darus-mcp is a lightweight MCP server that exposes read-oriented tools for the DaRUS Dataverse instance at https://darus.uni-stuttgart.de and MathModDB at https://mathmoddb-mcp.up.railway.app.

It is built with FastMCP and pyDataverse, so MCP clients can search DaRUS content and retrieve dataset/file metadata through a standard MCP interface.

• Python >=3.12
• uv (recommended for dependency management)

uv sync

uv run python main.py

This starts the MCP server over stdio.

• The project currently pins fastmcp==2.14.5.
• pyDataverse is installed from the fix-ci branch.
