PaperSearch MCP Server

Example Use Cases

• 1

  Search a local corpus of academic papers via a PaperSearch service.

• 2

  Integrate PaperSearch as an MCP server endpoint in a claude_desktop configuration.

• 3

  Launch PaperSearch using a wrapper executable ('uv') pointing at a specific papers directory.

Description

This repository snippet provides a claude_desktop_config.json entry defining an mcpServers.papersearch target that runs a 'uv' executable with arguments to start PaperSearch against a specified directory. It is intended to let agent frameworks (e.g., Claude Desktop) invoke a local PaperSearch instance as an MCP server, enabling searchable access to a directory of papers. The README links to a blog post for additional context but contains only the configuration fragment, so users must supply the actual binary and paper directory paths.
