How do I install ChEMBL-MCP-Server?

Its README did not state an install command plainly enough for us to quote one, so we do not guess. The repository has the instructions: https://github.com/Augmented-Nature/ChEMBL-MCP-Server

Is ChEMBL-MCP-Server official and is it maintained?

We found nothing naming it as a vendor’s official server. Its repository has 89 GitHub stars and its state in our directory is listed. Its last commit we recorded was on 2025-12-21.

What licence does ChEMBL-MCP-Server use?

The repository declares the NOASSERTION licence.

ChEMBL-MCP-Server

ChEMBL-MCP-Server is an MCP server, listed under databases. Its repository has 89 GitHub stars and is licensed under NOASSERTION; we last read it on 2026-10-22.

This server provides advanced access to the ChEMBL chemical database through the Model Context Protocol (MCP).

Install

MCP servers are packaged differently from each other -- some run via npx, some as a Docker image, some as a plain script you clone and run. ChEMBL-MCP-Server’s own README did not state one plainly enough for this page to quote it rather than guess, so it will not guess. The repository below states it.
