Grok clinicaltrialsgov mcp server Prompt/analyze_trial_landscape

How to: Grok clinicaltrialsgov mcp server analyze_trial_landscape

client:Grok transport:streamable-http prompt:analyze_trial_landscape

Add clinicaltrialsgov mcp server to Grok

  1. 01

    Open .mcp.json (in your project root) and merge this in. Keep any servers already there.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "clinicaltrialsgov-mcp-server": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://clinicaltrials.caseyjhand.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart Grok.

  2. 03

    analyze_trial_landscape is surfaced in the client's prompt or command menu. Unlike a tool, you invoke it deliberately — Grok will not call it for you.

  3. 04

    If it does not appear, check that clinicaltrialsgov mcp server is connected and that you are looking at its prompts rather than its tools.

Grok Build reads Claude Code's .mcp.json and Claude Desktop's config unchanged, so a server you have already set up there needs nothing new. The Grok web app and X integration do not take custom servers. Grok docs

Set these first

clinicaltrialsgov mcp server will not start until these are set, so it never reaches Grok.

Same prompt, other clients

Read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling prompts/list on 24 September 2026. A listing does not declare its prompts, so asking is the only way to know them, and this is what the server actually offers rather than what its listing claims. Names only are stored; connect the server for each prompt's arguments.
