Installation

# Clone the repository git clone [your-repo-url] cd xano_mcp # Install dependencies npm install

Configuration

Copy the example environment file:

cp .env.example .env

Update the .env file with your Xano credentials:

XANO_API_KEY=your_api_key_here XANO_API_URL=your_xano_api_url NODE_ENV=development API_TIMEOUT=10000

Development

# Build the project npm run build # Run in development mode npm run dev # Start the server npm start

Available MCP Tools

Workspace Tools

get_workspaces: List all available workspaces

Table Tools

create_table: Create a new table in a workspace
get_table_content: Get content from a table with pagination support
add_table_content: Add new content to a table
update_table_content: Update existing content in a table
get_all_tables: List all tables in a workspace with detailed information

Usage Examples

Working with Workspaces

// List available workspaces const result = await mcp.use_tool("get_workspaces", {}); console.log('Workspaces:', result);

Managing Tables

// Create a new table const createResult = await mcp.use_tool("create_table", { workspaceId: 123, name: "MyTable" }); // Add content to a table const addResult = await mcp.use_tool("add_table_content", { workspaceId: 123, tableId: 456, content: { created_at: "2024-01-22T17:07:00.000Z" } }); // Get table content with pagination const getResult = await mcp.use_tool("get_table_content", { workspaceId: 123, tableId: 456, pagination: { page: 1, items: 50 } }); // Update table content const updateResult = await mcp.use_tool("update_table_content", { workspaceId: 123, tableId: 456, contentId: "789", content: { created_at: "2024-01-22T17:07:00.000Z" } }); // List all tables in a workspace const tables = await mcp.use_tool("get_all_tables", { workspaceId: 123 }); console.log('Tables:', tables); // Returns an array of tables with their details: // [ // { // id: number, // name: string, // description: string, // created_at: string, // updated_at: string, // guid: string, // auth: boolean, // tag: string[], // workspaceId: number // }, // ... // ]
