### Description (declared)

# dax-query-mcp

[![PyPI](https://img.shields.io/pypi/v/dax-query-mcp)](https://pypi.org/project/dax-query-mcp/)

MCP server for running DAX queries against Power BI semantic models.

Check out [making use of skills and extensions](docs/dax-mcp-skill-and-extension-guide.md) for getting better results since the MCP can't do it all

## Features

- **Connection-centric MCP server** — discover models, query with DAX, inspect schemas
- **Relationship-aware context** — teach the LLM your model with markdown, structured dictionaries, relationships, and progressive context bundles
- **Fuzzy search** — search columns and measures across tables by name or description
- **Server-authored follow-ups** — every query response includes a durable next-step workflow for exports, charts, scaffolds, and workstation saves
- **Export anywhere** — CSV, clipboard, Power Query M code, Streamlit apps, standalone Python projects
- **Query builder** — save `.dax` + `.dax.queryBuilder` artifacts, open directly in DAX Studio
- **Workstation session** — save, list, and batch-export queries during an exploration session
- **Durable query packs** — turn saved DAX into portable packs with a manifest, batch runner, Streamlit explorer, and Power Query files
- **Validated query libraries** — keep connection-scoped, known-good DAX examples that improve future context without creating a full pack

## Prerequisites

1. **uv** — Python package manager. Install with:
   ```powershell
   winget install astral-sh.uv
   ```
2. **For MSOLAP connections: Windows + MSOLAP provider** — the default transport uses COM/ADODB.
   Download from [Microsoft](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/analysis-services/client-libraries?view=asallproducts-allversions) — grab the **"AMO + ADOMD.NET"** or **"MSOLAP (OLE DB)"** installer. If you already have Power BI Desktop, Excel with Power Pivot, or SSMS installed, you likely have it.
   
   To check: open PowerShell and run:
   ```powershell
   (New-Object System.Data.OleDb.OleD…
