Summary
Gives Claude access to the Bioregistry, a meta-registry of biomedical identifier prefixes used across genomics, proteomics, and clinical databases. Exposes four tools: look up prefix metadata, substring search over prefixes, resolve CURIEs like "uniprot:P12345" to provider URLs, and paginate through all registered prefixes. Useful when you're working with biological data identifiers and need to validate prefixes, find the right namespace for a dataset, or generate canonical URLs for database entries. Part of the Pipeworx gateway, so you can either connect to this single server or get it bundled with 250+ other data sources through their unified endpoint.
Keep your Mac awake while Claude Code and 40+ AI agents run. Sleeps when they're idle.
