Best for
  • Developers and managers who want to consolidate multiple data sources into a searchable knowledge base.
  • Teams that need to extract information from unstructured documents for LLM-powered applications.
  • Users already using the Graphlit platform or interested in trying it.
  • Biomedical researchers
  • Clinicians
  • AI agents that need efficient access to biomedical literature and data analysis
Not for
  • Users who only need simple web search or do not require data persistence.
  • Users who need local storage or open-source solutions, as Graphlit is a hosted cloud platform.
  • Users requiring fully offline or private deployment.
  • Users needing to write to upstream databases (read-only)
  • Users requiring direct access to closed datasets (e.g., COSMIC is not directly integrated)
  • Users expecting all advanced features without API keys
Required permissions
  • Requires Graphlit Environment ID, Organization ID, and JWT secret for authentication.
  • Optional: Data connector tokens such as Slack Bot Token, Discord Bot Token, Google OAuth credentials, etc., to access external services.
  • MCP clients need to execute npx commands, requiring network access and a Node.js environment.
  • Requires internet access to query public biomedical APIs
  • Optional API keys (NCBI, Semantic Scholar, OpenFDA, etc.) to improve rate limits or unlock features
  • Local read/write access for skills, cache, and local study data (e.g., `~/.local/share/biomcp`)
Risks and side effects
  • Data security: Connectors access external services; ensure permissions are scoped minimally.
  • Cost: Graphlit is a paid service; improper use may incur charges.
  • Credential leakage: Environment variables contain sensitive info; guard them carefully, especially in shared configs.
  • Third-party dependencies: The server is fetched via npx, introducing potential supply chain risks.
  • Upstream API rate limits may affect performance
  • Some data sources (e.g., KEGG) have licensing terms that restrict non-academic use
  • Features requiring API keys (e.g., OncoKB) may be incomplete without them
  • Local binary installations need regular updates for compatibility
