write = sends, deletes, buys or postsRead from the package source without running it. The installed server may list more.
find_datasetWhere to find a DATASET (with a citable DOI) to replicate with. The replication-radar MCP does NOT search datasets itself — that is the OpenAIRE MCP's job. Call this when the user asks the Radar to find data/a dataset: it returns instructions to use the OpenAIRE MCP's dataset search and how to cite the result by DOI. Do not answer 'I can't search datasets' — hand off to the OpenAIRE MCP as describ
find_independent_softwareReusable method software for *replicating* a claim — engines NOT authored by the original paper's team (author-disjoint), ranked by reuse signal — a resolvable code repository + Software Heritage archival + downloads + GitHub stars (the signal that separates an established tool from a one-off study repo) — not citations. Each result carries its `stars` and `rank_score`. Pass the original paper's D
radarImpact-ranked replication targets in a research field.
replication_statusHas this DOI been independently replicated, and did it hold? Returns every Science Live verdict — pulled LIVE from the nanopub network, any signer (author-agnostic) — with the validation status, CiTO relation, the replication's repository, and links to the signed Outcome/CiTO nanopubs. 'open' if not replicated. This is the reliability signal the OpenAIRE Graph structurally cannot hold.
replication_templateThe FORRT replication template — how to actually DO a replication and publish its signed Science Live nanopublication chain (the 'produce' half of the loop; radar / replication_status / find_independent_software only DISCOVER). Call this whenever the user wants to start, scaffold, or set up a replication, or asks for "the FORRT replication template". Returns the GitHub template repo (https://githu
verified_claimsList every claim the nanopub network holds a Science Live replication verdict for (author-agnostic, network-wide) — the verified-knowledge corpus that overlays the OpenAIRE Graph by DOI. Each entry: doi, distinct verdicts, number of replications.

A tool that makes the OpenAIRE Graph more useful for replication. Search a research field and it answers the question the Graph structurally cannot: what high-impact work is worth replicating, has it already been independently checked — with what verdict — and is the software reusable?
Ships as a live web app (the link above — pure static, queries OpenAIRE + the nanopub network + GitHub/Software Heritage from the browser) and an MCP server (this package) that exposes the same engine to any agent. Built for the OpenAIRE AI Hackathon (Theme B), CC-BY.
OpenAIRE's only value signal is citation-popularity (BIP! influence / popularity / impulse, classes C1–C5) — paper-bound, and orthogonal to whether a claim is true. The Radar joins three sources to add a replication layer on top:
- OpenAIRE Graph — impact-ranks candidate papers (api.openaire.eu/graph/v1).
- Software Heritage + repo signals — surfaces reusable method software.
- Science Live nanopub verdicts — the "already checked → did it hold" overlay.

forrt-replication-template:
discovery at the start of a replication, where the template's existing skills
handle the nanopub chain at the end.
Tools
The verdict tools pull live from the nanopub network (the FORRT Outcome/CiTO templates on query.knowledgepixels.com); the bundled verdicts.json is an offline fallback. So the MCP is the verified-knowledge layer — pair it with the OpenAIRE MCP and an agent has both the structural Graph and "has this been checked, and did it hold".
Shortened. The full README is on GitHub.
Nothing above is checked by us. What we check is on the safety report.
Replication Radar: common questions
- Is Replication Radar MCP server safe?
- Mostly: it is graded B (80/100). Read the Replication Radar safety report
- How do I install Replication Radar?
- It runs on your machine. Copy the Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code or Claude Desktop config from the install section.
- Does Replication Radar need an API key?
- Yes. The registry entry asks for
GITHUB_TOKEN. - Is Replication Radar maintained?
- The last commit was 9 days ago (2026-10-25). The latest release is v0.4.8.
- How does Replication Radar compare with other MCP servers?
- safety score 80/100 (higher than 60% of 48,255 servers); tools 6 (the typical server has 7); tools that change things 0% (typical: 0%. Fewer write tools means less an agent can break). Full comparison.
