Guides

Practical guides — how to connect Instadash to your agent, how to push structured data, how mesh-augmented generation works.

Hosted MCP server for Claude, Cursor, and Windsurf

Instadash runs a hosted, OAuth-authenticated MCP server at mcp.instadash.io. Paste it into Claude Desktop, Cursor, or any MCP client; your agent gains tools to push JSON, read rows, query, and search structured data without you running infrastructure.

Mesh-augmented generation vs RAG, explained

Retrieval-augmented generation pulls unstructured text into an LLM prompt. Mesh-augmented generation does the same for structured data — agents query a public mesh of live, queryable grids that are schema-typed, citation-bearing, and addressable by URL, instead of scraping or re-prompting.

Turn JSON, JSONL, or CSV into an API for AI agents

You have JSON, JSONL, or CSV and you want it accessible to AI agents as an API. Instadash turns any structured file into a hosted grid with a JSON API, search index, and MCP endpoint — one CLI push command, no server to deploy.
