Frequently Asked Questions

What is the PatSnap (Patent Analytics) MCP server?: PatSnap (Patent Analytics) is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server profile on explainx.ai. MCP lets AI hosts (e.g. Claude Desktop, Cursor) call tools and resources through a standard interface; this page summarizes categories, install hints, and community ratings.
How do MCP servers relate to agent skills?: Skills are reusable instruction packages (often SKILL.md); MCP servers expose live capabilities. Teams frequently combine both—skills for workflows, MCP for APIs and data. See explainx.ai/skills and explainx.ai/mcp-servers for parallel directories.
How are reviews shown for PatSnap (Patent Analytics)?: This profile displays 45 aggregated ratings (sample rows for discoverability plus signed-in user reviews). Average score is about 4.8 out of 5—verify behavior in your own environment before production use.

get_patent_trends: Analyze annual application and issued trends for patents. Understand the trends of patents related to specific technology fields or keywords. Either keywords or IPC classification must be specified.

get_word_cloud: Obtain a snapshot of frequently occurring keywords/phrases from the most recent 5,000 published patents. Identify common terms for refining searches. Returns up to 100 keywords. Either keywords or IPC classification must be specified.

get_wheel_of_innovation: Provides a two-tiered hierarchical view of keywords/phrases in a technology space. Identify common terms and their associations. Based on the most recent 5,000 publications. Either keywords or IPC classification must be specified.

get_most_cited_patents: View the top patents cited most frequently by others, indicating influential or core technology. Returns at most Top 10 patents. Note: Search must contain either keywords or IPC. If both are provided, IPC is prioritized.

get_top_authorities_of_origin: Returns the top authorities (priority countries) of origin for patents matching the criteria. Analyze main sources of priority filings. Either keywords or IPC classification must be specified.

get_top_inventors: Shows the top inventors in the technology field. Evaluate top performers or identify potential recruits. Returns up to the top 10 inventors. Note: Search must contain either keywords or IPC. If both are provided, IPC is prioritized.

get_top_assignees: Shows the top companies (assignees) with the largest patent portfolios. Identify largest players and competitive threats. Returns up to the top 10 assignees. Note: Search must contain either keywords or IPC. If both are provided, IPC is prioritized.

get_simple_legal_status: Provides a breakdown of the simple legal status (e.g., Active, Inactive, Pending) for patents in the technology field. Understand the proportion of patents currently in effect. Note: Search must contain either keywords or IPC. If both are provided, IPC is prioritized.

Configuration for MCP Host

To integrate this MCP server with your MCP Host, add the following configuration to your cline_mcp_settings.json file (path may vary based on your host setup):

{ "mcpServers": { "@kunihiros/patsnap-mcp": { "command": "npx", "args": ["@kunihiros/patsnap-mcp"], "env": { "PATSNAP_CLIENT_ID": "your_patsnap_client_id_here", "PATSNAP_CLIENT_SECRET": "your_patsnap_client_secret_here" }, "disabled": false, "autoApprove": [] } } }

Ensure you replace your_patsnap_client_id_here and your_patsnap_client_secret_here with your actual PatSnap API credentials. This configuration allows the MCP Host to invoke the server using npx @kunihiros/patsnap-mcp.
