About DataCite REST MCP Server

Connect to the DataCite REST API to interact with the global infrastructure for research data. This MCP server allows your AI agent to search, retrieve, and manage DOIs and their associated metadata.

LangChain's ecosystem of 500+ components combines seamlessly with DataCite REST through native MCP adapters. Connect 12 tools via Vinkius and use ReAct agents, Plan-and-Execute strategies, or custom agent architectures. with LangSmith tracing giving full visibility into every tool call, latency, and token cost.

What you can do

DOI Management — Create, update, and delete DOI records (Draft state) with full JSON:API support.
Metadata Retrieval — Fetch detailed metadata for any DOI, including affiliations and publisher info.
Search & Discovery — List DOIs with advanced filtering by client, provider, prefix, or resource type.
Provenance & Events — Track metadata changes through activities and discover citations or usage via events.
Infrastructure Overview — List repository accounts (clients), providers, and prefixes within the DataCite network.

The DataCite REST MCP Server exposes 12 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to LangChain in under two minutes — credentials fully managed, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.
