mcp-paperswithcode

🦾 Features

Allows AI assistants to find and read papers, as well as view related code repositories for further context.

This MCP server provides an Model Context Protocol (MCP) client that can interface with the PapersWithCode API.

Additionally, helper tools are introduced to make it easier for the AI agent to make use of the information provided through the PapersWithCode API.
