Dashboards tools (3, 1 write)
write = sends, deletes, buys or postsRead from the package source without running it. The installed server may list more.
delete_chart_fileswrite actionDelete chart preview HTML files saved on disk (in the system temp folder). REQUIRES the user's explicit instruction to run - it deletes files from disk and cannot be undone. Provide at least one of: chartIds (specific file IDs to delete), olderThanDays (bulk delete by age), or all=true (delete every chart file). Scope is hard-locked to mcp-dashboards temp folder; cannot touch anything else. Return
list_chart_filesList all chart preview HTML files saved on disk (in the system temp folder). These are auto-generated each time a chart is rendered and auto-cleaned after 7 days (configurable via MCP_DASHBOARDS_RETAIN_DAYS env var). Returns file metadata (id, name, size, age). Use this to audit disk usage, then call delete_chart_files to remove specific files or all of them.
poll_httpFetch JSON from an HTTP endpoint. Used by render_live_chart to poll external APIs.

The problem
We use AI for everything - analysis, reports, strategy. But when it comes to actually seeing the story in your data, you're stuck copying numbers into a spreadsheet and building charts yourself. The conversation has the insight. The visualization is somewhere else.
The solution
MCP Dashboards renders interactive charts, dashboards, and KPI widgets directly inside your AI conversation. 32 chart tools covering 45+ chart subtypes (bar has stacked/drilldown, hero has 11 variants, flowchart has 6 node kinds + 5 edge styles, etc.), 21 themes, 4 visual discovery catalogs, live polling, PNG/PPT/A4 export - all from a single MCP server. No browser tabs, no copy-paste, no context switching.
Works in
ChatGPT and claude.ai need a remotely hosted endpoint (Streamable HTTP mode below); the desktop clients spawn the server locally.
[!IMPORTANT]
The only official npm package is mcp-dashboards, published from this repository. Similarly named packages are not ours: mcp-dashboards-shared was malware (see OSSF advisory MAL-2026-4296, removed by npm security in May 2026). Install only mcp-dashboards.
