rsID — lighter than pulling its associations. Args: rs_id (dbSNP rsID e.g. rs7412). Returns {found, rs_id, variant}; variant is {rs_id, merged, functional_class, most_severe_consequence, alleles (e.g. "C/T (forward)"), mapped_genes, locations:[{chromosome, position, region}], last_update_date} — positions GRCh38 — or null when the rsID is not in the catalog. merged=1 means the rsID was merged into another record upstream.

Returns {filters, returned, truncated, datasets} sorted by dataset_id; each {dataset_id (QTD...), study_id (QTS...), study_label, sample_group, tissue_id, tissue_label, condition_label, quant_method, sample_size}. The API publishes no total count; truncated=false proves the listing is complete.

phewas_instances
List the public PheWeb PheWAS portals this server can query, with genome build and capability registry. Returns {instances:{key:{label, base_url, genome_build, capabilities, notes}}}. capabilities name the endpoints each instance exposes: variant (phewas_variant), gene (phewas_finngen_gene), phenotypes (phewas_list_phenotypes), autocomplete (phewas_search_phenotypes). NOTE the build split: FinnGen R12 variant IDs are GRCh38; BioBank Japan (pheweb.jp) is GRCh37/hg19 — liftover coordinates before cross-querying.
| Field | Type | Requirement and constraints |

const result = await host.mcp("human-genetics", "phewas_instances", {})
phewas_variant
PheWAS for one variant: its association statistics against every phenotype in a biobank PheWeb portal, most significant first. Args: instance (finngen FinnGen R12 GRCh38, or bbj BioBank Japan GRCh37; variant coords MUST be on the instance's build); variant (chrom-pos-ref-alt, :/_ separators and chr prefix tolerated, e.g. 19-44908822-C-T APOE rs7412 GRCh38/finngen or 1-55505647-G-T PCSK9 rs11591147 GRCh37/bbj); max_phenos (cap default 200; FinnGen returns ~2470 rows; sorted by p-value ascending before capping). Returns {instance, genome_build, variant, variant_meta, total, returned, truncated, phenotypes}; variant_meta {chrom, pos, ref, alt, rsids, nearest_genes, gnomad (FinnGen only)}. Each phenotype row {phenocode, phenostring, category, pval, mlogp, beta, sebeta, af|maf, maf_case, maf_control, n_cases, n_controls, n_samples} (unpublished fields null; BBJ rows have af, FinnGen rows have maf triplets + mlogp).

phewas_finngen_gene
Gene-level PheWAS from FinnGen R12: for every disease endpoint, the best-associated variant in the gene region, most significant first. Args: gene_symbol (HGNC symbol e.g. PCSK9, APOE; unknown symbols raise a not-found error); max_phenos (cap default 200; FinnGen has 2470 endpoints, one row each; sorted by p-value ascending before capping). Returns {instance:"finngen", genome_build:"GRCh38", gene_symbol, total, returned, truncated, phenotypes}; each row is the phewas_variant row shape plus variant:{chrom, pos, ref, alt, varid, rsids} — the top variant for that endpoint in this gene's region (region != gene body; PheWeb pads gene boundaries). Most rows are null results (pval1) — the per-endpoint BEST variant is still reported; filter by pval yourself for significant hits.

Args: instance (currently only finngen exposes this endpoint; BBJ does not — use phewas_search_phenotypes there); max_records (cap default 3000 > FinnGen's ~2470 endpoints, so the default returns the complete catalogue). Returns {instance, total, returned, truncated, phenotypes} sorted by phenocode; each row {phenocode (e.g. "T2D"), phenostring, category, num_cases, num_controls, num_gw_significant (count of genome-wide-significant loci for that endpoint)}.

phewas_search_phenotypes
Search a PheWeb instance's phenotypes (and entities) by name — the entry point for resolving a disease name to a phenocode. Args: query (free-text phenotype query e.g. "diabetes", "asthma"; matches phenotype names/codes; some instances also match gene names and rsIDs); instance (finngen default or bbj — both expose autocomplete); max_records (cap default 500; autocomplete responses are short lists, rarely capped). Returns {instance, query, total, returned, truncated, matches}; each match {display, phenocode, url}. Use the phenocode with phewas_list_phenotypes rows or the instance website; BBJ display strings embed the code in parentheses.

gwas_get_summary_statistics
Inspect the complete GWAS Catalog summary-statistics package for one GCST accession without downloading the potentially huge data files. Returns found=false when the accession has no FTP directory; otherwise returns the HTTPS FTP directory, original and harmonised file listings, parsed -meta.yaml records, the genome assemblies and harmonisation references declared by those records, and the current GWAS-SSF standard column definitions. The column definitions describe the standard, not an observed header from a compressed data file. Use the returned file URLs to download a selected full dataset. Args: accession_id (GCST accession, e.g. GCST90000123); metadata_file (optional exact YAML filename to limit metadata parsing and both reference summaries; the file listing remains complete). The FTP directory is derived from the accession’s thousand-study bucket; malformed YAML or an unreadable existing directory remains an upstream error.

