A comprehensive Model Context Protocol (MCP) server providing advanced access to the ChEMBL chemical database.
A comprehensive Model Context Protocol (MCP) server providing advanced access to the ChEMBL chemical database. That is what the chembl mcp server brings to an AI assistant: the same capability, reachable through the Model Context Protocol rather than a separate app or dashboard.
A comprehensive Model Context Protocol (MCP) server providing advanced access to the ChEMBL chemical database. This server offers 22 specialized tools enabling AI assistants and MCP clients to perform sophisticated drug discovery research, chemical informatics analysis, and bioactivity investigations directly through ChEMBL's REST API.
This comprehensive ChEMBL MCP Server is developed by Augmented Nature, a leading innovator in AI-powered bioinformatics and computational chemistry solutions. Augmented Nature specializes in creating advanced tools that bridge the gap between artificial intelligence and chemical research, enabling researchers to unlock deeper insights from chemical and biological data.
Setup follows the usual MCP pattern — install or clone the server, register it in your client's configuration file, restart the client.
The server publishes 7 tools. What each one is for:
InChI — based Search**: Find compounds by InChI key or InChI stringDose — Response Analysis**: Get dose-response data and activity profilesDrug — Likeness Assessment**: Assess drug-likeness using Lipinski Rule of Five and other metricsUser-Agent — ChEMBL-MCP-Server/1.0.0Timeout — 30 secondsPrerequisites — The Prerequisites tool exposed by this serverSetup — The Setup tool exposed by this serverPlenty of database access servers cover similar ground. The differences that matter in practice are scope of access and how much setup stands between you and a working tool call. ChEMBL's toolset — InChI, Dose, Drug and 4 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by Augmented-Nature; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
SyncDev reviews every entry in this directory against the project's own documentation before publishing, and revisits them as servers change.

Read-only SQL access to Postgres — let your assistant inspect schemas and answer questions from real data.
Manage your whole Supabase project in conversation — database, auth, storage, Edge Functions and branches.
Query, modify and analyse local SQLite databases in conversation — the fastest way to chat with a data file.
Metabase ships its own MCP endpoint — search your BI content, build and run queries, and save questions and dashboards without leaving the chat.
Official MongoDB server covering data, schemas and Atlas management — from find queries to spinning up clusters.
Serverless Postgres with database branching — point your assistant at Neon and let it work on disposable copies.
