What is the 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.
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.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- (Optional) Enter your OSTI E-Link Token for DOI reservation and submission features
- Start searching and analyzing scientific data directly from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client
Who is this for?
- Researchers & Academics — quickly find relevant DOE-funded literature and datasets without manual portal searching
- Data Scientists — discover and inspect metadata for scientific datasets to fuel analysis and modeling
- Grant Administrators — manage DOI registrations and verify record submissions for funded projects

How Vinkius secures
OSTI (DOE Scientific Research) for Mastra AI
Every tool call from Mastra AI to the OSTI (DOE Scientific Research) MCP Server is protected by DLP redaction, cryptographic audit chains, V8 sandbox isolation, kill switch, and financial circuit breakers.
Frequently asked questions
How can I search for research papers by a specific author?
You can use the search_osti_records tool and provide the author's name in the author parameter. The agent will return a list of matching records from the OSTI.GOV repository.
What is the difference between searching OSTI records and Data Explorer records?
Use search_osti_records for general research information like publications and reports. Use search_data_explorer_records specifically when you are looking for scientific datasets.
Can I reserve a DOI for my research before it is public?
Yes, if you have an E-Link token, you can use the reserve_doi action. You'll need to provide the title, product type, and your site ownership code.
How does Mastra AI connect to MCP servers?
Create an MCPClient with the server URL and pass it to your agent. Mastra discovers all tools and makes them available with full TypeScript types.
Can Mastra agents use tools from multiple servers?
Yes. Pass multiple MCP clients to the agent constructor. Mastra merges all tool schemas and the agent can call any tool from any server.
Does Mastra support workflow orchestration?
Yes. Mastra has a built-in workflow engine that lets you chain MCP tool calls with branching logic, error handling, and parallel execution.
