Evipedia MCP Server
A small Model Context Protocol server that lets AI agents query evipedia.ai — our continuously-updated encyclopedia of evidence reviews on health & longevity interventions — and suggest new interventions for review.
Tools
search_reviews(query)→ matching reviews (name/synonym/keyword/category), each with its URL and conclusionlist_reviews()→ the full catalogue as{topic, slug}pairs (canonical topic + the slug you pass toget_review/get_conclusion)get_conclusion(slug|url)→ just the review's plain-text conclusionget_review(slug|url)→ the full review as raw Markdownget_metadata(slug|url)→ structured medical metadata as JSON — review dates (datePublished/dateModified/lastReviewed, a freshness signal not in the Markdown), the typedaboutentity with alternate names, and an orderedcitationlist with PubMed PMIDsThe read tools accept either a bare slug (e.g.
rapamycin) or a full evipedia.ai URL (e.g.https://evipedia.ai/rapamycin) — the URL's last path segment is the slug, so a search result's URL can be passed straight through.suggest_intervention(intervention, goal?, references?, email?)→ submit a new intervention to evipedia's public suggestion form (the same one at evipedia.ai/suggest)get_version()→ the running server's package name and version
Install (local or remote)
The server is published to npm as evipedia-mcp and runs over stdio via npx — no global install needed. It's also listed in the official MCP Registry as io.github.forever-healthy/evipedia-mcp, so MCP-aware clients can discover and install it automatically.
Client config: Local MCP (Requires Node.js ≥ 18)
{
"mcpServers": {
"evipedia": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "evipedia-mcp"]
}
}
}
For environments where a local install is not possible or desired, we also provide a hosted MCP server at https://mcp.evipedia.ai/ that can be used over HTTP.
Client config: Remote MCP via HTTP
{
"mcpServers": {
"evipedia": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://mcp.evipedia.ai/mcp"
}
}
}

.mcp.json(or runclaude mcp add). - Claude Desktop — add to
claude_desktop_config.json. - Cursor — add to the MCP settings.
Try it
You can use the bundled /demo skill to smoke-test the respective connection.
It walks through the read tools (get_version, search_reviews, list_reviews, get_review, get_conclusion, get_metadata) against live evipedia.ai data.
Architecture
The server is a thin client that only uses evipedia.ai's public endpoints. It does not depend on the evipedia content repo — the public surfaces are the API by design.
- Fetches live from
https://evipedia.aiwith a small in-process cache (both JSON indexes are tiny) - Mostly read-only, no auth required. The one write path is
suggest_intervention, which POSTs to evipedia's public suggestion form (Formspree)
