AntV Chart MCP — Generate Charts from Data

Main

• Use it as a structured output step: generate a small JSON dataset + chart intent, then call the tool to render consistently.
• Pick transport intentionally: stdio for local clients; SSE/streamable endpoints when you need HTTP access.
• If you need chart-type selection, pair it with the chart-visualization-skills repo referenced in README.

Source-backed notes

• README provides MCP client config examples where the server is launched via npx -y @antv/mcp-server-chart.
• README documents running the server with --transport sse (endpoint /sse) and --transport streamable (endpoint /mcp).
• README mentions a skill companion repo and claims the skill can choose from 25+ chart types.

FAQ

• Is npx required?: No—README also shows npm install -g, but npx -y is the lowest-friction start.
• Which transport should I use?: Use stdio for local desktop clients; use SSE/streamable for remote HTTP access.
• Can it pick the chart type for me?: Use the related skill repo referenced in README for automatic chart selection logic.
