consensus.app
Consensus is a research search service that helps users find and review peer-reviewed academic papers. Its product focuses on searching a large corpus of scientific literature and returning structured paper results and citations.
Consensus exposes a REST API at `https://api.consensus.app` for paper search and an OAuth-enabled MCP server at `https://mcp.consensus.app/mcp`; enterprise API-key access is also documented for MCP.

- Consensus APIdiscovered
Request enterprise/API access from Build with the Consensus API using the Request access flow. Consensus's MCP docs state that enterprise access provides an API key, which you send as Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY for MCP, and the OpenAPI for the REST API defines an x-api-key header security scheme.
Point your MCP client at the server URL and approve access in the browser. The server supports OAuth Dynamic Client Registration (RFC 7591), so the client registers itself automatically — no developer-portal app, client_id, or client_secret to create.
