Security Report
8.2
Low Risk8.2Low RiskThis is a well-structured NSF Awards MCP server with no authentication requirements (appropriate for a free public API) and clean code. Input validation is present via URLSearchParams encoding and type-safe field mapping. The server correctly scopes permissions to read-only HTTP access to the NSF public API. Minor quality concerns around error handling breadth and input validation strictness do not materially impact security.

Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):
{
"mcpServers": {
"nsf-awards": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/nsf-awards/mcp"
}
}
}
Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway for access to all 673+ 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 Nsf Awards data" })
The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
