📖 项目简介

PlotBase-FigureMemory 是一个专门面向 AI Agent、大语言模型以及科研人员的 Model Context Protocol (MCP) 服务。

参考 PlotBase 图表馆藏索引系统的架构设计,本 MCP 服务将绝大部分科研图表(如山脊图、拟时热图、折线图、密度图、火山图、云雨图、曼哈顿图等)提炼为包含 5 大维度的完整制作档案(Figure Archive):

┌────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│                        图表制作档案 (Figure Archive)                   │
├────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│ 1. 📌 图表元数据 (Metadata)   : 标题、分类大类、图表类型、R/Python依赖库  │
│ 2. 💻 示例源码 (Executable Code): 包含完整可调优的 R(ggplot2)/Python代码 │
│ 3. 📊 示例数据集 (Sample Data): CSV/JSON数据结构与示例字段映射         │
│ 4. 🎨 视觉审美规则 (Visual Rules): 顶刊配色色盘、排版比例、字号与主题规则  │
│ 5. 🤖 Agent 上下文 (Agent Context): AI Agent 专属修改指导与数据映射规则│
└────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘

🚀 核心功能与 MCP Tools

本 MCP 服务提供了一套完备的 JSON-RPC 接口供 Claude、Cursor、Windsurf、Antigravity 等 LLM 客户端调用:

| Tool 名称 | 参数 | 说明 | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | list_categories() | 无 | 列出馆藏的所有分类索引(类别比较、数据关系、组学研究、数据分布)及图表数量统计 | | search_figures(...) | query, category, chart_type, framework, tag | 在制作档案库中根据分类、图表类型、编程语言或关键词模糊检索 | | get_figure_archive(...) | figure_id | 获取某张图表的完整制作档案(源码、示例数据、审美规则及 Agent 上下文) | | create_figure_archive(...) | title, category, chart_type, framework, code, description, ... | 向 PlotBase 记忆库中保存/导入新研发的图表制作档案 | | recommend_figure(...) | data_description, goal | 智能推荐引擎:根据用户输入的数据特征与研究绘图目标推荐最佳图表方案 | | render_figure_template(...) | figure_id, column_mapping, color_palette, title_override | 代码生成与适配:将模板代码替换为用户的数据列名与颜色配置,直接输出可执行代码 |


🌐 资源 (Resources) & 提示词 (Prompts)

📌 Resources

  • plotbase://categories: 读取全库图表分类层级与实时统计信息。
  • plotbase://figures/{figure_id}: 读取指定图表的制作档案资源。

💬 Prompts

  • generate_scientific_plot: 引导 Agent 从需求分析到制作档案提取、代码适配与视觉调优的完整流程。
  • adapt_figure_for_dataset: 引导 Agent 将指定图表档案精准适配至用户的数据集结构。

🛠️ 安装与配置指南

1. 环境准备

本服务依赖 Python 3.10+ 和 mcp 官方 SDK:

pip install "mcp[cli]"

2. 部署与测试

你可以直接在终端运行测试套件:

python3 /tmp/plotbase_mcp/test_server.py

3. 配置到 Claude Desktop

编辑 Claude Desktop 配置文件:

  • macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
  • Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

添加如下 MCP 配置:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "plotbase-figurememory": {
      "command": "python3",
      "args": [
        "/tmp/plotbase_mcp/server.py"
      ]
    }
  }
}

4. 配置到 Cursor / Windsurf / Claude Code

在支持 MCP 的编辑器的配置文件或 MCP Settings 中加入:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "plotbase": {
      "command": "python3",
      "args": ["/tmp/plotbase_mcp/server.py"]
    }
  }
}

💡 Agent 实际调用示例

场景一:智能推荐与制作档案提取

用户问:"我有一组单细胞 RNA-seq 发育轨迹拟时序数据,想要画一张展示基因表达变化的图,有什么推荐?"

  1. Agent 调用 recommend_figure(data_description="单细胞 RNA-seq 发育轨迹拟时序", goal="展示基因表达变化")
  2. MCP 返回推荐项:fig_monocle2_heatmap_02 (ggplot修饰monocle2拟时热图)
  3. Agent 调用 get_figure_archive("fig_monocle2_heatmap_02") 获得全套制作档案,包括 pheatmap 绘图代码、Z-score 标准化规则以及针对 Pseudotime 渐变条的配置说明。

场景二:一键列映射与代码定制

用户问:"帮我用 PlotBase 的山脊图模板画图,我的数据列名是 CellType 和 Expression,颜色要用 magma。"

  1. Agent 调用 render_figure_template("fig_ridge_ggplot2_01", column_mapping={"value": "Expression", "group": "CellType"}, color_palette="magma")
  2. MCP 直接输出重构并调整过变量与颜色的完整 R 源码,交付用户运行。
