Conference Partner — MCP server & REST API

Academicconference and journaldata for AI agents and scripts: CFP deadlines, CCF / CORE / QUALIS rankings, acceptance-rate history, edition history, journal impact factors and special issues — served byConference Partner(会伴), a conference tracker that has been maintained since 2013.

Both are backed by the same services and returnidentical payloads— the only difference is the protocol envelope.

Search, ranking lists and site statistics need no credentials at all.Point a client at the URL and the first call works.

curl "https://www.myhuiban.com/api/conferences?ccf_rank=A&field=ai&submission_date_start=2026-08-05"
claude mcp add --transport http conference-partner https://www.myhuiban.com/mcp

To unlock the detail tools, add a static request header in the connector's advanced settings:Authorization: Bearer hb_xxx(seeCredentials).

{ "mcpServers": { "conference-partner": { "url": "https://www.myhuiban.com/mcp" } } }
{ "servers": { "conference-partner": { "type": "http", "url": "https://www.myhuiban.com/mcp" } } }

MCP server URLhttps://www.myhuiban.com/mcp, authenticationNo authentication(orAPI keywith yourhb_key to enable the detail tools).

Ready-to-copy files for each client live inexamples/mcp-config/, and the per-client walkthrough — including how to attach a key — is indocs/mcp-clients.md.

Eight read-only tools, each with a REST twin returning the same payload.

Search accepts any combination of keyword,ccf_rank(A/B/C),core_rank(A/A/B/C),qualis_rank,field(14 CS areas), submission/conference date ranges andupdated_sincefor incremental sync.Every parameter is optional— filter-only queries such as "AI conferences with a deadline in the next 90 days" are the point.

Ranking lists cover open CFPs, the three tier lists, popularity, lowest acceptance rate, trending, upcoming/past — and for journals, special-issue CFPs and highest impact factor.

The MCP server also shipsprompts— ready-made tasks your client offers as one-click starting points, so you are not left staring at a list of tool names:

Full machine-readable definitions, refreshed from production by CI:spec/openapi.jsonandspec/mcp-tools.json.

Create a key atmyhuiban.com/account/api-keys— it never expires and can be revoked individually, which is what you want for a client that only lets you pin a fixed request header. A JWT fromPOST /api/loginworks too and draws on the same pool.

Every response carriesX-Quota-LimitandX-Quota-Remaining. CORS is open, so browser JavaScript works.

401= this endpoint needs a credential, or the one you sent is invalid. An unusable credential isneversilently downgraded to the anonymous tier.402= account quota exhausted.429= anonymous per-IP quota exhausted.

actions/deadline-watchis a GitHub Action that keeps one issue up to date with the deadlines you can still submit to — no API key, nothing to host.Issue #1is this repo running it on a schedule, so you can see the output before adopting it.

- uses: sundou82/conference-partner-mcp/actions/deadline-watch@main with: field: security days: 120

data/carries a snapshot refreshed daily by CI, as JSON and CSV:

data/README.mdrenders the next 90 days as a table you can read in the browser.

The snapshot covers exactly what theanonymous tier already serves— nothing in it is gated. Per-venue detail (CFP full text, acceptance-rate history, edition history, ratings) stays behind the API, where a free key reaches it.

A file is stale the moment a deadline is extended, which in submission season is daily. Use it to browse, diff or bulk-load; call the API when it has to be right.

CI commitsdata/once a day and only when something actually changed, so the commit history of that directoryisa change feed. GitHub publishes it as Atom, no account needed:

https://github.com/sundou82/conference-partner-mcp/commits/main/data.atom

Point a feed reader at it, or diff two commits to see exactly which deadlines moved:

git log --oneline -- data/ git diff HEAD~1 HEAD -- data/upcoming-deadlines.csv

Watching the repo on GitHub (Watch → Custom → Releases, or all activity) gets you the same signal as email.

Deadline lists are easy to find. These are the parts that are hard to reproduce:

- Three ranking systems in one row— CCF, CORE and QUALIS on the same venue, so "CCF-A that is also CORE-A" is one query rather than a join across three sources.
- Acceptance-rate historyandedition history— how a venue's selectivity and location moved across editions, back to 2013.
- Journals as first-class entities— impact factor, publisher, ISSN, and special-issue CFPs, which conference-only lists do not carry.
- Incremental syncupdated_sincewith anupdated_atwatermark on every row, so a mirror is a diff rather than a re-crawl.
- Human-curated, not scraped: dates are entered and corrected by maintainers and by the organisers themselves through a venue-claim process.

This repo is the distribution entry point for the API and MCP server: client configuration, examples, and CI-synced specs.The server itself is not open source— it is a hosted service; nothing here needs to be installed or run to use it.

- docs/mcp-clients.md— per-client setup, with and without a key
-
docs/rest-api.md— endpoints, parameters, errors, incremental sync
-
docs/data.md— what is in the dataset, attribution, terms
-
examples/— runnable Python, Node and curl clients; MCP config files
-
spec/— OpenAPI 3 document, MCP tool definitions and server card, re-fetched from production daily byCIso they cannot go stale

Thedata served by the API is not covered by that license. It is free to use, including commercially, with attribution: cite the canonical venue URL and "Conference Partner (myhuiban.com)". If your claim is about a ranking value itself, cite the ranking body — Conference Partner reproduces those lists, it does not define them. Bulk use should start fromdata/rather than a crawl of your own, and dataset licensing or model training needs a conversation first. Seedocs/data.mdand theterms on the site.
