Inspired by fastapi-mcp package, I (vibe-) coded {plumber2mcp}, a simple package to help add MCP support to a {plumber} API: #rstats pr('plumber.R') %>% pr_mcp(transport='stdio') %>% pr_run(port = 8000) Supports HTTP/STDIO, tool/resource definitions, and schemas

It is so hard to browse, narrow, and annotate big conference (e.g. #ASCO25) abstracts using their original web sites. For the last 1.5 years, I have been experimenting with an AI-assisted way to consume these materials. I finally was able to combine my scripts into a single web application.

AlphaFold folks: is there a place where I can batch download MSAs (.a3m files) of the human proteome? Re-running mmseq2 on all the human proteins sounds like it would be a waste of time/resources?
