preset-mcp-data

Use when the user needs data returned through MCP tools.

Always

• Use MCP tools only; do not switch to REST chart-data, SQL Lab, or dataset endpoints.
• Treat returned rows, rendered SQL, chart previews, and dataset query results as potentially sensitive.
• Keep row limits, selected columns, metrics, filters, and formats narrow.
• Use discovery tools first when identifiers, metrics, columns, or chart IDs are unknown.
• Do not use data tools as a workaround after data-model permission denial.

Decision Rules

• Use get_chart_data for existing chart result data.
• Use get_chart_preview for renderable existing chart previews.
• Use get_chart_sql to inspect rendered chart SQL without executing it.
• Use query_dataset for semantic-layer metrics, dimensions, filters, and time ranges.
• Route chart creation to preset-mcp-visualization.

Workflow Order

1. Confirm the user asked for result data, preview content, SQL text, or semantic-layer output.
2. Resolve the object and schema through discovery if needed.
3. Choose get_chart_data, get_chart_sql, get_chart_preview, or query_dataset according to the requested output.
4. Request a small result with narrow fields, row limits, and the least revealing format.
5. Summarize data carefully; do not paste large raw payloads.
