What is the Cube.dev MCP Server?

Connect your Cube.dev instance to any AI agent to bridge the gap between natural language and your data warehouse. This server allows your agent to interact with Cube's semantic layer, ensuring consistent metrics and high-performance data retrieval.

What you can do

Data Querying — Execute complex REST API queries using load_query to fetch aggregated data with measures, dimensions, and filters.
SQL Inspection — Use get_sql and execute_cube_sql to debug or run raw queries against the SQL API for deep data investigation.
Metadata Exploration — Retrieve cube definitions, views, and segments via get_meta to understand your data model without leaving the chat.
Performance Management — Trigger and monitor background pre-aggregation builds with trigger_pre_aggregation_job to ensure your dashboards stay fast.
Cloud Management — List deployments and environments if using Cube Cloud to manage your infrastructure context.

How it works

Who is this for?

Data Engineers — quickly verify data models and trigger cache refreshes via CLI or AI interface.
Analytics Engineers — debug generated SQL and inspect metadata to ensure metric consistency.
Product Managers — get instant answers to data questions by letting the AI query the semantic layer directly.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can I see the exact SQL that Cube generates for a specific query?

Yes. You can use the get_sql tool. By providing the query JSON, the agent will return the generated SQL string, which is perfect for debugging or verifying your data logic.

How do I refresh the data cache or pre-aggregations using the AI?

You can use the trigger_pre_aggregation_job tool. You can specify which cubes or data sources to target, and the agent will initiate the background build process for you.

Is it possible to explore the available measures and dimensions?

Absolutely. Use the get_meta tool to fetch all metadata. This allows the AI to understand what data is available to be queried, including views and segments.

How does Claude Desktop discover MCP tools?

When Claude Desktop starts, it reads the claude_desktop_config.json file and connects to each configured MCP server. It calls the tools/list endpoint to fetch the schema for every available tool, then surfaces them as clickable options in the chat interface via the 🔌 icon.

What happens if the MCP server is temporarily unavailable?

Claude Desktop handles disconnections gracefully. if the server is unreachable at startup, the tools simply won't appear. Once the server becomes available again, restarting Claude Desktop will re-establish the connection. There is no timeout penalty or error loop.

Can I connect multiple MCP servers simultaneously?

Yes. You can add as many servers as you need in the mcpServers section of the config file. Each server appears as a separate tool provider, and Claude can use tools from multiple servers in a single conversation turn.

Is there a limit on the number of tools per server?

Claude Desktop can handle hundreds of tools per server. However, for optimal LLM performance, Vinkius servers are designed to expose focused, well-documented tool sets rather than overwhelming the model with too many options.

Does Claude Desktop support Streamable HTTP transport?

Yes. Claude Desktop supports both SSE (Server-Sent Events) and the newer Streamable HTTP transport that Vinkius uses. Simply provide the server URL. Claude auto-negotiates the transport protocol.
