**Open-source scientific research platform — web interface for the [scitex](https://github.com/ywatanabe1989/scitex-python) ecosystem.**

Provides Scholar, Writer, Vis, Console, and Hub modules as a Django web application with Docker deployment, plus a pip-installable CLI and MCP server for AI integration.

> **Status**: Alpha (data may be lost)

## Four Freedoms for Research

0. The freedom to **run** your research anywhere — your machine, your terms.
1. The freedom to **study** how every step works — from raw data to final manuscript.
2. The freedom to **redistribute** your workflows, not just your papers.
3. The freedom to **modify** any module and share improvements with the community.

AGPL-3.0 — because research infrastructure deserves the same freedoms as the software it runs on.

## Installation

```bash
pip install scitex-cloud              # CLI only
pip install scitex-cloud[mcp]         # CLI + MCP server
pip install scitex-cloud[all]         # Everything
```
