Galaxy · Research preview

Your Galaxy analyses.
One conversation.

Connect an AI assistant to your Galaxy account. Explore histories, inspect results, and run the analyses you request—on your chosen Galaxy instance.

01 · EXPLORE

Find your work

Browse histories and datasets by name. Open the original history in Galaxy whenever you need the full workspace.

02 · ANALYZE

Use Galaxy tools

Inspect installed tools and curated workflows, check their inputs, then submit an analysis. Jobs run on Galaxy, not on the AI provider.

03 · UNDERSTAND

Read the results

Explore supported text and HTML reports in interactive cards where the client supports them. Give the assistant report data to assess, not just a completion status.

Bring your own Galaxy accounts

Choose from five public sites listed by Galaxy: Galaxy US, Galaxy Europe, Galaxy Australia, Galaxy France and Galaxy Canada. Authorize one account per selected site, using each site's own API key. Each site's permissions, tools, storage limits and compute quotas still apply. Existing connections do not gain access to new sites automatically.

We maintain a reviewed list, not an automatic import of every directory entry. Request another Galaxy site.

Public directory release is pending. Galaxy is not yet a published ChatGPT directory plugin. Developer-mode preview access and directory installation are different routes.

Connect through a compatible client

  1. In a client that supports a custom remote MCP connection, enter https://mcp.galaxymcp.org/mcp.
  2. Complete the Galaxy connection at auth.galaxymcp.org: enter your own API key for each selected site in the secure form, leave other fields blank, and review the requested read or analysis access. Never paste keys into a chat.
  3. Start with “Show my recent Galaxy histories.” Specify the site when more than one is connected. Review the selected data and parameters before requesting an analysis.
  4. Later, ask naturally to remove a site, rotate a key or disconnect Galaxy. The assistant will create a private connection-management link.

Custom-connection access depends on your client and plan. Interactive cards require MCP Apps support; tool access and card rendering are separate capabilities. Contact us if your client cannot complete authorization.

Designed for research

Use public, synthetic or other non-sensitive research data. Requested content passes through the hosted service to your AI provider. Do not connect clinical, regulated, identifiable human-subject or otherwise restricted data. An AI-generated interpretation is not scientific validation.
