## Trust breakdown

How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically against the live server, and we only credit what we can confirm. Scores are 0–100 per category. Scoring method: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring (what has changed: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring/changelog)

Scored 2026-08-24.

- **Endpoint Security**: 57/100
  - The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key.
  - Authorisation not fully verified: no authorisation is required to connect, but we couldn't read the tool list to see what that exposes.
  - HTTPS is enforced; there's no plaintext access path.
  - HSTS check failed: the Strict-Transport-Security header is absent.
  - DNSSEC check failed: this domain isn't protected by DNSSEC.
- **Transport & Reachability**: 0/100
  - Transport check failed: declared streamable-http, but the endpoint returned HTTP 503.
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 0/100
  - Schema not yet verified: we couldn't read the endpoint's schema.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 0/100
  - Stability not yet verified: not enough scan history yet (needs a 30-day window).
- **Tool Coverage**: 0/100
  - Tool coverage not yet verified: we couldn't read the endpoint's tools.
- **Capabilities**: 0/100
  - Capabilities not yet verified: we couldn't read the endpoint's capabilities.

**Unverified: 4 categories.** Categories scored 0 because we could not verify them: authentication we do not have, an unreachable endpoint, or not enough scan history. We only credit what we can confirm.

## Install

### How do I install the Biolab MCP Server server?

Biolab MCP Server is a hosted endpoint at https://srikarjy025-biolab-mcp.hf.space/mcp, so there is nothing to install locally. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

## Common questions

### What is the Biolab MCP Server server?

Biolab MCP Server is listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.srikarjy/biolab-mcp-server. Auditable MCP server for PubMed, Europe PMC, ClinicalTrials.gov, and bioRxiv/medRxiv queries. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://srikarjy025-biolab-mcp.hf.space/mcp).

### Is the Biolab MCP Server server safe to use?

Biolab MCP Server scores 23 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

### What tools does the Biolab MCP Server server expose?

Biolab MCP Server exposes 5 tools: search_pubmed, search_europepmc, search_clinicaltrials, search_biorxiv, get_retrieval. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 510 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Does the Biolab MCP Server server require authentication?

No. We connected to Biolab MCP Server without credentials and it answered, so anything it exposes is reachable by anyone who knows the address.

### Is the Biolab MCP Server server still maintained?
