Tabulous Agent Plugin

Connects AI agents to a Tabulous lab data workspace over the Model Context Protocol.

This plugin follows the Agent Plugins open standard. It contains no code: it points your agent at the hosted Tabulous MCP server at https://app.tabulous.ai/mcp.

What agents can do

Once connected, an agent can:

• List Registry Tables and read records from them
• Browse files stored in a record's folder
• Look up Toolkit items, workspace members, and workspace info
• Stage changes (records, schema, Toolkit items, files) as a changeset for review

Agents cannot write to your workspace directly. Every change is staged as a changeset with a review link, and a person approves it in Tabulous before anything goes live. Read docs through the MCP server for the full agent workflow guide.

Installation

Cursor

Install Tabulous from the Cursor Marketplace, or add the plugin manually:

git clone https://github.com/labscape/tabulous-agent-plugin ~/.cursor/plugins/local/tabulous

Then run Developer: Reload Window. The Tabulous MCP server appears under Customize.

Any other MCP client

Add a remote (Streamable HTTP) MCP server with this URL:

https://app.tabulous.ai/mcp

The client will open a browser window to sign in with your Tabulous account.

Authentication

The server uses OAuth 2.1 with Dynamic Client Registration. No API keys or configuration variables are required. On first use your MCP client redirects you to Tabulous to sign in; the resulting token is scoped to your user and organization, so the agent sees exactly what you can see.

By default only workspace admins can connect agents. Admins can open it up to all members under Settings > Integrations > External Agents in Tabulous.
