NetworkX MCP Server

Example Use Cases

• 1

  Resolve DOIs and fetch publication metadata from CrossRef to seed citation networks.

• 2

  Compute author impact metrics (h-index, total citations) and analyze co-authorship and citation patterns.

• 3

  Create, manipulate, visualize, and export academic graphs (PNG visualizations, BibTeX export, NetworkX graph operations).

Description

A researcher-focused MCP server that integrates NetworkX graph operations with CrossRef DOI resolution to support citation-network construction, author-impact metrics, literature discovery, collaboration analysis, and visualization. It exposes >20 graph functions (PageRank, centrality, components, shortest paths), academic-specific tools (h-index, BibTeX export, paper recommendations), and simple I/O/visualization for publication-ready outputs. Designed to run locally as a Python module or CLI and to be used inside conversational agents (e.g., Claude) for reproducible academic workflows. Emphasizes ease-of-use for literature reviews, collaboration mapping, and trend detection.
