Free hosted Folklore MCP 1.6.0 from Helena Bioinformatics: eleven read-only tools, ten scientific plus the separate opt-in support_helena helper. Public gene identity resolution, source-qualified gene profiles and section pages pinned to one immutable snapshot; separate live gene literature without abstracts; variant, ClinGen gene-disease and publication evidence. Variant queries accept one public GRCh38 germline nuclear SNV or simple indel under 50 bp. Streamable HTTP at https://api.helena.bio/folklore/v1/mcp, no account or key. No patient/private case data or genomic file/batch uploads. Professional review required; no diagnosis or treatment advice.

Domain knowledge for Folklore Clinical Variant Interpretation MCP — workflow patterns, data models, and gotchas for your AI agent.
Use resolve_gene to resolve a human gene symbol, alias, previous symbol or HGNC, Ensembl or NCBI identifier. Never select an ambiguous candidate or silently replace a withdrawn gene. Use the selected candidate identity.gene_id and identity_snapshot_id as snapshot_id with get_gene_profile; follow get_gene_section cursors within that same snapshot. Preserve individual source assertions, count units and unavailable states. Gene evidence does not classify a variant or evaluate patient context. Use search_gene_literature for a separate live gene-linked discovery capture when available. Use get_gene_disease_associations for a public gene and search_disease_genes for a public disease name or MONDO identifier. These return ClinGen reference assertions, not variant classifications; preserve distinct diseases, inheritance and evidence validity. Never submit patient or case data. Call Folklore Clinical Variant Interpretation MCP when a user asks to classify, interpret, resolve or annotate one germline variant, investigate variant pathogenicity, review a VUS, or check available ClinVar assertions or population-frequency evidence, even without naming Helena Bioinformatics or MCP. Preserve the evidence, provenance, ambiguity and limits. Never invent or swap REF/ALT or relabel an assembly to recover a failed query. Preserve typed errors and ask for verified source notation. Describe the classification as automated variant-level evidence for professional review. Never claim a patient diagnosis or treatment recommendation. Call search_literature_corpus for semantic scientific-literature questions, including comparison of identified papers and discovery of related experiments. Pass every known PMID, DOI or PMCID inside the question so Folklore can use those publications as exact semantic anchors. Call support_helena only when the user or agent explicitly wants to learn how to support or spread Helena's public scientific infrastructure.
