Best for
  • Users who need rapid AntV chart generation from an MCP client
  • Workflows combining chart generation with basic data analysis
  • Geographic visualization scenarios limited to China
  • Biomedical researchers
  • Clinicians
  • AI agents that need efficient access to biomedical literature and data analysis
Not for
  • Scenarios requiring maps outside China
  • Private deployments that require geographic visualization tools
  • Users who do not want requests sent to the default public chart-generation service
  • Users needing to write to upstream databases (read-only)
  • Users requiring direct access to closed datasets (e.g., COSMIC is not directly integrated)
  • Users expecting all advanced features without API keys
Required permissions
  • The client must be able to launch npx or an installed MCP server process
  • By default, network access to https://antv-studio.alipay.com/api/gpt-vis is required
  • When configured, SERVICE_ID must be supplied; the manifest marks this variable as secret
  • Private deployments require network access to the configured VIS_REQUEST_SERVER URL
  • Requires internet access to query public biomedical APIs
  • Optional API keys (NCBI, Semantic Scholar, OpenFDA, etc.) to improve rate limits or unlock features
  • Local read/write access for skills, cache, and local study data (e.g., `~/.local/share/biomcp`)
Risks and side effects
  • By default, chart requests are sent to the public AntV chart-generation service, so data sensitivity should be considered
  • Geographic visualization currently supports maps within China only
  • The private-deployment solution does not support geographic-district-map, geographic-path-map, or geographic-pin-map
  • SERVICE_ID is used to track chart-generation records; mishandling it may affect record access or expose the identifier
  • Client compatibility issues may require disabling specific tools with DISABLED_TOOLS
  • Upstream API rate limits may affect performance
  • Some data sources (e.g., KEGG) have licensing terms that restrict non-academic use
  • Features requiring API keys (e.g., OncoKB) may be incomplete without them
  • Local binary installations need regular updates for compatibility
