README

DOAJ MCP — Directory of Open Access Journals. Curated peer-reviewed open-access journal index. No auth.

Part of Pipeworx — an MCP gateway connecting AI agents to 1394+ live data sources.

Tools

  • search_articles(query, page?, page_size?, sort?)
  • search_journals(query, page?, page_size?, sort?)
  • get_article(id)
  • get_journal(id)

Data source

https://doaj.org/api/ — public, no auth needed. Generous rate limits.

Quick Start

Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "doaj": {
      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/doaj/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway for access to all 1394+ data sources:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pipeworx": {
      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Using with ask_pipeworx

Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English:

ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Doaj data" })

The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
