Scientific Figure Library Overview
scientific-figure-library is a local-first MCP server and MCP App for storing, reviewing, publishing, and reusing scientific figures with their code. It keeps one user-selected library on disk, uses immutable releases and confirmation gates, and materializes an exact template into a project only after approval. Reach for it when you need shared, versioned figure templates across Claude, Codex, Cursor, Pi, dsh, Wisp, or another stdio MCP host without executing plotting code through the server.
- Publish reviewed figure-and-code pairs for reuse
- Search local scientific figure templates across projects
- Confirm and materialize an exact immutable release
- Back up, restore, or fork a figure library
