Model Context Protocol

Connect Any AI Client to Your TridaPad

TridaPad MCP is a server that exposes all of TridaPad's capabilities as tools — letting Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, and any MCP-compatible AI client query data, build dashboards, and explore schemas through natural language.

How It Works

Three steps from zero to conversational data access

Step 01

Deploy the MCP Server

Pull the MCP server image and configure it with your TridaPad instance URL and API key. Supports both single-user and multi-user HTTP modes.

docker pull tridalabs/tridapad-mcp

Step 02

Connect Your AI Client

Add TridaPad MCP to Claude Desktop or Claude Code using your TridaPad API key for per-user authentication.

Step 03

Ask in Natural Language

Your AI client can now query schemas, run SQL, create dashboards, and explore data — all through conversation.

What you can say to your AI assistant

>Show me the schema of my analytics database

>Query the top 10 products by revenue this month

>Create a dashboard with daily active users, revenue trend, and conversion funnel

>Set an alert when daily orders drop below 100

>Fork the Q3 dashboard and update it with Q4 data

Full TridaPad Capabilities as MCP Tools

Everything TridaPad can do is available as an MCP tool

Data SourcesDiscover connected databases, explore full schemas, and test connection health

QueriesWrite, run, fork, archive, and refresh SQL queries. Export results in full via CSV for downstream use

VisualizationsCreate a wide range of chart types: line, bar, area, pie, scatter, table, counter, funnel, map, and more

DashboardsBuild, update, fork, and share dashboards. Responsive grid layout with public share link generation

WidgetsAdd visualizations to dashboards with precise grid positioning — full-width, half, or third columns

AlertsSet threshold monitors with email, Slack, or webhook destinations. Alerts rearm automatically after triggering

SnippetsSave and reuse parameterized SQL templates

Security & Access Controls

Per-user API key authentication — each AI client is validated against TridaPad independently

Multi-user mode (default): each AI client uses its own TridaPad key; group permissions enforced automatically

Single-key mode available for local development and testing

SQL safety guard blocks destructive operations like DROP, TRUNCATE, and unguarded DELETE/UPDATE