geo_get_matrix_files
Discover Series Matrix files and NCBI-generated RNA-seq raw counts, FPKM/TPM and gene annotation files for one GSE from live NCBI listings. Returns advertised URLs, not downloaded matrices or verified file contents. Start with geo_get_series for sample metadata. Offer the official URL for manual download by the user, then use geo_preflight_matrix on locally read decompressed text. Do not bypass host.mcp with raw HTTP. Missing or failed listings do not prove absence of data; also inspect the series supplementary files.

const result = await host.mcp("omics-archives", "geo_get_matrix_files", {"accession":"GSE164073"})
geo_preflight_matrix
Preflight decompressed dense TSV or Series Matrix text (up to 8 MiB) without network or filesystem access. Supply samples from geo_get_series (accession, title, platform_id) to map columns by GSM, never by position. Only plain TSV supports unique exact title matching; GSM-shaped columns never fall back to titles. Series Matrix requires exactly one !Sample_geo_accession header containing valid GSM accessions matching the sample column count and order, and never falls back to title matching. For larger files use complete:false and perform full validation in the analysis environment. For plain TSV previews, pass the table header plus complete preview rows. For Series Matrix previews, also preserve the preceding metadata, including !Sample_geo_accession and any !Sample_platform_id header, and !series_matrix_table_begin; do not submit only the table or fabricate !series_matrix_table_end. Set complete:true only when text contains the entire file. For plain TSV, completeness is caller-declared, not independently verified. A preview cannot establish total dimensions. Does not handle sparse Matrix Market, archives, HDF5 or multiline TSV fields. Preserve sample_mapping column order when preparing the analysis matrix.

ZINC
Show operations and parameters
zinc_search_by_id
Look up purchasable compounds in ZINC22/ZINC20 by ZINC identifier — answers "what is this compound and who sells it". Batched: pass up to 100 ids in one call rather than many single-id calls. Async upstream (submit + poll); can take up to timeout_s seconds.
| Field | Type | Requirement and constraints |

zinc_search_by_smiles
Search ZINC22's purchasable chemical space by structure — answers "what purchasable compounds look like this SMILES". This is BOTH the exact-match and the analog-discovery (similarity) tool: CartBlanche22 exposes one structure-search endpoint whose dist parameter spans exact through diverse, so there is deliberately no separate similarity-search tool. The slowest ZINC query — raise dist gradually rather than starting loose.

zinc_random_sample
Draw a random sample of purchasable compounds from ZINC22 — for building screening decks, property baselines, or decoy sets. count doubles as this tool's max_results; re-calling draws a fresh sample. Async upstream (submit + poll).

zinc_get_3d
Locate docking-ready 3D structures for ZINC compounds. ZINC22 ships pre-generated 3D conformers (DOCK .db2.gz, .mol2.gz, .sdf.gz) in its file repository, organized by tranche — this tool resolves each id to its tranche and returns the repository locations to download from for docking prep (DOCK6, AutoDock Vina, etc.). Max 50 ids per call (3D retrieval is per-compound work). Async upstream (submit + poll).

Zenodo
Show operations and parameters
search_records
Search public Zenodo records (datasets, software and publications) using Zenodo query-string syntax, e.g. title:"climate" or doi:"10.5281/zenodo.8435696". Fetches one page, up to 25 records, without authentication. By default only the latest version is listed; all_versions includes older versions. For the next page, keep query, page_size, sort and all_versions unchanged. The search window is limited to 10,000 results: (page - 1) * page_size must be less than 10,000; the final page may be partial. If pagination_limited is true, narrow the query. Public metadata does not imply open file access.

get_record
Retrieve public Zenodo metadata and the file inventory exposed by the record endpoint. Pass a decimal record ID, not a DOI or URL. A concept ID may resolve to its latest version; requested_record_id, record_id and concept_record_id remain distinct. Use the returned version-specific record_id for reproducible lookup. description_html is upstream HTML, not sanitized. File links and checksums are metadata only: no download, checksum verification or access probe is performed. Restricted or embargoed records can have public metadata without accessible files; an empty file list does not establish that the deposit has no files.

