About OSTI (DOE Scientific Research) MCP Server

Connect to the Office of Scientific and Technical Information (OSTI) to query the US Department of Energy's vast research output. This MCP server allows AI agents to navigate millions of research records and datasets through natural conversation.

The OpenAI Agents SDK auto-discovers all 6 tools from OSTI (DOE Scientific Research) through native MCP integration. Build agents with built-in guardrails, tracing, and handoff patterns. chain multiple agents where one queries OSTI (DOE Scientific Research), another analyzes results, and a third generates reports, all orchestrated through Vinkius.

What you can do

Research Search — Query OSTI.GOV for publications, reports, and conference papers using authors, titles, or specific identifiers.
Dataset Discovery — Search the DOE Data Explorer specifically for scientific datasets and retrieve detailed metadata for data-driven insights.
Record Inspection — Fetch comprehensive bibliographic data and full-text availability for specific records using unique OSTI IDs.
DOI Management — Reserve and submit Digital Object Identifiers (DOIs) via the E-Link API for DOE-funded scientific research and data.
Advanced Filtering — Narrow down results by sponsoring organization, research organization, or specific publication date ranges.

The OSTI (DOE Scientific Research) MCP Server exposes 6 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to OpenAI Agents SDK in under two minutes — credentials fully managed, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.
