Install & configure

Install in your client

Paste into the AI you're chatting with — it will figure out the rest

Please install the `nihr` MCP server into my current AI client (that's you).

Canonical MCP server config (HTTP transport):
- url: `https://gateway.pipeworx.io/nihr/mcp`

Note: README provides a direct remote MCP endpoint for the Nihr server via the Pipeworx gateway. No authentication, API key, or local installation is required. README also mentions an alternative broader gateway endpoint at https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp for all Pipeworx data sources, but the server-specific endpoint is the canonical config for Nihr.

Add this MCP server to my current client's config in the correct format for you. If you need secrets or credentials I haven't provided, ASK me — do not invent values or leave raw placeholders. After adding it, tell me how to verify the server is connected.
