Most AI assistants can answer questions about code, summarize documents, or help you draft an email. What they cannot do is connect to your data warehouse, reason over your actual data, and hand back a verified answer — from inside the tools you already use. Ana’s MCP server changes that. Any MCP-compatible client can now call Ana directly, get a warehouse-backed answer, and receive a link to the full TextQL thread — all without leaving the tool you’re already working in.

​
The Endpoint and Tools

MCP endpoint: https://app.textql.com/mcp By default Ana exposes a focused set of tools:
  • ana — ask any natural-language question. Ana connects to your warehouse through your configured connectors and Ontology, runs the analysis, and returns the answer plus a link to the full chat thread in TextQL. This call is synchronous and can take up to a minute.
  • ana_ask / ana_poll — the streaming version, for clients with short request timeouts. ana_ask starts the analysis and returns immediately; ana_poll streams progress, answer text, charts, and report links until the run completes.
  • list_connectors — list the data connectors you can target, so you can scope a question to a specific source.
This is the same Ana that runs in TextQL — with access to your connected warehouses and your Ontology, consumable headlessly from any MCP-compatible surface. Charts, dashboards, and reports come back as resource links directly in your client. Beyond these defaults, Ana can also expose a managed-sandbox toolset for running code and queries — see Tool groups & modes.

What Ana Returns

When you ask Ana a question, it returns:
  • The answer — a plain-language response grounded in your actual warehouse data
  • A thread link — a URL to the full chat thread in TextQL, where you can explore further, share results, or dig into the SQL
  • Resource links — charts, dashboards, and reports are returned as links directly in your client

Next Steps

Connecting a client

Add Ana to Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, ChatGPT, Copilot, or Claude Code, and authorize once over OAuth.

Tool groups & modes

Scope which tools a connection exposes, and let your assistant load tools on demand.

Managing access

Review and revoke authorized clients as a user or an org admin.

External MCP servers

Bring tools like Notion, GitHub, or internal APIs into Ana’s context.
