Generate-Data tools (7)

write = sends, deletes, buys or posts

Read from the package source without running it. The installed server may list more.

  • gd_design_schema

    Design a dataset schema from natural language — one tool for both the first proposal and follow-up refinements. Behavior branches on args: - First call (propose): pass only `prompt` (and optionally `locale`, e.g. 'en_US', 'fr_FR'). `messages`/`current_schema` left unset. - Refine call: pass BOTH `messages` (the running conversation, list of `{"role": "user"|"assistant", "content": str}`) AND `curr

  • gd_generate_dataset

    Generate synthetic dataset rows from a field list. Use this when the user wants actual generated data (as opposed to schema design or field-type discovery). `fields` is a list of `{"name": str, "type": str, "options": dict}` (get valid `type` values from `gd_list_field_types`/`gd_get_field_type_options`). `format` must be one of `csv`, `json`, `xml`, `parquet`, `zip` (anything else returns an `uns

  • gd_generate_project

    Generate all tables in a Project and download the result (Premium tier only). `project_id` must be a positive integer (get one from `gd_list_projects`). `format` must be one of `csv`, `json`, `xml`, `parquet`, `zip` (default `zip`; anything else returns `unsupported_format`). Non-Premium API keys get a `tier_forbidden` error — upgrade the Generate-Data.com plan to use this tool. Returns the JSON e

  • gd_get_field_type_options

    Get the configuration option schema for one field type (e.g. what options `email` or `date` accept). Use this before building a `fields` entry for `gd_generate_dataset` that needs non-default options. `field_type` must match `^[a-z0-9_]+$` (lowercase letters, digits, underscore only) — anything else returns `invalid_input` without calling upstream. Returns the option schema in `data`.

  • gd_get_usage

    Get current API key usage stats (calls today, tier, limits). Use this to check remaining quota or confirm which tier the configured API key has before attempting a premium-only call. Takes no arguments. Returns the usage stats in `data`.

  • gd_list_field_types

    List all available field types grouped by category. Use this to discover valid `type` values before calling `gd_generate_dataset` or to look up which category a field type belongs to. Takes no arguments. Returns the categorized field-type catalog in `data.categories`.

  • gd_list_projects

    List the user's Projects (Premium tier only). Use this to discover `project_id` values before calling `gd_generate_project`. `limit` (default 20, max 100) and `offset` (default 0) page through the results; results are paginated client-side since the upstream API returns the full list. Non-Premium API keys get a `tier_forbidden` error — upgrade the Generate-Data.com plan to use this tool. Returns t

What the publisher says

From the Generate-Data repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub

generate-data-mcp

<!-- mcp-name: io.github.ns-3e/generate-data-mcp -->

An MCP server for Generate-Data.com — generate synthetic datasets, design schemas from natural language, and manage Projects, straight from your agent.

Thin HTTP wrapper over the Generate-Data.com API. No generation logic lives in this repo — it's a curated, agent-friendly interface onto the real thing: 7 tools, one consistent response shape, binary-safe output, and server-side validation on every input.

Installation (30-second setup)

You need a Generate-Data.com API key first — create one in Settings → API Access on generate-data.com.

Claude Desktop / Cursor (recommended)

Add this to your MCP client config (Claude Desktop: claudedesktopconfig.json; Cursor: .cursor/mcp.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "generate-data": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["generate-data-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "GENERATE_DATA_API_KEY": "your-uuid-key-here"
      }
    }
  }
}

uvx fetches and runs the latest published version on demand — no separate install step, nothing to update by hand. Restart your client and the 7 gd_* tools are available.

Do not commit a config file containing your real API key.

uv / uvx (any MCP client)

# run once, ad hoc:
uvx generate-data-mcp

# or install it as a persistent CLI tool:
uv tool install generate-data-mcp

pip (fallback)

pip install generate-data-mcp

For local development against this repo directly:

git clone https://github.com/ns-3e/generate-data-mcp.git
cd generate-data-mcp
pip install -e ".[dev]"

Verify it works

export GENERATE_DATA_API_KEY=your-key
generate-data-mcp

From your MCP client, invoke gdgetusage — it should return your tier and call counts. Then invoke gdlistfield_types — it should return the category map.

Bam — you're ready to generate data.

Ask your agent something like "generate 50 rows of fake e-commerce customers as CSV" and it will call gddesignschema then gdgeneratedataset on its own.

Quick start

A typical session looks like this — the agent chains tools on its own, you just describe the outcome:

  1. Discover what's possible. gdlistfield_types — see every field type, grouped by category.
  2. Design a schema. gddesignschema(prompt="E-commerce customers with name, email, and signup date") — proposes a fields array from plain English.
  3. Generate the data. gdgeneratedataset(fields=..., num_rows=10, format="csv") — returns the rows.
  4. Refine if needed. Call gddesignschema again, this time passing messages (the running conversation) + current_schema (the prior result) together — it refines instead of proposing fresh.

Every tool returns the same envelope: {"ok": true, "summary": "...", "data": {...}} on success, or {"ok": false, "error": {"code": ..., "message": ...}} on failure — errors always tell you what to do next, never a raw stack trace.

Local development

{
  "env": { "GENERATE_DATA_API_BASE_URL": "http://localhost:8000" }
}

Point at a locally running Django backend instead of the hosted API.
