How to Set Up and Use Quick Data
Quick Data MCP Server is a prompt-focused analytics engine that gives AI assistants the ability to load, explore, and analyze JSON and CSV datasets directly from the filesystem. It exposes 32 tools covering dataset loading, segmentation, correlation analysis, outlier detection, time-series analysis, visualization chart generation, and even custom Python execution against loaded data — all without requiring the user to write code manually. Data analysts and developers use it inside Claude Code to run ad-hoc explorations on local data files through natural language, turning any CSV or JSON file into an interactive analytics workspace.
Prerequisites
- Python 3.10+ with uv package manager installed (https://docs.astral.sh/uv/)
- Git to clone the repository
- Local JSON or CSV files you want to analyze
- An MCP client such as Claude Code or Claude Desktop
Clone the repository
Download the quick-data-mcp project to your local machine.
git clone https://github.com/disler/quick-data-mcp.git
cd quick-data-mcpSet up the configuration file
Copy the sample MCP config and edit it with your absolute paths. The --directory argument tells the server where to look for data files.
cp .mcp.json.sample .mcp.json
# Edit .mcp.json and set the absolute path to your data directoryVerify uv path and test the server
Confirm uv is on your PATH, then do a quick smoke test by running the server directly. It should start without errors.
which uv
uv run python main.pyAdd to your MCP client configuration
Register the server in your Claude Desktop or Claude Code config. Replace /absolute/path/to/quick-data-mcp with the real directory on your machine.
{
"mcpServers": {
"quick-data": {
"command": "uv",
"args": ["run", "--directory", "/absolute/path/to/quick-data-mcp", "python", "main.py"]
}
}
}Discover available tools and prompts
Once connected in Claude Code, use the built-in prompt to list all 32 tools, 12 resources, and 7 prompts so you know what the server can do.

Natural language requests that exercise the server's analytics and visualization tools.
- "Load the file data/sales.csv as the 'sales' dataset and give me a first look at its structure."
- "Find correlations between all numeric columns in the sales dataset."
- "Detect outliers in the order_value column and explain what's unusual about them."
- "Create a bar chart of total revenue by region from the sales dataset."
- "Compare the Q1 and Q2 datasets and highlight the biggest differences in performance metrics."Troubleshooting Quick Data
Server fails to start with 'command not found: uv'
Install uv with 'curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh' and ensure it is on your PATH. Use 'which uv' to confirm the binary location, then update the command field in your MCP config with the full path if needed.
Dataset load fails or returns no rows
Confirm the file path passed to load_dataset is an absolute path or is relative to the --directory you configured. CSV files must have a header row. JSON files should be an array of objects at the top level.
MCP client shows no tools after connecting
Verify .mcp.json has the correct absolute path to the project directory. Restart the MCP client after editing the config. Run 'uv run python main.py' in the terminal to check for import errors before retrying.
