NOMAD Materials Calculation Entry by ID
nomad/entry-by-id
Returns one public NOMAD entry by its entry id: formula, elements, structure type, symmetry, method, program and version, functional, available properties, submitters and an attribution line. Only entries licensed CC BY 4.0 are returned. Data from NOMAD, https://nomad-lab.eu, CC BY 4.0, modified by Eden Engine (fields selected, personal identifiers removed); not an official NOMAD product.
Price
$0.0026 per call
You pay the price shown. If a call turns out to cost more than its quote, you pay the actual price, capped at twice the quote. No monthly minimum. Top-ups start at $0.50.

Use it
Five steps: search, inspect, learn, run, settle. No per-tool setup; your agent reaches this tool through the meta-tools it already has.
Connect once and your AI can find and run this tool, and any other it needs.
// 1. search: find the tool
omnial_search({ query: "what you need" })
// 2. inspect: price and input schema
omnial_inspect({ tool: "nomad/entry-by-id" })
// 3. learn: read the usage guide at runtime
omnial_learn({ tool: "nomad/entry-by-id" })
// 4. run: price the exact call first, then run it
omnial_execute({ tool: "nomad/entry-by-id", input: { /* see input_schema */ }, dry_run: true })
omnial_execute({ tool: "nomad/entry-by-id", input: { /* ... */ } })
// 5. settle: the call is charged when it finishes, nothing to doNot connected yet? Point your MCP client at https://mcp.eden-engine.com/mcp, then copy a config for your client.
