Installation

Install globally:

npm install -g @antv/mcp-server-chart

For Desktop Apps (e.g., Claude Desktop, VSCode):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp-server-chart": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@antv/mcp-server-chart"]
    }
  }
}

For Windows:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp-server-chart": {
      "command": "cmd",
      "args": ["/c", "npx", "-y", "@antv/mcp-server-chart"]
    }
  }
}

nvim-mcp · Install

Installation

Using uv (recommended)

  1. Install uv:
curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh
  1. Register the MCP server with your client. For Cursor, add to .cursor/mcp.json:
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "nvim-mcp": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["nvim-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

For other clients like Claude Desktop, see the [configuration guide](config/README.md).

Using Nix

Ensure Nix is installed with flakes enabled:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "nvim-mcp": {
      "command": "nix",
      "args": ["run", "github:paulburgess1357/nvim-mcp"]
    }
  }
}
  1. Add agent rules to specify when and how the AI should use the tools. See the [configuration guide](config/README.md#2-add-agent-rules).
  1. Start Neovim. It will be auto-discovered on most Linux systems.
