✦MCPViews

Give your AI agents a visual interface

MCPViews is an open-source, free-to-use companion that transforms plain-text tool output into interactive, beautifully rendered content — tables, diagrams, code reviews, and more. Through the Model Context Protocol, agents push rich content to a companion window.

Why MCPViews?

🔌

Plugin System

Install renderers for any data type. From database schemas to API docs, each plugin knows how to display its content.

🔄

Live API Hydration

Renderers call your backend API directly, fetching live data and enabling real-time interactions — blending MCP orchestration with native app UIs.

✅

Review Workflows

Accept or reject changes inline. Schema migrations, document edits, and code reviews all support interactive approval.

📊

Structured Data

Sortable, filterable tables with hierarchical rows, change tracking, and review mode with per-row accept/reject.

🎨

Theme Support

Dark and light modes that match your editor. MCPViews adapts to your workflow.

🔀

Bi-directional

User interactions in the companion window flow back to the agent as context for its next response.
