# AntV Chart MCP server > Generate more than 25 chart types, including line, bar, sankey, mind map and map charts, from data in your conversation. - Listing: https://mcp.tc/i/antv-chart - Connect: this is a local (stdio) server; install it on your machine (see Install). The listing link is a page, not an MCP endpoint. - Type: local (stdio) - Auth: no API key needed - Category: [Data & Analytics](https://mcp.tc/c/analytics) - Vendor: AntV (Ant Group) - Homepage: - Repository: - Package: npm `@antv/mcp-server-chart` ## About AntV Chart creates charts and diagrams from data you give your assistant. It covers trend, comparison, distribution and proportion charts (line, area, bar, column, pie, scatter, histogram, boxplot, violin, radar, funnel, waterfall). It also covers relationship and structure diagrams (sankey, venn, treemap, network, mind map, org chart, fishbone, flow) and word clouds. The map tools use the AMap service and only support locations within China. It runs locally through npx over stdio and needs no sign-in or API key. By default, charts are rendered by AntV's public rendering service. Set VIS\_REQUEST\_SERVER to point at a private deployment. DISABLED\_TOOLS turns off selected tools, and SERVICE\_ID is an optional setting for chart generation records. ## What it can do - Create line, area, bar, column and pie charts from supplied data - Plot distributions with histograms, boxplots and violin plots - Draw sankey, venn, treemap and network graphs - Build mind maps, org charts, fishbone and flow diagrams - Generate word clouds, funnel, waterfall and radar charts - Render district, path and pin maps within China - Disable unwanted tools with DISABLED\_TOOLS ## Tools (26) - `generate_area_chart`: Area chart for trends over a continuous variable - `generate_bar_chart`: Horizontal bar chart for comparing categories - `generate_boxplot_chart`: Box-and-whisker plot for statistical distributions - `generate_column_chart`: Vertical column chart for comparing categories - `generate_district_map`: District map of administrative regions in China - `generate_dual_axes_chart`: Dual-axes chart for comparing different scales - `generate_fishbone_diagram`: Fishbone diagram for cause-and-effect analysis - `generate_flow_diagram`: Flow diagram for process visualization - `generate_funnel_chart`: Funnel chart for conversion or stage analysis - `generate_histogram_chart`: Histogram for frequency distributions - `generate_line_chart`: Line chart for trend analysis - `generate_liquid_chart`: Liquid fill gauge for percentage displays - `generate_mind_map`: Mind map for hierarchical idea organization - `generate_network_graph`: Network graph for relationships between nodes - `generate_organization_chart`: Org chart for hierarchical structures - `generate_path_map`: Path map for route visualization in China - `generate_pie_chart`: Pie chart for part-to-whole relationships - `generate_pin_map`: Pin map for location markers in China - `generate_radar_chart`: Radar chart for multivariate comparison - `generate_sankey_chart`: Sankey diagram for flow quantities - `generate_scatter_chart`: Scatter plot for correlation analysis - `generate_treemap_chart`: Treemap for hierarchical data proportions - `generate_venn_chart`: Venn diagram for set relationships - `generate_violin_chart`: Violin plot for distribution comparison - `generate_waterfall_chart`: Waterfall chart for cumulative effect analysis - `generate_word_cloud_chart`: Word cloud for text frequency visualization ## Example prompts - "Make a line chart of these monthly sales figures." - "Draw a sankey diagram of this traffic flow data." - "Create a mind map of the main topics in this plan." - "Show the share of each category as a pie chart." ## Install ### Claude Code 1. Run this in a terminal, in your project folder: ```bash claude mcp add --transport stdio antv-chart -- npx -y @antv/mcp-server-chart ``` 2. Start Claude Code and type `/mcp`. **antv-chart** should show as connected. Add `--scope user` to make it available in every project. ### Claude Desktop 1. Open **Settings → Developer → Edit Config**. It opens `claude_desktop_config.json`. Add: `claude_desktop_config.json`: ```json { "mcpServers": { "antv-chart": { "command": "npx", "args": [ "-y", "@antv/mcp-server-chart" ] } } } ``` 2. Save the file and restart Claude Desktop. Needs Node.js on your computer. The file lives in `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/` on macOS and `%APPDATA%\Claude\` on Windows. ### Cursor [Add to Cursor]() (opens Cursor) Or add it by hand to `~/.cursor/mcp.json` (all projects) or `.cursor/mcp.json` (this project): `mcp.json`: ```json { "mcpServers": { "antv-chart": { "command": "npx", "args": [ "-y", "@antv/mcp-server-chart" ] } } } ``` Needs Node.js on your computer. ### VS Code [Install in VS Code]() (opens VS Code) Or from a terminal: ```bash code --add-mcp '{"name":"antv-chart","type":"stdio","command":"npx","args":["-y","@antv/mcp-server-chart"]}' ``` Or commit it to the repo in `.vscode/mcp.json`: `.vscode/mcp.json`: ```json { "servers": { "antv-chart": { "type": "stdio", "command": "npx", "args": [ "-y", "@antv/mcp-server-chart" ] } } } ``` Needs Node.js on your computer. ### Devin Desktop 1. Add it to `~/.config/devin/mcp_config.json` (macOS and Linux) or `%APPDATA%\devin\mcp_config.json` (Windows): `mcp_config.json`: ```json { "mcpServers": { "antv-chart": { "command": "npx", "args": [ "-y", "@antv/mcp-server-chart" ] } } } ``` 2. Refresh the MCP server list in Cascade. Devin Desktop is the new name for Windsurf. ### Codex ```bash codex mcp add antv-chart -- npx -y @antv/mcp-server-chart ``` Or edit `~/.codex/config.toml` directly: `config.toml`: ```toml [mcp_servers.antv-chart] command = "npx" args = ["-y", "@antv/mcp-server-chart"] ``` Needs Node.js on your computer. ### Gemini CLI ```bash gemini mcp add antv-chart npx -- -y @antv/mcp-server-chart ``` This adds it to the current project. Add `-s user` to use it everywhere. ### Any client Most clients that start local servers accept this shape: ```json { "mcpServers": { "antv-chart": { "command": "npx", "args": [ "-y", "@antv/mcp-server-chart" ] } } } ``` Zed puts servers under `context_servers` in its settings, with the same `command`, `args` and `env` fields. Needs Node.js on your computer. ## Details - Server version: 1.0.0 - Last checked: 2026-10-03 - Listed: 2026-10-03 - Updated: 2026-10-03 --- Source: https://mcp.tc/i/antv-chart (mcp.tc is an independent directory, not affiliated with this server's publisher).
