alperenkocyigit/authorprofilemcp

This server plugs into Semantic Scholar, OpenAlex, Crossref, and Google Scholar to map academic collaboration networks. You get two main operations: find all co-authors for a researcher by name and institution, and extract research keywords from their Google Scholar profile. It handles rate limiting across APIs, caches results to avoid redundant calls, and merges data from multiple sources. Reach for this when you're doing literature reviews, building research teams, or need to quickly understand someone's network and expertise areas without manually clicking through profile pages. The Google Scholar scraping includes delays to stay respectful of rate limits.
