biorxiv_list_recent

io.github.cyanheads/biorxiv-mcp-server · Verify this server

List preprints posted or revised within a date interval, optionally scoped to one server or a subject category. Returns 30 preprints per page (fixed by the API); pass `cursor` as an integer offset (0, 30, 60, …) to step through additional pages. Abstracts are omitted by default to keep the page small — pass include_abstract: true for the whole page, or call biorxiv_get_preprint (up to 10 DOIs per call) for a few. When server="both" (default), per-server pagination state is returned separately — use each server's `cursor` field for independent advancement. One server failing under server="both" does not abort the call: the other server's page is still returned and the failed one is named in `failed[]`, marking the result set as partial rather than complete. Every attempted server failing is a different case and does abort the call, with a retryable upstream_unavailable (or rate_limited) error — an empty page would otherwise be indistinguishable from an interval that genuinely holds nothing. Call biorxiv_list_categories for valid category strings; a server that answers a category filter with its unfiltered listing is left out with a notice, and invalid_category is raised when no server applied it. `funder` limits the listing to bioRxiv preprints funded by that organization, given its ROR ID; an ID api.biorxiv.org has no funder record for raises invalid_funder rather than returning an empty page.
