MCPSharp is a .NET library that helps you build Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers and clients - the standardized API protocol used by AI assistants and models.

The Academic Paper Search MCP Server is designed for integration with Claude Desktop, enabling users to search for academic papers and access data from sources like Semantic Scholar and Crossref. It provides real-time search functionality, allowing users to retrieve paper metadata and abstracts, and full-text content when available. The server adheres to the MCP specification, delivering structured data responses. While primarily aimed at Anthropic's Claude Desktop client, it is also compatible with other AI models and clients that support tool/function calling capabilities.
