Showboard MCP

Showboard is an open-source MCP server that allows coding agents to generate dashboards, charts, and tables from read-only SQL queries on Postgres, SQLite, Excel, or CSV data. It enables agents to answer questions with visual data representations rather than text paragraphs, supporting features like saved recipes and boards for reusable analysis across various MCP-compatible agents.
