SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Manually editing a project's .mcp.json to register a Redash MCP server for each environment (dev, stg, prod2, sandbox) is repetitive and error-prone. This Skill automates that registration with a single command. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Environment-specific MCP registration: Adds a Redash MCP entry to the project .mcp.json using any suffix you provide (dev, stg, prod2, sandbox, etc.). - Cross-runtime path resolution: Locates the Skill directory across Claude Code, Codex, and Kiro CLI by checking the plugin root, an explicit path, and .kiro/skills symlinks in order. - Use Case: You are setting up a new project that needs to query a staging Redash instance. Run the Skill with the suffix "stg" and the corresponding Redash MCP server is written into .mcp.json automatically. ## Quick Start Ask the AI to run the redash-add skill with the suffix "dev" to register the dev Redash MCP server in the project .mcp.json.

Frequently Asked Questions about redash-add

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I add a Redash MCP server to my project configuration?▼

Run the redash-add skill with an environment suffix such as dev or stg. It executes the redash-mcp-config.js script with Node.js, which writes the Redash MCP entry into your project's .mcp.json file.

What environment suffixes can I use when adding a Redash MCP?▼

Any suffix string works, including dev, stg, prod2, and sandbox. The suffix is passed as the argument to the add command and identifies which Redash environment the MCP entry points to.

Does redash-add work with Kiro CLI and Codex, not just Claude Code?▼

Yes. The Skill resolves its directory by checking the Claude Code plugin root, an explicitly provided path, and .kiro/skills locations in order, so it works across Claude Code, Codex, and Kiro CLI installations.

Why does redash-add fail with a directory resolution error?▼

The error occurs when none of the candidate paths contain the redash-mcp-config.js script two levels up. Ensure the plugin is installed correctly or that the Skill directory path is passed explicitly by the runtime.

What are the requirements to run redash-add?▼

You need Node.js available on the system and Bash execution permission, since the Skill runs node against the redash-mcp-config.js script. The target project must allow writing to its .mcp.json file.
