Install: not published to npm or any other package registry. Clone and build the ga4gh-plugins repository, then run this package's standalone stdio MCP server with Node, using an absolute path:
git clone https://github.com/susheel/ga4gh-plugins.git
cd ga4gh-plugins && pnpm install && pnpm run build
GA4GH_HTSGET_ALLOW_UNENFORCED_MCP=true GA4GH_HTSGET_BASE_URL=https://your-htsget-endpoint.example.org \
node /absolute/path/to/ga4gh-plugins/packages/htsget/lib/bin.jsThe standalone server has no GA4GH policy enforcement point in scope and refuses to start unless GA4GH_HTSGET_ALLOW_UNENFORCED_MCP=true is set. Run the Cordis plugin instead where GA4GH Passport/Visa policy enforcement is required.
