Click on "Install Server".
Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state.
In the chat, type
@followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@Sample Data MCPgenerate 10 test records with customer ID, name, status, and signup date"
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.
Sample Data MCP
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that generates fixed-length test data based on field specifications. This tool helps developers create realistic test datasets with customizable field types and formats.
Features
Generate fixed-length test data records
Support for multiple field types:
string: Random names using Faker libraryenum: Random selection from provided valuesinteger: Random integers within specified rangedate: Random dates with customizable formatfiller: Space padding fields
Configurable field length and constraints
MCP-compatible for integration with Claude Code
Installation
Prerequisites
Python 3.13 or higher
Install with UV
Clone or download this project
Navigate to the project directory
Install dependencies:
uv sync
Install into Claude Code
Add the MCP server to your Claude Code configuration. Edit your MCP settings file (typically
~/.config/claude-code/mcp_servers.jsonor similar):{ "mcpServers": { "sample-data-mcp": { "command": "uv", "args": ["run", "/path/to/sample-data-mcp/main.py"], "cwd": "/path/to/sample-data-mcp" } } }Restart Claude Code to load the new MCP server
Usage
Once installed, you can use the generate_test_data_tool through Claude Code to create test data:
