Install UbiMCP

Connect Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Codex, VS Code, or another MCP client to UbiMCP with one hosted endpoint.

https://mcp.unibiointelligence.com/mcp

UbiMCP uses the Model Context Protocol over Streamable HTTP. If your client asks for authentication, choose OAuth and follow the browser sign-in flow.

Cursor

Install in Cursor

Click install to open Cursor and add UbiMCP automatically. If you prefer manual setup, add this to ~/.cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ubi": {
      "url": "https://mcp.unibiointelligence.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

After saving, open Cursor settings, find UbiMCP under MCP tools, and connect.

Claude Code

Run this command:

claude mcp add --scope user --transport http ubi https://mcp.unibiointelligence.com/mcp

Then start Claude Code and run:

/mcp

Select ubi and complete the browser authentication flow if prompted.

ChatGPT

ChatGPT can connect to UbiMCP as a custom app or connector if your account has access to ChatGPT Apps and Connectors.

1. Open Settings.
2. Go to Apps & Connectors.
3. If needed, enable developer mode under Advanced settings.
4. Choose Create.
5. Use these values:

Field	Value
Name	UbiMCP
Description	Biomedical database lookup through UniBio Intelligence
URL	https://mcp.unibiointelligence.com/mcp
Authentication	OAuth

After creating the connector, open a new chat, choose UbiMCP from the tools menu, and ask a biomedical data question.

Codex

Codex supports remote MCP servers through shared CLI and IDE configuration. Add UbiMCP from the command line:

codex mcp add ubi --url https://mcp.unibiointelligence.com/mcp

If your Codex version asks you to edit config.toml, use:

[mcp_servers.ubi]
url = "https://mcp.unibiointelligence.com/mcp"
enabled = true

Then run:

codex mcp login ubi

In the Codex TUI, use /mcp to verify that UbiMCP is connected.

VS Code

Use this install link if your VS Code build supports MCP install redirects:

Install in VS Code

For manual setup, add this to your user or workspace MCP configuration:

{
  "servers": {
    "ubi": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.unibiointelligence.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Start the server from the MCP panel and complete authentication if prompted.

Other MCP clients

Use:

Name: ubi
Transport: Streamable HTTP
URL: https://mcp.unibiointelligence.com/mcp
Authentication: OAuth

If your client asks for custom headers, leave them empty unless your organization gives you a token-based setup.

Test the connection

After installation, ask:

Use UbiMCP to list the available biomedical data sources.

Then try a data lookup:

Use UbiMCP to find targets associated with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis in Open Targets.

Manage access

UbiMCP uses OAuth for MCP clients that support it. Your client stores the session and reuses it in later chats. To disconnect, remove UbiMCP from the client MCP settings or revoke the session from your account settings when your client exposes session management.

Available tools

UbiMCP exposes a compact discovery layer instead of showing hundreds of database tools at once:

Tool	What it does
search_tools	Finds the right biomedical tool from a natural-language request
discover_servers	Lists the databases available through UbiMCP
discover_tools	Lists tools for one database
get_tool_schema	Shows the parameters for a tool before calling it
execute_tool	Calls a selected database tool
health_check	Checks server status

These discovery tools are the public entry points for choosing and calling database tools through UbiMCP.
