Overview

## What Charts by Szum does

Charts by Szum, from Bartosz Prusinowski, converts data and a plain description into a chart with a defined config behind it. The workflow the listing describes is validate, preview, then optionally save: a saved chart gets permanent image and interactive embed links, and can be reopened, updated, renamed, or deleted later from either the conversation or Szum Studio. Curated themes and worked examples are available to draw on when choosing a look. Twelve tools are claimed and the endpoint returned thirteen. The connector is community tier with documentation on file; library operations require authentication, while rendering a preview is the step the listing puts first.

### Who it is for

Analysts and report writers who need publication-ready charts with stable embed links.

### Tool surface

The thirteen observed tools form a full lifecycle around one object: \`validate\_chart\` and \`render\_chart\` for a transient preview, \`save\_chart\`, \`update\_chart\`, \`rename\_chart\`, and \`delete\_chart\` for the persisted library, and \`list\_themes\`, \`list\_marks\`, and \`get\_examples\` as reference lookups feeding the config. The endpoint returned one more tool than the listing claims.

Availability

## Where Charts by Szum is listed

Charts by Szum is listed in the Claude connectors directory only. Bartosz Prusinowski has no app under the same domain in the ChatGPT directory; 392 of the 3,150 products here are on both marketplaces, and this is not one of them.

The MCP server behind a Claude connector is usually the same server a ChatGPT app would need, so the absence is a distribution decision rather than a technical one.

Claude listing

## In the Claude connectors directory

Charts by Szum publishes 12 tools to Claude. That is a mid-sized surface: 51.4% of the 1,253 Claude-listed connectors expose fewer.

That is exactly the median for Claude-listed connectors under Data & Analytics, where 198 publish counts and 12 is the middle of the distribution.

It falls in the 11-20 tools band, which holds 22.5% of the Claude directory.

### Measured against the live endpoint

A direct call to the endpoint returned 13 tools, 1 more than the 12 the listing publishes. Probed 2026-08-07.

#### Tools the server actually returns

-   `render_chart`
-   `save_chart`
-   `list_charts`
-   `get_chart`
-   `get_chart_config`
-   `get_preview_state`
-   `update_chart`
-   `rename_chart`
-   `delete_chart`
-   `validate_chart`
-   `list_themes`
-   `list_marks`
-   `get_examples`

Charts by Szum publishes a remote MCP endpoint. Claude connects to it over HTTP; there is nothing to install locally.

Every connector in the Claude directory is remote, all 1,253 of them, so transport is not a differentiator there.

In the publisher's words

## How Bartosz Prusinowski describes it

> After connecting, start a new chat and say: "Use Charts by Szum to create an editorial bar chart from this data: North 42, South 35, East 28, West 31.". Charts by Szum helps Claude turn plain-language requests and raw data into publication-ready charts. It can explore curated themes and examples, validate the chart definition, and display an interactive preview with an SVG or PNG image link. When you want to keep a result, save it for permanent image and interactive embed links, then reopen, update, rename, or delete it from Claude or Szum Studio. Useful for reports, presentations, product work, and dashboards.
