At a Glance & Executive Verdict
Repo Graph
Biology & Bioinformatics · Local stdio
Quality: 55/100 (Good) | Auth: No auth required
Clarity Mcp
Biology & Bioinformatics · Local stdio
Quality: 56/100 (Good) | Auth: No auth required
Verdict Summary: Choose Repo Graph if you need specialized Biology & Bioinformatics tools running via a local process. Choose Clarity Mcp if your workspace requires Biology & Bioinformatics integration with local subprocess execution. Both servers can be configured concurrently in your client's mcpServers manifest.
Which MCP Server Should You Choose?
Choose Repo Graph when:
You need dedicated capabilities in the Biology & Bioinformatics domain.
You prefer local stdio subprocess transport architecture.
Your security boundary fits: No auth required (Free / Open Source).
Structural graph map of any codebase for AI coding assistants. Scans entities, relationships, and feature flows across 13 languages so LLMs navigate by structure instead of grepping through everything.
Condition-aware ingredient, product & supplement safety for agents, with provenance on every answer — a verdict, an evidence tier (Gold/Silver/Bronze), and a verifiable citation — across breastfeeding, pregnancy, histamine/MCAS, rosacea, HS, allergy and fertility lenses. 9 tools incl. validateclaim (fact-check a claim against curated cited sources) and checkrecall (FDA/consumer recall lookup by brand with Class I flagging and source URLs).

Category & Scope
Tools & Capabilities Breakdown
Repo Graph Tools (6)
orient
The first call on a repo: node/edge counts, detected kinds, entry points, and a **blind-spots** note flagging which languages/edges are under-linked (so you grep those deliberately). `seed=<node>` → scoped map; `full=true` → whole-repo dense map
find
Turn any text into the ranked nodes that matter — a symbol/keyword, or a pasted stacktrace / failing-test id / diff (resolved to the code it implicates). `expand=true` fans out to the surrounding neighbourhood. Every row carries `path:line
impact
Blast radius: what a change affects (`forward`) or depends on / is used by (`backward`), as a ranked, located closure — each row with the edge `via` reason and a `⊘` when the engine finds it unreachable (likely dead). Pass several nodes for a whole-diff radius
trace
One arg: a feature end-to-end across the stack, each hop labelled with its mechanism (call / HTTP / queue / event) and cross-service hops marked. Two args: the shortest path between two nodes
Ready-to-Paste Client Configurations
Paste either (or both) of these JSON server blocks into your client config file (e.g. claude_desktop_config.json or ~/.cursor/mcp.json).
Repo Graph is categorized under Biology & Bioinformatics and uses a local stdio subprocess. In contrast, Clarity Mcp belongs to Biology & Bioinformatics using local stdio subprocess. Select Repo Graph when you need capabilities focused on biology & bioinformatics and Clarity Mcp when you require tools for biology & bioinformatics.
A node's exact source, sliced from its file by the graph's line span, plus a `context:` footer (HTTP method, cross-stack callers, covering tests, governing docs). Comma-separate to batch-read a ranked set
refresh
Rebuild the graph (incremental by default — only changed files re-parse). `repo_path` retargets a different path or git URL; `full=true` forces a clean reparse. Routine edits are auto-picked-up by the file watcher
Clarity Mcp Tools (9)
check_ingredient
Verdict + evidence tier + citation for a cosmetic/food/supplement ingredient, under one condition lens or several at once (`lenses: [..]`)
check_stack
Audit a supplement stack in one call: per-item condition verdicts plus every curated interaction within the stack
find_alternatives
Safer same-category swaps for a flagged product — general quality-score ranked, lens-flag screened, coverage-honest (food/skincare; verify the pick with `scan_barcode`)
strain_lookup
Verdict, tier, PMID citation and safety flags for a cannabis or mushroom species/strain
scan_barcode
Look up a product by UPC/EAN, flag its ingredients for a condition lens, and surface any active FDA recall
validate_claim
Fact-check a free-text health claim against Clarity's curated position — supports / contradicts / does-not-cover, with citation
