Exposing your data over MCP is the easy part. Designing a tool an agent uses well is the hard part. An agent can only use a tool it can read, so the work is shaping the tool for how the model calls it, not just for the human looking at the result. These are the techniques behind @bonnard/mcp-charts and the visualize tool. Discovery-first, so the agent stops guessing An agent that guesses your schema writes wrong queries. So the first tool the agent meets is a discovery tool. It calls visualize_read_me to load the chart options, the tool schema, and worked examples before it ever calls visualize , and an explore_schema tool to learn your tables and columns before it writes SQL. The agent reads, then acts. A small set of purpose-built tools The temptation is one tool per metric, or a single tool that takes arbitrary SQL and hopes. Both fail: too many tools blow the agent's attention budget; one firehose tool gives it no guardrails. Bonnard ships a small set, discover, query, visualize, each with a narrow, obvious job. The agent picks the right one because there are few of them and each does one thing. // a small, purpose-built set, not one tool per metric server . registerTool ( " explore_schema " , { /* list tables + columns */ }, listSchema ); addCharts ( server , { runSql }); // registers visualize_read_me + visualize Compact, honest responses A tool that returns 10,000 raw rows poisons the context window and the agent's next decision. Bonnard's responses are sized for a model to read: Row caps with a completeness flag. Results are capped and tagged partial or complete , so the agent knows whether it is looking at everything. Partial-result warnings. When results are capped, the response says so and tells the agent not to sum or average the visible rows, use a measure instead. Summaries over dumps. The chart comes back with a compact text summary the model can reason over, not just an image it cannot read. Errors that guide the next action A bare "error: invalid co

DPDP compliance costs for Indian startups: what to budget before 13 May 2027 Summary. Full compliance with India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act is due on 13 May 2027. That is the date consent, notice, security safeguards, breach intimation and data-principal rights all become enforceable, and it is roughly 10 months away. The DPDP Rules 2025 were notified on 13 November 2025 and land in three phases: the Data Protection Board of India stood up immediately, penalties and Consent Manager registration begin on 13 November 2026, and everything else bites on 13 May 2027. The penalty schedule is not proportionate to your size: up to ₹250 crore for failing reasonable security safeguards, ₹200 crore for failing to notify a breach, and ₹150 crore for missing Significant Data Fiduciary obligations. There is no revenue or headcount exemption. The cost gap is where founders get hurt. Vendors routinely quote ₹15 lakh to ₹2 crore for DPDPA compliance, while a startup under 10,000 users can be substantively compliant for under ₹50,000 a year. India's privacy and data governance market is worth roughly $1 billion to $1.5 billion today, per IDfy founder Ashok Hariharan speaking to Inc42 in April 2026, and a lot of that revenue depends on you not reading the rules yourself. This is a budgeting guide, not a legal opinion. The rules are short. Read them, then price the work. The deadline that actually matters There are three dates, and only one of them is a real deadline for most startups. Phase Date What switches on Does it affect a typical startup? Phase 1 13 November 2025 Data Protection Board of India established, Rules notified No direct obligation, but the Board can already receive complaints Phase 2 13 November 2026 Consent Manager registration opens, penalty framework and enforcement powers begin Only if you intend to register as a Consent Manager Phase 3 13 May 2027 Notice, consent, security safeguards, breach intimation, retention, children's data, data-principal righ
