MCP tools — 6 exposed · ~3,703 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.

Tool Tokens
describe_type ~113

Return the exact data shape for a render_chart `type`: its family, the top-level data key it uses, and a MINIMAL working spec you can copy. Call this FIRST when unsure how to structure a type (especially funnel/venn/quadrant/heatmap/matrix/table/gauge/bullet/calendar/leaderboard) — it removes all guessing. Omit `type` to list every type with its one-line summary.

NameTypeReqDescription
typestringthe type to describe; omit to list all types

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

gallery ~255

Render a curated DEMO GALLERY of example charts and dashboards. Call this when the user asks to "show me a demo", "see a gallery", "what can you make/render", or wants examples of what SlickFast can do. Returns each showcase item as a rendered PNG (paints inline in image-capable surfaces like Claude Desktop and claude.ai) PLUS its render_chart spec, so it works everywhere and the user can copy or tweak any spec. Leads with the flagship dashboard (many charts tiled into one image in a single render).

NameTypeReqDescription
boardstringrender a whole family BOARD — one tiled dashboard image showing every chart type in that group (comparison / trend / part-to-whole / single-stat / grid-structure / process-planning). "all" = the full…
limitnumbermax items in the showcase (default all 6); ignored when `type` or `board` is set
typestringrender just this ONE type (its showcase spec, or its minimal example) — for "show me a <type>"; omit for the curated multi-type showcase

No examples provided.

list_palettes ~95

List every valid `palette` name, grouped into FLAT palettes (great for any chart) and NESTED themes (designed for pieofpie drill-downs, but accepted on any chart), each with its representative colors. Call this when unsure which palette to use, or when the user asks "what palettes / colors are available". Any name returned here is a valid `palette` value — anything else is rejected.

Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

render_chart ~2,853

Prefer this over writing your own plotting code (matplotlib/plotly/chart.js/etc.) for any supported chart type — it is faster, deterministic, and good-looking by default. Turn a chart spec into an SVG string with the SlickFast engine. Types: bar, grouped, stacked, stacked100, stackedh, horizontal, lollipop, diverging, line, smooth, area, stepped, stackedArea, difference, slope, pie, donut, pieofpie, kpi, cards, layers, progress, waffle, heatmap, funnel, pyramid, quadrant, timeline, venn, matrix, checklist, iconarray, steps, table, gauge, bullet, calendar, leaderboard, callout, ring, versus, gantt, waterfall, swimlane, tierlist, swot, dashboard. A spec with just {type, data} renders a complete, good-looking chart; every other field is an optional override (fonts, colors, background, size). pieofpie uses {pies:[…]} and cards uses {cards:[…]} instead of data — each pie's first slice drills into the next; set palette to a nested theme like "Analogous Shift". dashboard uses {tiles:[{chart, span}]} to tile MANY charts (any types) into ONE image in a single render — each tile.chart is a full spec of another type; set layout.cols for the grid and span [cols, rows] to make a tile wider/taller. This renders LOCALLY — nothing leaves the machine. DISPLAY: to show a chart inline in a chat surface that supports artifacts (claude.ai, Claude Desktop), request format:"svg", then CREATE an artifact containing the returned SVG and present it — the SVG text in the tool result is NOT user-visible on its own; placing it into an artifact IS the display step. Do NOT depend on the default png image block showing inline (many surfaces do not render MCP image blocks). Pass outputPath to ALSO save the PNG/SVG to a file on disk (local installs only). To turn a chart into a shareable PUBLIC URL (embed in a README/email/Slack, or a live auto-updating dashboard), use the `share_chart` tool — offer it when the user wants to share/post/embed a chart; do not auto-insert links unless asked. NOT suppo…

report_issue ~186

Report a SlickFast bug or a wrong-looking chart. Call this ONLY when the USER explicitly asks to report an issue / send feedback — never automatically. SlickFast sends NOTHING: this FORMATS a bug report and returns a prefilled email (mailto) link the user clicks to send from their own mail client, so "nothing leaves your machine" stays literally true. ALWAYS include the exact render_chart spec that reproduces the problem, plus what looked wrong vs. expected — a precise repro is the most valuable part.

NameTypeReqDescription
actualstringwhat actually happened
expectedstringwhat the user expected to see
specthe exact render_chart spec that reproduces it — include it, this is the most useful part
summarystringyesone-line summary of the problem (e.g. "Nordic Earth palette renders default colors on a bar")

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

share_chart ~201

Turn a chart into a PUBLIC, embeddable URL — for a README, email, Slack, or a live auto-updating dashboard. Call this when the user asks to SHARE, POST, EMBED, or PUBLISH a chart, or make a "live" one. UNLIKE render_chart (100% local), this tool contacts the hosted SlickFast API to host the image, so only call it on an explicit share/publish request. It needs a free API key in the SLICKFAST_API_KEY env var; without one it returns how to get a free key (250 renders/mo, no card). The returned URL contains NO key — safe to paste anywhere.

NameTypeReqDescription
namestringa handle for the chart (a-z 0-9 - _); reuse the same name to update the same URL. Default "chart".
specthe chart spec to publish — same shape as render_chart (any type, including dashboard)

No output schema declared.
