How to Connect

Remote Plugin

No local installation needed. Your AI client connects to the remote endpoint directly.

Add this to your MCP configuration to connect:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "io-github-pipeworx-io-fda-devices": {
      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/fda-devices/mcp"
    }

FDA medical-device regulatory intelligence from keyless openFDA datasets.

Part of Pipeworx — an MCP gateway connecting AI agents to 1476+ live data sources.

Tools

ToolDescription
fda_device_510k_searchSearch FDA 510(k) premarket notifications by device, applicant, product code, or K number. Clearance means FDA found substantial equivalence; it is not an FDA approval or endorsement.
fda_device_pma_searchSearch FDA Premarket Approval (PMA) decisions and supplements by trade/generic name, applicant, product code, or PMA number. Supplements may represent manufacturing or labeling changes rather than new devices.
fda_device_recallsSearch FDA medical-device recall records by firm, product, product code, K number, status, or date. A recall record describes a correction/removal action and does not by itself establish patient harm.
fda_device_adverse_eventsSearch FDA MAUDE medical-device reports by manufacturer, brand/device, product code, event type, or PMA/510(k) number. MAUDE reports are unverified signals: they cannot establish causation, incidence, prevalence, or comparative safety.
fda_device_event_countsAggregate MAUDE reports for a device query by event type, manufacturer, product code, or receive date. Counts reflect reporting and database artifacts—not event rates or causal risk—and must not be compared without exposure denominators.
fda_device_company_profileBuild a bounded FDA regulatory snapshot for one device company across 510(k), PMA, recalls, and MAUDE. Dataset name matching is imperfect and MAUDE counts are signals, not safety rates.
fda_device_classificationLook up FDA device classification and regulatory context by product code, device name, or regulation number. Classification describes the product-code category, not a specific product’s clearance or approval.
fda_device_udi_searchSearch FDA GUDID/UDI records by brand, company, device identifier, or product code. A UDI record describes an identified device in GUDID; it does not establish current sales, availability, clearance, approval, or safety.
fda_device_establishment_searchSearch FDA device registration/listing data by firm, registration number, product code, or listing number. Registration/listing does not mean FDA approval, clearance, certification, or endorsement.
fda_device_product_code_profileBuild a bounded cross-dataset snapshot for one FDA product code: classification, recent 510(k)s, PMAs, recalls, and MAUDE reports. Dataset counts have different meanings; MAUDE counts are not event rates.

Quick Start

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

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

What this endpoint actually serves

tools/list at https://gateway.pipeworx.io/fda-devices/mcp returns the tools in the table above plus the shared Pipeworx meta-toolsask_pipeworx, discover_tools, search_within, remember/recall and the rest of the gateway-wide set. So the tool count you see is larger than this table: a single-pack endpoint currently lists roughly 30 shared tools alongside the pack's own. The connection's initialize response states its exact scope, and is the authoritative answer for a given day.

This is deliberate, not multiplexing by accident. The meta-tools are what let a scoped connection answer a question this pack does not cover — via ask_pipeworx, which routes across the whole catalog — without you adding a second MCP server. There is currently no way to mount a pack endpoint without them; if the extra schemas cost you more context than the routing is worth, connect to the full gateway once rather than to several pack endpoints.

Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway to get every pack's tools listed directly, instead of just this one's:

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

Both URLs reach the same gateway and the same 1476+ data sources. The only difference is which pack's tools are listed directly; ask_pipeworx reaches all of them from either one.

Using with ask_pipeworx

Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English — this works on the pack endpoint above as well as on the full gateway:

ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Fda Devices data" })

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