Question 1

What does the server do?

Accepted Answer

It provides a comprehensive API for searching, filtering, and analyzing Indian medicine data, including fuzzy name matching, composition analysis, and alternative suggestions with price savings.

Question 2

What data does the server use?

Accepted Answer

The server loads a JSON file of medicines. The default path is `/Users/siddharthbajpai/Downloads/MCP_SERVER/medicines.json`. Each medicine record includes fields like Name, Manufacturer, Composition, MRP, Prescription requirement, and processed fields like Active_Ingredients and Price_Category.

Question 3

How many API endpoints are available?

Accepted Answer

The server exposes 15 endpoints divided into search, filter, analysis, and utility categories. Endpoints include `get_medicine_by_name`, `search_medicines`, `fuzzy_search_by_name`, `search_by_composition`, `filter_by_price_range`, `filter_by_manufacturer`, `filter_by_prescription_requirement`, `paginated_search`, `find_similar_medicines`, `analyze_composition`, `count_medicines_by_composition`, `categorize_medicines`, and `get_medicine_statistics`.

Question 4

What credentials does it need?

Accepted Answer

It reads `DATA_PATH` from the environment. Store these in your client's env block or a secrets manager — never commit them to a repository — and grant the narrowest scope that still covers your use case.
