One of the most common questions researchers ask when using AI tools with scientific literature: "Can I actually access that paper?" We built Article Galaxy MCP to answer that question before you even have to ask it. Article Galaxy MCP connects directly to AI assistants like ChatGPT and Claude, letting researchers check access rights on and retrieve full-text articles without leaving their workflow. The screenshot below shows what this looks like in practice: a rights check across 14 articles, instantly categorized by access type (open access, PDF library, token access, subscription). No toggling between tabs. No copy-pasting DOIs into a separate portal. No guessing whether your institution has access. This is what it looks like when library infrastructure meets AI-native workflows. Your existing subscriptions, your token budget, your PDF library, all surfaced right where the research is happening. If you're a librarian, research ops lead, or anyone responsible for getting researchers the literature they need, I'd love to show you how this works.
