KX Dashboards Knowledge

A Claude Code plugin for building KX Dashboards from natural language. It bundles the component-focused skills used to generate schema-valid dashboard JSON for grids, charts, maps, forms, containers, actions, and related dashboard features.

Documentation search (MCP)

This plugin bundles the kx-docs-mcp server (registered automatically on install as plugin:kx-dashboards-knowledge:kx-docs-mcp). Claude uses it to search KX product documentation. It needs no setup or authentication on your part — the connection is preconfigured. Confirm it after install with /mcp.

Install

From inside Claude Code, with the kx-skills marketplace already added:

/plugin install kx-dashboards-knowledge@kx-skills

If you have not added the marketplace yet:

/plugin marketplace add KxSystems/kx-skills
/plugin install kx-dashboards-knowledge@kx-skills

After installation, the skills auto-trigger when Claude detects a KX Dashboards task. Start every dashboard-generation request with kx-dashboard-core.

Quick start

  1. Load kx-dashboard-core first. It owns the shared dashboard envelope, screen and widget wrapper, data sources, ViewState, binding patterns, actions, notifications, and the pre-flight checklist.
  2. Add the component skill that matches the feature you want to create.
  3. Use the most specific skill for the job rather than a generic container or chart skill.

Examples:

  • Flat, row-based browsing and table-style exploration → kx-datagrid
  • Pivoted, aggregated, or drilldown analysis → kx-pivot-grid
  • Charts, maps, forms, inputs, containers, and other UI primitives → the matching kx-* skill in this plugin

Each skill folder contains a SKILL.md file with the skill body and YAML frontmatter. Some skills also ship additional reference assets, such as kx-pivot-grid/reference/ files or kx-dashboard-core/generate.js.
