What is OpenBB Widgets JSON?

It's an MCP server that provides programmatic, structured access to OpenBB's `widgets.json` specifications, allowing developers and AI assistants to easily query widget types and configurations.

How does OpenBB Widgets JSON simplify development?

By exposing widget specifications as callable tools, it eliminates manual documentation parsing, making it faster and easier to generate valid JSON specs and build compliant OpenBB applications.

Is this tool useful for AI coding assistants?

Absolutely. It's specifically designed to help AI coding assistants programmatically access OpenBB widget details, accelerating the generation of accurate and compliant widget code.

What types of OpenBB specifications are accessible?

You can access detailed documentation on widget configurations, various parameter types (e.g., text, date, dropdowns), JSON specifications for widgets, apps, and agents, plus essential boilerplate code.

Exposes OpenBB widgets.json specifications as structured, callable tools for programmatic access.

This tool serves as an MCP (Meta-Call Protocol) server, making OpenBB's widgets.json specification available as structured, callable tools. Instead of manually parsing extensive documentation, developers and AI coding assistants can directly query widget types, inputs, and configuration examples. Each widget type is mapped to its own tool, facilitating the generation and combination of valid JSON specifications for building new OpenBB applications. Built with FastMCP and programmatically generated from the OpenBB developer documentation, it's designed to streamline the development of OpenBB widgets and applications.
