Claude Code orcid mcp server orcid_get_works

How to: Claude Code orcid mcp server orcid_get_works

client:Claude Code transport:streamable-http tool:orcid_get_works

Add orcid mcp server to Claude Code

  1. 01

    Run this in your project directory.

claude mcp add --transport http orcid-mcp-server https://orcid.caseyjhand.com/mcp
  1. 02

    Restart your session so the server is picked up.

  2. 03

    Ask for something orcid_get_works does. Claude Code lists the server's tools on connect and calls orcid_get_works itself — you do not invoke it by name.

  3. 04

    If nothing happens, check the server is running and that orcid mcp server's identifier in your config matches the one above exactly.

Adds it for this project only. Append --scope user to make it available everywhere. Claude Code docs

Set these first

orcid mcp server will not start until these are set, so orcid_get_works never becomes available.

  • MCP_LOG_LEVEL

Same tool, other clients

This list was read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling tools/list on 24 September 2026. It is what the server actually exposes, not what its listing claims.

Mutating and Read-only are read off each tool's name, not its schema — a hint, not a guarantee. The registry stores tool names only; connect the server for its live schemas.
