Download the Power BI MCP Server extension VISX to your machine from: https://analysis-services.gallery.vsassets.io/_apis/public/gallery/publisher/analysis-services/extension/powerbi-modeling-mcp/latest/assetbyname/Microsoft.VisualStudio.Services.VSIXPackage (this is the VISX for: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=analysis-services.powerbi-modeling-mcp)
Once you have downloaded and extracted the files to a local folder (below example uses "C:\Tools\kiro\"), you can update the mcp.json with the following
{
"mcpServers": {
"powerbi-modeling-mcp": {
"command": "C:\\Tools\\kiro\\extension\\server\\powerbi-modeling-mcp.exe",
"args": [
"--start",
"--skipconfirmation"
],
"type": "stdio",
"disabled": false
}
}
}The manual steps to do this are also documented here: https://github.com/microsoft/powerbi-modeling-mcp?tab=readme-ov-file#manual-install. Skip the first section that uses Node.js and use the steps documented in Manual Download
