Frequently asked questions
What are the runtime requirements?
Python 3.12, a Quip API token, and the Quip platform base URL (optional). It uses `uv` for dependency management and can run via `uvx` or `pip`.
Where does spreadsheet data live?
Data is stored locally in CSV files at the configured `--storage-path` (default: `~/.quip-mcp-server/storage`). Resource URIs reference these files using `quip://` or `file://` protocols.
What are the known limits?
Large spreadsheets are truncated to 10KB in the tool response, but complete content is accessible via resource URIs. Non-spreadsheet documents return an error.
What transports/auth are supported?
Stdio transport (and optionally HTTP in the TypeScript version). Authentication uses a Quip API token set via `QUIP_TOKEN` environment variable.
