bio-research: drop three dead deepsense.ai MCP URLs#243
Merged
Conversation
`mcp.deepsense.ai` is NXDOMAIN — the entire subdomain has been torn down (parent deepsense.ai still resolves; only the MCP service is gone). The three connectors served from it (biorxiv, c-trials, chembl) all fail the "Check MCP URLs" liveness workflow added in #236 and block every open PR that touches marketplace.json. Mirrors the `servicenow` removal from #238 — the only truly-dead case in that cleanup; the rest were repointed. There is no discoverable migration target for the deepsense MCP service. Skills are not affected: `bio-research/CONNECTORS.md` documents the plugin as tool-agnostic via `~~literature` / `~~chemical database` / `~~clinical trials` placeholders. Users connect any working MCP server in the relevant category (CONNECTORS.md already lists alternatives: Google Scholar, Semantic Scholar, EU Clinical Trials Register, PubChem, DrugBank). CONNECTORS.md still references the removed server names under "Included servers"; the plugin owner can update that copy as a follow-up if they want to keep it strictly accurate.

mcp.deepsense.aiis NXDOMAIN — the entire subdomain has been torn down (parentdeepsense.aistill resolves and serves 200; only the MCP subdomain is gone). The three connectors served from it (biorxiv,c-trials,chembl) all fail the "Check MCP URLs" liveness workflow (#236) and block every open PR that touchesmarketplace.json.DNS evidence:
No discoverable migration target — they sunset the MCP service, not the company.
