What is the OneCite MCP server?

The OneCite MCP server is an interface specifically designed for AI assistants, allowing AI assistants (such as Claude, Cursor, etc.) to directly call the core functions of OneCite. Through this server, AI assistants can help you search for academic literature, process citation information, and generate citations in various formats (such as APA, MLA, BibTeX) without you having to manually operate command - line tools.

How to use the OneCite MCP server?

You only need to configure the OneCite server in an AI assistant or editor that supports the MCP protocol, and then you can let the AI assistant help you process citations through natural language instructions. For example, you can say 'Generate an APA citation for this paper' or 'Batch process these literature citations'.

Applicable scenarios

When you are using an AI assistant for academic writing, literature review, or paper editing, you need to quickly obtain accurate citation information. It is especially suitable for researchers, students, and academic authors who need to frequently process references during the writing process.

Main features

Intelligent citation generation
Supports automatic generation of APA, MLA, BibTeX format citations from various inputs such as DOI, arXiv ID, and paper title.
Batch processing capability
Process multiple citation requests at once to improve work efficiency.
Academic literature search
Search for relevant academic literature by keywords and obtain complete citation information.
Multi - data source support
Integrates multiple authoritative academic databases such as CrossRef, Semantic Scholar, PubMed, and arXiv.
Intelligent matching and completion
Even if the input information is incomplete, it can find the most relevant literature through fuzzy matching and complete the missing information.
Advantages
Seamless integration: Perfectly integrates with AI assistants that support MCP and can be operated using natural language.
Efficient and convenient: No need to leave the writing environment, and citation processing can be completed directly in the AI dialogue.
Accurate and reliable: Based on OneCite's powerful backend processing engine, citation information is accurate and complete.
Diverse formats: Supports multiple academic citation formats such as APA, MLA, BibTeX.
Intelligent processing: Automatically identifies and completes literature information, reducing manual search time.
Limitations
Dependent on MCP support: Requires AI assistants or editors to support the MCP protocol.
Network requirements: Requires a stable network connection to access academic databases.
Configuration steps: Simple configuration steps are required for the first use.
Specific scenarios: Mainly targeted at academic citation scenarios, with certain limitations in general applicability.
