BioMCP: Biomedical Model Context Protocol
BioMCP is an open-source toolkit designed to augment AI assistants and agents with specialized biomedical knowledge. It leverages the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to provide structured access to authoritative biomedical data sources like clinical trials, literature, and genomic variants, bridging the gap of domain-specific information often lacking in general LLMs.

Biomedical via MCP is exactly the right abstraction. Works reliably in production environments.

The biomcp integration saves writing a lot of boilerplate. The lightweight performance is impressive for an open-source tool.

Dropped this into flexible pipeline and it just worked. Runs fine on Apple Silicon.
