Install Tableaugen in Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code

Runs npx -y tableaugen-mcp on your machine. Read the scan report first; the gateway never runs local packages.

TabGen MCP Server

Generate production-ready Tableau workbooks from natural language and a CSV.

Official MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for TabGen — the AI-powered Tableau workbook generator. Turn a CSV plus a one-line prompt into a real .twb / .twbx file that opens directly in Tableau Desktop or publishes to Tableau Cloud.

What it does

TabGen writes to Tableau. Point it at a dataset, describe the dashboard you want, and get back an actual editable workbook — not a screenshot, not a suggestion, not a code snippet. The generated file has real data connections, calculated fields, worksheets, dashboard containers, and filter actions wired together.

Use it directly from Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code, or any MCP-compatible client.

Installation

Claude Desktop

Add to your claudedesktopconfig.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tableaugen": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "tableaugen-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Cursor / Windsurf / VS Code

Add to your MCP settings:

{
  "tableaugen": {
    "command": "npx",
    "args": ["-y", "tableaugen-mcp"]
  }
}

Direct install

npm install -g tableaugen-mcp

Then run:

tableaugen-mcp

Authentication

None required. TabGen's core generation is free to use.

Tools

Supported inputs

  • CSV files (any dialect, headers auto-detected)

Supported outputs

  • .twb — Tableau workbook (XML, no data embedded)
  • .twbx — Tableau packaged workbook (workbook + extract)
  • .hyper — Tableau extract only
  • Direct publish to Tableau Cloud / Tableau Server via REST API

Example usage

Once installed, ask your AI client:

Generate a quarterly sales dashboard from /data/orders.csv with a region filter and a product drill-down. Save it to ~/Desktop/sales.twbx.

TabGen will profile the data, plan the layout, and write a valid Tableau workbook to the path you specified.
