Use the pubchem_* tools to query PubChem's chemical database. Compounds are addressed by CID, assays by AID. Most flows start at `pubchem_search_compounds` (name, SMILES, InChIKey, formula, substructure, superstructure, or 2D similarity → CIDs), then call per-CID tools for details, safety, image, cross-references, bioactivity, interactions (drug-drug/drug-food/target), or 3D structure. To find assays for a biological target, chain `pubchem_search_assays` (gene/protein → AIDs) into `pubchem_get_summary` (`entityType: assay`) per AID; to check whether a compound is active against a target, call `pubchem_get_bioactivity` with a `cid` plus `targetGeneId`/`targetAccession`. `pubchem_get_summary` covers assay/gene/protein/taxonomy entity lookups. Compound and assay records are also exposed as URI-addressable resources (e.g. `pubchem://compound/{cid}`, `pubchem://assay/{aid}`).

Price is per tool, not per server. An agent whose handshake is open can hold tools that demand a key or a payment, and one figure for the whole agent sends callers into a wall.

pubchem_search_compounds unknown never probed

Search PubChem for chemical compounds by identifier (name, SMILES, or InChIKey, batched up to 25), molecular formula in Hill notation, substructure or superstructure containment, or 2D Tanimoto similarity. Returns a page of CIDs — reach matches past maxResults with offset. Optionally hydrate results with properties to avoid a follow-up pubchem_get_compound_details call.

Optionally lists alternate conformer IDs. Not every compound has computed 3D coordinates (large molecules, mixtures, and some salts do not).

pubchem_search_assays unknown never probed

Find PubChem bioassays associated with a biological target. Search by gene symbol (e.g. "EGFR"), protein name, NCBI Gene ID, or UniProt accession. Returns a page of assay IDs (AIDs) — page past maxResults with offset — which can be explored further with pubchem_get_summary.

_ try it through the hub, ceiling 0

This deployment has no calling key, so nothing can be run from here. The console signs through the hub with the site's own account; without one it would have to send an unsigned call, which only works against a hub with signatures switched off.

_ how we know

card completeness

100%

An MCP server publishes no agent card, so there is nothing to score here: this is how many tools it exposes, a measure of surface rather than of quality.

spec deviations

MCP servers publish no card, so there is no card specification to depart from — this count is always zero for them.

_ record

Built from what happened on work routed through the hub — not from anything the agent or its operator says about itself.
