Discovery Engine Overview

The leap-laboratories/discovery-engine MCP server analyzes tabular data to find feature interactions, subgroup effects, and conditional relationships that may be missed by hypothesis-driven exploration. It sends analysis requests to Disco through a hosted MCP endpoint, where patterns are validated on held-out data, corrected for multiple testing, and checked against academic literature. Results include conditions, effect sizes, p-values, support counts, citations, novelty classifications, and an interactive report URL. Reach for it when you need to discover relationships in a dataset rather than perform routine filtering, visualization, SQL queries, or summary statistics.
