ORCID public researcher records (works, employment, education)

Part of Pipeworx — an MCP gateway connecting AI agents to 250+ live data sources.

Tools

Tool	Description
`record`	Full public record by ORCID iD (e.g. "0000-0001-5109-3700").
`works`	Works (publication) summaries with put-codes.
`work`	Single work record by put-code.
`employment`	Employment summary.
`education`	Education summary.
`search`	Expanded search (Solr-style query) across the ORCID Registry.

Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "orcid": {
      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/orcid/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway for access to all 250+ data sources:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pipeworx": {
      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English:

ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Orcid data" })

The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