HMMER
Show operations and parameters
search
Submit one asynchronous EMBL-EBI HMMER3 search. program selects phmmer (protein sequence against a sequence database), hmmscan (protein sequence against Pfam profiles), hmmsearch (profile HMM/alignment against a sequence database), or jackhmmer (iterative remote-homolog search). input is the FASTA sequence, profile HMM, or alignment text accepted by that program. database is the provider database name. Optional thresholds use HMMER parameter names (incE/incdomE, E/domE, incT/incdomT, T/domT); iterations controls jackhmmer rounds. Submission is not completion: retain the returned job_id and poll with status. The service may accept a job even if the response is lost; never automatically resubmit an uncertain submission.

status
Check one HMMER job once, without polling or resubmitting. SUCCESS means results are available; PENDING/RUNNING means wait before checking again; ERROR/FAILURE/NOT_FOUND are terminal outcomes and never mean zero hits. Keep the exact job_id.
| Field | Type | Requirement and constraints |
|---|---|---|
job_id | string | required; maxLength: 36; pattern: "^[A-Fa-f0-9]{8}-[A-Fa-f0-9]{4}-[A-Fa-f0-9]{4}-[A-Fa-f0-9]{4}-[A-Fa-f0-9]{12}$" |
const result = await host.mcp("hmmer", "status", {"job_id":"8ebb1d5f-4457-4da8-808c-f811105c3654"})
results
Retrieve one HMMER job result once. Checks the provider status first and returns no result payload while the job is pending or failed. On SUCCESS, retrieves all result pages, including domain annotations; jackhmmer iteration records are returned in the provider array shape. Preserve the result in a Notebook artifact because provider retention is finite; an empty match list is a completed zero-hit result, distinct from a pending or failed job.

InterProScan
Show operations and parameters
status
Check one InterProScan job once, without retrying or polling. Wait at least 10 seconds between checks. FINISHED means results can be retrieved; ERROR/FAILURE are job failures, NOT_FOUND means unknown or expired, never a zero-hit result. Keep the exact job_id; this tool never resubmits.

results
Retrieve the complete InterProScan TSV report for a job, capped at 2 MiB (oversized reports fail, never truncate). Checks status once first, then fetches TSV only for FINISHED. No retries, polling, or resubmission. Preserve the report in a Notebook artifact promptly because provider results expire. TSV contains one row per signature match; coordinates are 1-based inclusive and scores are application-specific. Optional columns hold InterPro, GO and pathway annotations. An empty TSV after FINISHED means no reported matches, not evidence that the protein lacks function.

submit
Submit one or more protein sequences to EMBL-EBI InterProScan for asynchronous domain and family annotation. Accepts raw protein sequence or FASTA input with at most 1,000 records, a local limit of 10,000 residues per record and a 4 MiB encoded request body limit. Returns a job_id immediately and never polls. Keep the job_id, then call status and results yourself after waiting at least 10 seconds between status checks. A lost response may represent an accepted job; do not resubmit automatically. A valid contact email is required. Set a contact email in Settings → Credentials → Literature access. This email is sent to EMBL-EBI when submitting a job. Keep the exact job_id to resume after restart. This connector adds no job registry, result cache or background polling. Cancellation, app exit and uninstall stop local requests only; this connector cannot cancel or delete remote jobs. Result expiry is controlled by EMBL-EBI. Sequences and contact email are sent to EMBL-EBI; tool inputs and outputs may be retained in conversation or Notebook persistence. Submit no more than 30 jobs in a batch and wait for processing/results before submitting more; cross-call throttling is not enforced. The existing results tool returns at most 2 MiB of TSV and rejects larger reports.

IEDB
Show operations and parameters
search_epitopes
Search IEDB epitopes with epitope, host, antigen source, MHC and evidence filters. Aggregated filters can match different experiments in the same record; use assay searches to enforce co-occurrence in one experiment. At least one biological or evidence filter is required; limit and offset alone are not filters. Database observations, not predictions. Keep negative and missing results distinct. MHC ligand elution is not a binding affinity measurement; interpret response_measured, method and units together. Parent antigens are representative proteins and may not exactly match the curated antigen or epitope sequence.

search_tcrs
Search IEDB TCR receptor groups by epitope, receptor CDR3, host, antigen, MHC and literature evidence. The sequence filter matches epitope linear_sequences; chain1_cdr3 and chain2_cdr3 match receptor chain CDR3 sequences. Includes tcr_export records with chains, curated/calculated gene annotations and linked assays and references. Filters select receptor groups; embedded export records are not individually filtered by these criteria. Aggregated host and outcome filters can match different experiments in the same group.

search_bcrs
Search IEDB BCR receptor groups by epitope, receptor CDR3, host, antigen, MHC and literature evidence. The sequence filter matches epitope linear_sequences; chain1_cdr3 and chain2_cdr3 match receptor chain CDR3 sequences. Includes bcr_export records with chains, curated/calculated gene annotations and linked assays and references. Filters select receptor groups; embedded export records are not individually filtered by these criteria. Aggregated host and outcome filters can match different experiments in the same group.
