How do I use Quick Data for Windows MCP?

1. Click on "Install Server". 2. Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state. 3. In the chat, type @ followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@Quick Data for Windows MCP Analyze C:\Data\sales.csv and create a bar chart of revenue by category" That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed. Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.

Quick Data for Windows MCP

Windows-optimized fork of
Universal data analytics capabilities for JSON/CSV files - now working seamlessly on Windows!

Python 3.9+ Windows Claude Desktop Original Project

🚀 What This Does

This is a Windows-optimized fork of the excellent quick-data-mcp project by @disler.

The original project provides powerful MCP server capabilities for data analytics, and this fork specifically addresses Windows compatibility issues and Claude Desktop integration challenges.

**This is my first ever try at this. Please feel free to give suggestions and or criticisms. I loved the quick data mcp for claude code. There was nothing available like it for claude desktop so with the help of claude code we now have it.

Key Improvements Over Original:

✅ Windows Path Handling - Proper Windows file path support
✅ Claude Desktop Ready - Pre-configured batch launchers and setup
✅ Dependency Management - Automated installation scripts
✅ Troubleshooting - Complete guides for common Windows issues

✨ Key Features

Universal Data Support - Works with any CSV/JSON file structure
Windows Path Optimization - Handles Windows file paths correctly
Claude Desktop Integration - Pre-configured for seamless setup
Automatic Schema Discovery - Analyzes your data and suggests analyses
32+ Analytics Tools - From basic stats to advanced ML features
Interactive Visualizations - Create charts with Plotly
Memory Management - Optimized for large datasets

🛠️ Configuration

Manual Configuration

If the automatic setup doesn't work, manually edit your Claude Desktop config:

Location: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

{ "mcpServers": { "quick-data-windows": { "command": "python", "args": [ "C:\\path\\to\\your\\quick-data-for-windows-mcp\\main.py" ], "cwd": "C:\\path\\to\\your\\quick-data-for-windows-mcp", "env": { "LOG_LEVEL": "INFO", "PYTHONPATH": "C:\\path\\to\\your\\quick-data-for-windows-mcp\\src" } } } }

Alternative: Using UV Package Manager

If you prefer UV (recommended for Python dependency management):

{ "mcpServers": { "quick-data-windows": { "command": "uv", "args": [ "--directory", "C:\\path\\to\\your\\quick-data-for-windows-mcp", "run", "python", "main.py" ] } } }

🧪 Testing the Server

Test the server standalone (before Claude Desktop integration):

python main.py

Expected output:

Quick Data for Windows MCP v1.0.0 Server running on stdio...

📊 Example Workflows

Sales Data Analysis

1. Load sales_data.csv as "sales" 2. Show correlations in sales dataset 3. Create bar chart of sales by product_category 4. Detect outliers in revenue column 5. Generate dashboard with top products and regional trends

Data Quality Assessment

1. Load customer_data.csv as "customers" 2. Validate data quality for customers dataset 3. Analyze distributions for age column 4. Segment by customer_type column

🔍 Troubleshooting

Common Issues

"Module not found" errors:

Ensure Python is in your PATH
Run pip install -r requirements.txt manually
Check that PYTHONPATH is set correctly in config

"File not found" errors:

Use full Windows paths: C:\Users\...
Avoid relative paths like .\data\file.csv
Check file permissions

Claude Desktop not finding server:

Restart Claude Desktop after config changes
Check config file syntax with JSON validator
Verify file paths are correct (no typos)

Getting Help

Check that Python 3.9+ is installed: python --version
Verify dependencies: pip list | findstr pandas
Test server manually: python main.py
Check Claude Desktop logs for errors
