Capabilities

What this server is able to do. For an MCP server this is often the job itself — a terminal server runs commands because that is what it is for. Listed so you know what you are plugging in, not as an accusation.

Runs an external command index.mjs:20, [пакет] index.mjs:20
const child = spawn(process.execPath, [proxy, URL, '--header', `x-api-key:${key}`], { stdio: 'inherit' });

Is this your server and something here is wrong? Tell us — corrections are free and do not require a plan.

This code can reach further than it looks

We found places where it runs commands, builds paths or queries from values it is given. None of that is a flaw by itself — it becomes one when the code changes, and code changes quietly between releases. We re-read it on every one.

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

hasdata
hasdata_google_scholar_case_law_getScholarCaseLawOpinion
Get Scholar Case Law Opinion Looks up a Google Scholar Case Law opinion by its `caseId` (as returned in a google/scholar organic result's `caseId`, when searching with `asSdt` set to a case-law court scope, or in another case-law result's `citedCases`). Returns the case title, party names, court, procedural history, argued/decided dates, short citations, docket numbers, and every case cited within the opinion (grouped by cited case with a ready-to-call `hasdataLink`). Use to build legal-research and case-law-analysis workflows, or to walk a citation graph one cited case at a time.
hasdata_google_scholar_cite_getScholarCitationFormats
Get Scholar Citation Formats Looks up citation formats and export links for a single Google Scholar organic search result, identified by its `resultId` (as returned in a google/scholar organic result). Returns formatted citation snippets (MLA, APA, Chicago, Harvard, Vancouver) and reference-manager export links (BibTeX, EndNote, RefMan, RefWorks). Use to build citation/bibliography features or complete a research workflow started with google/scholar.
hasdata_google_scholar_scholar_getScholarSearchResults
Get Scholar Search Results Scrapes Google Scholar for a query with author:/source: search helpers, year range (asYlo/asYhi), cited-by and all-versions lookups (cites/cluster), review-article and citation-inclusion filters, language/language-restrict, start/num pagination, and asSdt to scope to case law (asSdt=2006 for all courts, 2003 for Federal courts only, or 4/6/3 plus comma-separated court codes for specific courts) or toggle patents. Returns each organic result with title, link, snippet, publication info (authors with profile links), cited-by count and link, related-articles link, and all-versions count and link; a case-law result links to a scholar_case?case= page and carries a ready-to-call caseHasdataLink. Use for academic research, literature review automation, citation tracking, grounding research agents with scholarly sources, and walking case law straight into google/scholar-case-law.

HasData Google Scholar — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can HasData Google Scholar do?
It exposes 3 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: hasdata_google_scholar_case_law_getScholarCaseLawOpinion, hasdata_google_scholar_cite_getScholarCitationFormats, hasdata_google_scholar_scholar_getScholarSearchResults. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is HasData Google Scholar working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 181 of 182 checks got a reply (99.5%), average response time 622 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect HasData Google Scholar?
Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does HasData Google Scholar need an API key?
No. HasData Google Scholar completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 3 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is HasData Google Scholar?
It answers our handshake in 622 ms on average, which is faster than 17% of all working MCP servers we measure. That is on the slow side — worth knowing if the tool sits inside an interactive loop. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
How many people use HasData Google Scholar?
The npm package @hasdata/google-scholar-mcp was installed 129 times in the last week. Week over week that is +444%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is HasData Google Scholar open source?
The code is open source: it is published under the MIT licence, written in JavaScript and 13 stars on GitHub. The licence covers the code in the repository, not the hosted service at mcp.hasdata.com, which runs on its operator's own terms.
