Summary
Connects Claude to the ORCID public API for querying researcher profiles and publications. You get six tools: pull a full researcher record by ORCID iD, list their works with put-codes, fetch individual publications, grab employment and education histories, or run Solr-style searches across the entire registry. Part of the Pipeworx gateway, so you can either hit this specific data source or connect to their full catalog of 250+ APIs. Useful when you're building academic research tools, verification workflows, or anything that needs to cross-reference scholarly output with author identities. Runs over streamable HTTP, no local setup required.
Keep your Mac awake while Claude Code and 40+ AI agents run. Sleeps when they're idle.

}
}
}
Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway for access to all 673+ data sources:
