ASTM LIS Analyzer Receiver MCP Server

Let an AI agent collect and query results from clinical and laboratory analyzers (hematology, clinical chemistry, immunoassay, urinalysis, coagulation) that upload results over the standard ASTM E1381 / E1394 host interface (CLSI LIS1-A / LIS2-A2). The server acts as a small, receive-only LIS endpoint: it acknowledges the analyzer's frames, validates checksums, reassembles messages and lets the agent look results up…. Its 8 documented tools cluster into read & search, clear, reconnect.

People who work with connection and want it reachable from Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in Python.

One of 32 MCP servers published from k-dense-ai/lab-instrument-mcps. Stars and repository activity are shared across all of them. See all 32 →

01 · Install ASTM LIS Analyzer Receiver

Claude Code

claude mcp add k-dense-ai-lab-instrument-mcps-servers-h -- uvx labmcp-astm-lis

Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "k-dense-ai-lab-instrument-mcps-servers-h": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "labmcp-astm-lis"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Same JSON for Cursor. For VS Code, rename the top-level key from `mcpServers` to `servers`.

Using another client? Same JSON, different key

02 · Evidence

Security posture

What to check before giving this server access to your agent - from the registry, GitHub, and our own probes. We don't score safety; we show what's verifiable.

runs as local process (stdio) - runs on your machine with your user's permissions

repo age created 2026-09-25 - young repo, little track record yet

license Apache-2.0 - declared in the repository

pypi package labmcp-astm-lis - check the name against the project README before installing (PyPI has no namespace ownership)

registry namespace io.github.K-Dense-AI is GitHub-verified and matches the repo owner

03 · What ASTM LIS Analyzer Receiver can do

Prose above is summarized from the project's README and registry record - no invented capabilities.

What you can build

g. between runs), report the analyzer link state, the messages and results received, and link-layer error counters, read received results, filtered by sample ID, patient ID, test code, time received or abnormal flag (newest last), and list the most recent ASTM messages received (newest last).

Tools grouped from the project's README - what ASTM LIS Analyzer Receiver lets an agent do.

read & search

6 tools - e.g. Return the most recent raw commands sent to / replies received from the instrument (newest last). Useful for debugging and for recording what was done.; Report which instrument is connected (identity…

Clear

1 tool - e.g. Delete all received messages and results from this server's memory (e.g. between runs).

clear_results

Reconnect

1 tool - e.g. Close and re-open the connection to the instrument (e.g. after it was power cycled or a cable was re-plugged).

reconnect

Limitations (from the README)

- Receive-only. No order download, no host-query responses and no result acknowledgements beyond the link-level ACK. Query (Q) messages from the analyzer are stored and reported (kind: "query") but not answered. Order download is planned future work. - Link layer (E1381). Every frame is checked: checksum (modulo-256 sum from the frame number to ETX/ETB, as two hex digits), frame number (first frame 1, then modulo 8;
