Talindrew MCP

An official MCP server providing 90 molecular biology tools including plasmid mapping, restriction digests, gel simulation, primer design, CRISPR guide design, cloning workspace simulation, literature search, and electronic lab notebook integration. It allows AI agents to perform complex molecular biology workflows via Streamable HTTP with OAuth authentication.

This server is operated by the named third party. Listing and endpoint checks are not an endorsement or a security audit. Review the operator's permissions, terms, and data handling before connecting. How listings are checked and corrected.

Claude Code

Run this once in a terminal. It registers the remote server. Use --scope project to write .mcp.json for the repo.
Claude Code configuration
claude mcp add --transport http talindrew-mcp https://mcp.talindrew.com/mcp

Codex

Run this once. Codex stores MCP servers in ~/.codex/config.toml (or .codex/config.toml in a trusted project).
Codex configuration
codex mcp add talindrew-mcp --url https://mcp.talindrew.com/mcp

Cursor

Merge this server into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, then enable talindrew-mcp in your MCP settings.
Cursor configuration
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "talindrew-mcp": {
      "url": "https://mcp.talindrew.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Cline

Merge this into cline_mcp_settings.json (Cline → MCP Servers → Configure).
Cline configuration
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "talindrew-mcp": {
      "type": "streamableHttp",
      "url": "https://mcp.talindrew.com/mcp",
      "disabled": false
    }
  }
}

VS Code

Merge this server into .vscode/mcp.json. Use MCP: List Servers to start talindrew-mcp and inspect its tools.
VS Code configuration
{
  "servers": {
    "talindrew-mcp": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.talindrew.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Gemini CLI

Run this once. It writes .gemini/settings.json in the current project; pass --scope user for ~/.gemini/settings.json.
Gemini CLI configuration
gemini mcp add --transport http talindrew-mcp https://mcp.talindrew.com/mcp

Claude Desktop

Merge this into claude_desktop_config.json (macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/, Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\), then restart Claude Desktop.
Claude Desktop configuration
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "talindrew-mcp": {
      "url": "https://mcp.talindrew.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Windsurf

Merge this into ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json, then refresh MCP in Cascade. Windsurf remote servers use serverUrl, not url.
Windsurf configuration
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "talindrew-mcp": {
      "serverUrl": "https://mcp.talindrew.com/mcp"
    }
  }
