Summary
Wraps the openFDA API to give Claude access to FDA drug, device, and food enforcement data without requiring authentication. Part of the Pipeworx gateway ecosystem, which offers a streamable HTTP transport and an ask_pipeworx tool that interprets natural language questions and routes them to the appropriate API endpoints automatically. Useful when you need to query adverse event reports, recall information, or drug labeling data directly from conversations. The source doesn't list specific tools, but openFDA's public API covers drug adverse events, recalls, NDC directories, and device classification datasets. Free tier, no API keys needed, and you can use it standalone or as part of Pipeworx's 673+ data source collection.

Quick Start
Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):
{
"mcpServers": {
"openfda": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/openfda/mcp"
}
}
}
Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway for access to all 673+ data sources:
{
"mcpServers": {
"pipeworx": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp"
}
}
}
Using with ask_pipeworx
Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English:
ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Openfda data" })
The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
