Security Report

6.8
Moderate6.8Moderate Risk

ChartOne MCP is a chart rendering client that forwards chart data to the ChartOne hosted API (api.chartone.dev) and returns images and persistent URLs, which matches its stated purpose. Authentication is optional via a Bearer API key from env config, and the key is not hardcoded or logged. Main considerations are that user chart data is sent to a third-party hosted service and persisted there with URLs, and the server has minimal code quality issues such as the error-swallowing empty catch around JSON parsing and a test-only placeholder API key in documentation. Supply chain analysis found 1 known vulnerability in dependencies (0 critical, 1 high severity). Package verification found 1 issue.

Branded chart rendering for AI agents. Hosted MCP, zero setup.

Install

Claude Desktop

Add to ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json (Windows):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "chartone": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@chartone/mcp"],
      "env": {
        "CHARTONE_API_KEY": "sk-..."
      }
    }
  }
}

Restart Claude Desktop. Anonymous mode (no key) returns watermarked charts.

Cursor / Zed / Windsurf

Same config shape, in each client's MCP settings file. See docs.chartone.dev/mcp for current paths.

Hosted endpoint (beta)

For cloud agents that can't run local stdio servers:

POST https://api.chartone.dev/mcp
Authorization: Bearer sk-...   (optional, anonymous returns watermark)
Content-Type: application/json

Body: { "method": "tools/list" }  or  { "method": "tools/call", "params": {...} }

Tools

  • render_chart — render a chart from explicit type, data, theme.
  • suggest_chart — give it data + intent ("show quarterly trends"), it picks the chart type/theme and renders.

Both return an inline image plus a persistent hosted URL.

Get an API key

Sign up at chartone.dev. Free tier includes a generous render quota; paid tiers remove the watermark and extend URL lifetime.
