About Data Dictionary MCP

Data Dictionary MCP converts database tables into readable, Wikipedia-style data dictionaries. It is intended for teams documenting schemas, using AI agents to analyze and describe JSON, CSV, and plain-text inputs.

Key features

  1. 01Process JSON, CSV, and plain text
  2. 02Extract schemas into a unified representation
  3. 03Generate field descriptions and relationships
  4. 04Coordinate AI agents through MCP
  5. 05Format dictionaries in a Wikipedia-style layout

Use cases

  1. 01Document schemas provided as JSON or CSV
  2. 02Generate human-readable descriptions of database fields
  3. 03Coordinate schema analysis and verification with AI agents

MCP support

The MCP server coordinates AI agents that analyze, describe, and verify database structures. It supports schema extraction and data-dictionary generation.

Configuration

Local server config is the same for every client. Copy it into your client’s MCP config file.

Data Dictionary MCP

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that coordinates AI agents to transform database tables into Wikipedia-style data dictionaries.

Overview

The Data Dictionary MCP project automates the conversion of various database formats into comprehensive, human-readable data dictionaries using AI-powered analysis and description. It leverages the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to coordinate AI agents for analyzing, describing, and verifying database structures.

Features

  • Multi-Format Support: Process JSON, CSV, and Plain Text files (with more formats planned)
  • AI-Powered Analysis: Generate field descriptions and identify relationships
  • MCP Integration: Coordinate AI agents using the Model Context Protocol
  • Schema Extraction: Extract database schemas from various formats into a unified representation
  • Wikipedia-Style Output: Present data dictionaries in a familiar, accessible format

Project Status

This project is in active development. See the Project Roadmap for details.

New to MCP?

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.

An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
