Trust breakdown (7 categories)

How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically from public evidence about the published package, including repeated runs of it in an isolated sandbox, and we only credit what we can confirm. How we score → Why this is hard to score →

Supply Chain Security0
  • Malware scan not yet available for this package.Unverified
  • Known CVEs could not be checked: this artifact ships no SBOM, so there is no dependency list to read. Publishing one would let us assess it.Unverified
  • Install-script risk not yet assessed.Unverified
  • Dependency health could not be checked: this artifact ships no SBOM, so there is no dependency list to read. Publishing one would let us assess it.Unverified
Provenance & Transparency35
Schema Quality & AI Usability65
  • AI-judged instruction clarity (good).Pass
  • Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 877 tokens (~125/item across 7 items; 7 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params. See how to fix → Fail
  • Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management67
  • Stability observed for 20 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
Tool Coverage92
  • 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
  • 77% of tool parameters carry a description.Partial
Tool Safety100
  • No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
  • We read all 7 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
  • An AI judge read all 7 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities100
  • Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.Pass

Unverified: 1 category

A category scored 0 because we could not verify it: a data source with nothing on this package, evidence we could not reach, or a check we could not run. We only credit what we can confirm.

Install

How do I install the Dataloupe MCP server?

Dataloupe runs locally as a container image, launched with docker run --rm -i ghcr.io/aurelio-nakamura/dataloupe:0.15.0. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 3 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

MCP tools · 7 exposed · ~877 tokens

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →

Tool Tokens
describe_data ~87

Return the schema, row/column counts, and per-column statistics (type, nulls, unique, min/max/mean/median, top values) for a local data file. Token-efficient; reads a sample for very large files.

NameTypeReqDescription
limitintegerMax rows to sample when profiling (default: all/auto).
pathstringyesPath to the data file.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

diff_data ~123

Compare two local data files (a git-style diff for data). Reports added/removed/changed/unchanged row counts (matched by --key when given), and optionally writes a self-contained offline HTML diff report. Both files stay local.

NameTypeReqDescription
afterstringyesPath to the NEW file.
beforestringyesPath to the OLD file.
keyarrayColumn(s) that uniquely identify a row (enables cell-level changes).
out_pathstringIf set, write an offline HTML diff report here and return its path.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

list_data_files ~60

List tabular data files (CSV/TSV/JSON/NDJSON/Parquet/Excel) in a local directory, with sizes.

NameTypeReqDescription
dirstringyesDirectory to scan.
recursivebooleanRecurse into subdirectories.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

preview_data ~56

Return the first N rows of a local data file as a Markdown table.

NameTypeReqDescription
limitintegerRows to show (default 20).
offsetinteger
pathstringyesPath to the data file.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

query_data ~156

Run a read-only structured query over a local data file: filter (where), select columns, order_by, limit/offset, and group_by with aggregations (count/sum/avg/min/max). Returns a Markdown table. No SQL, no writes — the file is never modified.

NameTypeReqDescription
aggregatearrayAggregations to compute per group (with group_by).
group_byarrayGroup rows by these columns.
limitinteger
offsetinteger
order_byobject
pathstringyesPath to the data file.
selectarrayColumns to keep in the output.
wherearrayRow filters (ANDed together).

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

sql_query ~181

Run a read-only SQL SELECT over a local data file and get a Markdown table back. Supports: SELECT * | <cols> | aggregates COUNT/SUM/AVG/MIN/MAX, WHERE (=, !=, >, >=, <, <=, LIKE, IN) with AND, GROUP BY, ORDER BY [ASC|DESC], LIMIT, OFFSET. The table name in FROM is ignored (single-table). No writes, no arbitrary SQL execution — the query string is compiled to a safe read-only plan (no eval), and the file is never modified.

NameTypeReqDescription
pathstringyesPath to the data file.
sqlstringyesA single SELECT statement, e.g. `SELECT species, AVG(body_mass_g) AS avg_mass FROM t GROUP BY species ORDER BY avg_mass DESC LIMIT 5`. Column names must match the file's headers.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

visualize_data ~214

Turn a local data file (optionally after a query) into ONE self-contained, fully-offline, interactive HTML explorer file on disk (sortable/filterable table + column stats + charts). Returns the path. The user can open it in any browser; data never leaves the machine and the file has zero external requests. Use this to hand the user a shareable, explorable artifact instead of a plain text table.

NameTypeReqDescription
aggregatearrayAggregations to compute per group (with group_by).
group_byarrayGroup rows by these columns.
limitinteger
offsetinteger
order_byobject
out_pathstringWhere to write the .html (default: a temp file).
pathstringyesPath to the data file.
selectarrayColumns to keep in the output.
titlestringTitle shown in the explorer.
wherearrayRow filters (ANDed together).

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

What is the Dataloupe MCP server?

Dataloupe is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.aurelio-nakamura/dataloupe. Offline MCP server to explore CSV/JSON/Parquet/Excel: preview, query, diff, render interactive HTML. This page covers its container image (ghcr.io/aurelio-nakamura/dataloupe:0.15.0).

Is the Dataloupe MCP server safe to use?

Dataloupe scores 45 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

What tools does the Dataloupe MCP server expose?

Dataloupe exposes 7 tools: list_data_files, describe_data, preview_data, query_data, sql_query, and 2 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 877 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Is the Dataloupe MCP server still maintained?

Dataloupe is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 21 September 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
